I was writing about 3 weeks spent of a friends boat on lake Erie recreating watercolors lost in Argentina. A day or two after we got Alan's boat in the water I helped Markus get his new/old 40 foot + wooden sailboat over to his slip with no mishaps. A few days later he called me back and said he and a friend were going to take it out for a little shake down cruise. It was a fairly blustery day, sunny with 3 -4 foot swells. I hadn't actually made any watercolors yet and wanted to get started but decided I wanted to go with Markus on his new boat instead. It's a beauty for sure. Newly restored after an Ohio winter's worth of work in the back yard scraping, sanding and painting the hull and redoing much of the interior. I was supposed to help with some of the hand work but could never get free when Markus was able to work. So Markus did it all. I'm always impressed at his industrious nature, his knowledge and creative resolve. He did nearly all the work himself from bending wood to repair the hull breaches, painting and re-stitching sails. He's an ace at maintaining a motor and has refit his diesel to burn 30 percent bio-fuel. Remarkable! Normally I'd simply call this green thinking but in this market any saving is appreciated with the price of diesel often above $4.50 a gallon.
