The two broadhead types are Voit 84-224( Left) the sliptip looks to be voit as well 84-247 (middle) JBL picked up the Voit design when they bought the company.
Sorry haven't replaced my scanner yet. The stainless is 304 and not heat treated.

That shot with you at the helm is amazing. I have only been in front of the rudder of a ply wood cat I named Caribou my dad and I built when I was 8 years old. My dad was a very accomplished sailor though.

That's a great looking power boat, I've only ever seen the world class sail boats they sell here in the states.

Cheers, Don

Nice Turkey, that dog looks just like my chicks.

I'm thankful for my freedom some of you have served this country to insure.
My great boy Dillon for winning every baseball game this season and making me proud.
Thankful for the wild GF keeping me up and dancing the night away.
Thankful for all the cool guys I have virtually met here.
But most of all to the Turkeys that came to my chick's back yard .;)

Cheers, Don

Always be yourself, express yourself, have faith in yourself, do not go out and look for a successfull personality and duplicate it.

Dayam you have some nice toys Don!! I love the slip tip design, I was thinking of using a mori tip with spectra and have dean thread the shaft but it would have been really expensive. I really like your sheath too, very covert. I'll have to start working on a better version of my sheath now that the bar has been raised so high!!

I was going to make a few for friends back in the mid 90's but than I got really hammered at that salty surf spot;) and thought F.... I don't want to get sued when someone sees a record and dies trying.
''A man has got to know his limitations''.

My first one was a Craftman Philps with a 3'' sliptip, the line looped thru the mid handle so one could hold it like a T. F+G in south Laguna would notice the screwdriver handle in the knife sheath and want to see it.
Never had a issue though, just led to more talk. When I get out of the water I don't want to talk at all, just get to Circle-K, get my can of Guinness and bag of bbq chips and head home and run the hot water tank cold.

Cheers, Don

Happy birthday Littlemark, thanks for the MMA hookups for me and da chick.
Have a great one dude.

Cheers, Don

Quote from Trace

Chris & Don, Both very nice. I'll have to make one myself.
Thanks for sharing.

Thanks Trace, I have been lucky to have a few nice flaties take me on a ride at night, it is a very primal experience. I spot them, then swim past and crawl up to them and plant the tip hard into the head. I wear a belt reel with 50' of tuna cord that I can clip to if I ever see one over 25#. The best local fish so far with this rig was 21# in 1997 at a OC spot that will remain open after Dec 1. It is such a treat to be just outside the shore brake on the way back in and spot one as your getting ready to slip off your fins. The stuff Vector Marine marine makes can give a guy more time with the GF or kids. Chris's T will land some flaties for sure.

Cheers, Don

That's a great looking piece Chris.
