Lee,

You've built yourself a fine-looking teardrop! I love the blue color and the way you did your galley doors and hatch. When are you going camping?

Take care,
Tom

:o Ocean blue with a lighthouse theme? Good idea! The way the galley opens is clever and it looks like you put a pass through there so you can have your morning coffee in bed! I guess it's time to take that maiden voyage with her!!!! :applause:

Went out for the first time last weekend to the TearJerkers Usery park gathering. Everything work like it should. Slept good, ate good and had fun.

That looks great! DW wants me to ask you what brand and color that blue paint is. She loves it!
