    28 Marlin

    Glen, thats a great idea Dennis has.... if your wife and neighbors don't mind. frame in the boat, shrink it, and there it is close to home To be able to access your garage and tools easily. That will save so much time. The cost of framing in and not to mention the storage costs from the...
