The boat

My dad is an amazing guy.  Not only does he do maintenance for my presses, he motorized both of them, he diagnoses/fixes my every ailment and issue, and for his latest project...he is building a boat.  He retired two years ago and has taken full advantage of his more open schedule.  When finished it will be a 19 foot replica of a 1950's Chriscraft mahogany runabout.  Its starting to look like a boat.  He has lovingly cut, sanded and assembled every piece.


He also just had a birthday.  He turned 72.  Because the boat consumes so much of his current time and energy, it was sort of a boat themed birthday.  Here is the birthday card I made for him.
