That's really nice and great job!

Has anyone done shark's teeth like an old P40 Warhawk? I think that would look perfect on our boats.

The airpark received an ingress and egress permit from Oregon Aeronautics Division and FAA on June 14, 1974. The permit was granted to the Airpark developers, James E. Preuit and Thomas W. Combest who developed the streets and subdivided the lots for private purchase. Since then the airpark has expanded to the north and the south and now has about 200 homes.

Actually that was one of my concept drawings when I was trying to figure out my paint scheme. The admiral did not approve of the design. :x I think I'm going to have to try and find the picture that I did and post it, standby:

Well, I had a number of these that I drew up, but they all used the same P40 teeth like the ones I drew here in this image.

Hi Chris (u12fly)

I don’t know if you are still around or have moved on to more interesting things.
I found several of your postings on the MacGregor Sailors Forum.
I do know that you put a lot of time, effort and creativity into your Mac26M SHEILAGENE 2.
Saw that you sold it back in 2016.

Just thought you might want to know that we came across SHEILAGENE 2 while we were spending time on Lake Champlain Vermont this past August, September & November (2021). The current owner Norm has been taking care of SHEILAGENE 2 and has been enjoying it very much.

He is based in Utah and has trailered SHEILAGENE 2 to a variety of places and shared several of his adventures.
He has made many happy memories and weathered some low points in life with the help of SHEILAGENE 2.
Norm is a remarkable person in more ways than I can relate.

He arrived on Lake Champlain VT the same day we did at the same boat launch.
We left Lake Champlain within a week or so of each other.

Norm is now in his late 70s yet still rides a bicycle everywhere and competes regularly in the Seniors Ironman Events.
He was at Lake Champlain to attend a hand wood working college class.

He appreciates, enjoys and is taking care of SHEILAGENE 2.

Just thought you might want to know that your former vessel, hard work and creativity continue on, is being actively used, is appreciated and cared for.

Best Regards,
Richard Barrett
