@trndny09:

Bob has that fever .. wood boat fever. This can be a very dangerous
condition.



This condition IS treatable. Find someone with a wooden boat and offer him
Bob and Bob's sander, every weekend for the next month, to help him do what
he does all the time....sand and paint...sand and paint.

Bob'll soon come to his senses and start looking for a nice FIBERGLASS boat
to SAIL not SAND on weekends.

Wood nostalgia is wonderful during that first hour of sanding, but wanes
quickly as the sun tops the mast....
