    wow being watching for over five years congratulations on all your massive amounts of hard work you have built a extremely high standard vessel to suit your requirements hope you can enjoy it for many years to come. I started a deck mould for a 6mtr boat 3 years ago nearly completed it then got crook for 2 years but over that now and had the pleasure of popping the new deck out the other day well worth all the work did extra modifications because Ross got into my head and made me do the best version of a deck i could, thanks look after yourselves and enjoy that wonderful boat

    MADE MY DAY hearing that !! - Especially after the concern of no news last week. Brilliant - so delighted for you both - it feels like starting the last chapter of a great book - eager to find out what happens mixed with the sorrow of knowing there’s an end in sight. I hope you celebrated the moment with stories to tell for years to come.

    Hi Ross I’m glad Jen has big shoulders , you’re always given a curry which is normal for Australians anyway it’s good to see you. You still love each other after all these years and building a boat must put a strain on a relationship at times. Anyway keep up the good work Cliff from Logan city appear in the real world, Queensland, Australia. I just got back from Sydney yesterday absolute madness you go in the 40 km an hour zone and people are still doing 100 k’s an hour drive past feel like you’re standing still don’t know how they keep their license , I must say those rivers down there like the Hawkesbury River, absolutely beautiful what a place to live

    Can you not re tap to next size up and put the thread size you need same holds for the male threads just clean old threads off and run the proper die as long as there is enough meat and the pressure are not too extreme. May be even get a welder to weld up the nipple or male thread and then use the proper die. That will also keep the threads std and the same . Nothing worse than having to work on things with 2 or 3 different thread types. Probably cheaper than using multiple fittings and having to source them . I worked on process analyzers and their sample systems for 15 years but almost always used compression fittings and the prices did not matter too much.

Rossco, there is a Swedish couple building a wooden 50', monohaul and at the same time having to completely renovate their farm home and the barn being used to build their vessel in and a garden and playset for their daughter and and.... It is going on 2 years for them now! Another Swedish family is building an aluminum catamaran. In under three months of construction, the entire skeleton and shell of their vessel is done!
