    They build the most beautiful catboats! That's not Arey's Pond, tho.

    Ouch. That might not work out the way they hoped. Shrinkwrap applied directly to Awlgrip (or many paints) can peel or bubble the hull surface under certain conditions. It's not a good practice on gelcoat either.

      Tesla cyber trucks don't go with anything. A truck is a practical working tool. A Tesla truck is a doorstop for a very elegant, modern giant's castle.

    Beautiful craftsmanship, made all the more so when contrasted against the final photo's subject.

    I used to drive over to Areys Pond in the 80s to look at the nicest looking mahogany motorboat moored out in the pond.
