Bugsy 699 Posted July 16, 2015 Share Posted July 16, 2015 The saga of FH is incomplete. A bit like reading a really long book only to find out the last chapter is missing. I would really like to hear first-hand about the voyage of FH, what ultimately caused the boat to fail and what Mr HotRod is up to now. Hearing him say "gee, that really wasn't very well thought through and I will learn from my mistakes" would be a nice ending (maybe for the movie) but I am not expecting that outcome. I look forward to reading the final chapter. And thanks again to everyone who made this thread so darn enjoyable and funny. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I know we were less than kind to him and wrote some nasty things, but we sure would like to hear about how things ended up. Lane was a "professional victim". He was convinced of his own superiority, and anything in his life that went wrong, was always due to bad luck, karma, circumstances "beyond his control" or people out to get him. He refused to acknowledge responsibility for anything. Do you really think that even if he came back here to tell the tale, that he'd be honest about what really happened? Now, he's broke, boatless and has a criminal record (or added to a rapsheet he may have already had). I'm sure he's blaming everything and everyone around him for it.

Pertinacious Tom 1,925 Posted October 19, 2015 Share Posted October 19, 2015 Tom how about a closing report on your plywood. Is it still alive unlike the FH? The plywood table still stands. This pic is a year old now: I have a newer one someplace but haven't bothered to upload it anywhere. It looks worse, but not much worse. It is significantly weaker but that's not something that comes through in a pic. It will still support a medium-sized cat and does regularly. One day, it will fail, most likely underneath the kitty. I hope I'm watching. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Pertinacious Tom 1,925 Posted October 19, 2015 Share Posted October 19, 2015 The plumbing evolved over time and doesn't look like that any more. Basically, it looked pretty normal and uncomplicated, then I added a greenhouse with its own supply line and another house with its own supply line. The latest "fix" was to replace the 1980's vintage main shutoff with two new ones, one for each house. Previously, I was unable to shut off one without shutting off all. Here's the old valve and the kitty and a random boat console on the table last August. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Pertinacious Tom 1,925 Posted October 20, 2015 Share Posted October 20, 2015 The main reason for going to two valves instead of one was that a copper line buried under concrete failed. Meanwhile, PVC lines buried at the same time are still working today. Yes, putting a new PVC line to replace the failed copper one was expensive, but not nearly as expensive as bracing the house so that I could destroy the concrete pad and columns on which it sits would have been.

senormechanico 0 Posted October 26, 2015 Share Posted October 26, 2015 Just for laughs, I entered flyin hawaiian in the eBay search box. Not a thing about the boat, just some stuff about a baseball player. There ought to be a model from Revell or some other toy company by now. At least a book or TV show... Come on HR ! You could be getting royalties by now ! http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_nkw=flyin%20hawaiian&clk_rvr_id=918668585489&mfe=search WTF ? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
