Thanks for the compliments. With any luck I'll have more from this winter.

Special note;Anybody checking out the outrigger davits in the skiff picture for ideas on how to set one up, those davits seriously need to have a gusset welded in the inside of the bends, in my opinion. Looks to me like you could just about bend those by hand.

I can't see the whole skiff on my screen.

I can invite you to my photobucket and maybe they will be easier for you to view, I have some other pics in there you might enjoy. The davits I was talking about were the ones in my friend's skiff, he's since strengthened them.
