I didn't see a place to say hello but, I figured I'd pop in. I've been back to this page soo many times over the years. I found it back around 2001 I believe when I was looking for information to work on the 13' Supersport from my childhood. (which is in my new second phase of reworking) I'm in a closer position to look at a larger off shore boat now and have found a love of tuna fishing 60-70 miles off the Washington State coast. Anyways, always dreaming and dreams coming closer to reality in the coming years. Still love the BW's.
I just wanted to say Hi and thanks for keeping up this page all these years. I don't remember what my old handle was years ago. Friends call me "Happy". It's Paul aka Happy Gilmore. Good to see you all.

Re: Hello been a while
Found an old topic. My old handle was Duckin Whaler. Is Sal still around? And, I still have my old 13'.
Re: Hello been a while
Hi Paul--I believe Sal M passed away. The forum has been going since 2001, and, sadly, in those 17 years we have lost several prominent contributors.

Re: Hello been a while
I searched around a little and found his obituary from 2011. I shared some off line conversations with him which I really enjoyed and remember to this day. Having read that I'm curious if some of the commercial fisherman I know who are now retired were familiar with Sal. One now has his winter home near where Sal made his home in Ca.
