Each end had an air pocket sealed with lead. There is also a hole all the way through the air pocket where a stick holding a sail can be fitted.

Dad was feeling young and foolish, so applied mascara to his mustache and eyebrows. He looks like the villain in a high school one act play. :wink:
The two ladies are mother and daughter, and they lived in our fair city many years ago. They just happened to be traveling through,
and we ran across them at the local cafe.

Great pics, :D

Looks like Sparky might need to caulk the seams on that boat before he goes fishing. :lol: :lol: :lol:

The boat might cock without some caulk, and the list goes on. :wink:

Doesn't look muddy at all where you unloaded those Hf's. :wink: You must have an interesting dump. Ours are all covered over and we are not allowed to browse or shop there. :(
