Hi John,
Folks have been asking about your here at Manjack. We are now settled in where you used to anchor behind Rat Cay on a huge anchor that was dug deep in the sand for the season. Nev is fixing a dinghy, I am doing some gardening on island, and we plan a sail to grocery shop three islands down in a few days. I was thinking a few days ago that most nights I think back on the day and feel that I have been happy and joyful most of the time. I guess living on the water makes it that way. Want to come for a winter warmer? Love, Ann and Nev

Hi John,
I hope you are well - how goes the building?

John,
The book looks great, I may have to read it!
In the meantime, if you ever need an extra pair of hands, by all means, send me a message and I'll come on down.
Thanks for your message.
Bob

I hadn't considered that one. I'll most likely do the Wharram sliding window.
Probably use type 1 PVC for the rails. Have you ever seen Wiley ports? I have some on a small gaffer that I built. You can leave them open in the rain and still get some ventilation.
