UPS delivered my Stretch Mark 2 today. Color me happy at last. Unfortunately I have to wait until later tomorrow to put it together and spray Fabric Coat on the deck because my Father in Law is very close to death at a hospital close by. He is almost 92 and his time here has almost ended. He has been a great Father in Law to me and over the last 2 months being able to help with his care has been a privilege. I just call him Dad!

Everything I have seen so far looks great but most of it is still in the 2 boxes.

Assembly and "First water" reports to come:

Yeah, life can get complex. But family is more important than recreational paddling - so you're doing the right things.

Irrespective, congrats on the acquisition; sounds terrific!

Congratulations, how exciting, looking forward to photos and tales of how you find it. I'm sorry to hear about your father-in-law though, wishing him a peaceful passing.
