Today’s conference call had to be accomplished in 30 minutes to accommodate our schedules. So we were done in 45 minutes, not bad for so many big topics.I have to tell you that it is far easier to discuss granite and sinks than anchors and electr…

Quiet Day
Today was quiet – regarding the boat that is. One of the reasons today was quiet is because it was not quiet at work. I have yet to master the art of really getting office work done while talking to the KKY build team about granite, spotlig…

Day off from boat decisions
Though I didn’t make any boat decisions today, a 6 pm email from KKY set my thought processes in motion.Since the interior of this boat will be a brand new design, there are some changes that will occur without precedent. Since I am totally inept…
