Lea, she just cannot keep her hands off of the fellows!

Flybridge temporarily fitted for metal fabrication design.  Everything had to be placed on the roof for measuring and design of custom metal supports for flybrige canopy.                                               

Flybridge seating, rough-in, sitting in shop just before being placed on boat for final fitting.

This is an underside view of the unique spray rail design Tony designed for Gliding Gander and numerious other boats over the years.  The purpose and size of this rail design not only enables the boat to be drier, from less spray, but, it becomes an intregal part of the hull design that function almost as a sort of hydrofoil as the rail moves toward the stern.  On the Gliding Gander the rail lifted the bow significantly out of the water thereby increasing speed while improving efficiency.  When Gliding Gander went to the Bahamas in 2006 and 2007 the rail was three feet shorter.  By adding another three feet to the rail length we now have even more enhanced performance.

Lea caught off guard several times inspection us troops.

                                                                              

Poor Tony.  He didn't seem to mind hudding the First Mate near as much.
