Hey Jim -
This might be a good add-on to guys who have non- Engle 1/48 Gatos too. Hope you have her ready by SubRegatta time July 30-31, 2005 in Carmel, Indiana!

Tim,

Sorry for the delay in replying, but my computer hard drive did a crash dive, and I'm just now getting things back to normal (except for having lost everything that was on the drive...).

I am hopeful that my big Engel will be all functional by the time of the Carmel SubRegatta. Only 254 more limber holes to file open....... And I have yet to build and install the bow planes, but the mechanism looks great. Typically with my Engel project, there's a bit of engineering to be done as of yet!
