: The Fat Cape Anne got it's final stringer put on last night and got cut off
: from it's strongback. Ready for the saran test to decide if I'll continue
: with this project or just have a big bon fire. I bought pallet wrap for
: the test, hopefully it will keep the water out long enough to actually try
: it out. Any experienced saran testers out there willing to share their
: thoughts on this subject.
