The Three Amigos have moved.
1. Blue Northern (Rob)

2. sraab923 (Scott) Scott has 2 Project Albums going.
http://www.whalercentral.com/userphot...ser_id=838
3. ritzyrags (Serge) Has one album and NO descriptions for 90% of his photos.

All photos need a description otherwise no one will know what a person is really doing or trying to explain what they are doing in the photo.

So far;
I have been adding comments but have seen them not permanently added to the photos.
Back to square one every time.

Are you using invisible ink?
Seems to work for the other members with Photo and Project Albums.
Are you clicking on the "Save" button.... ???

Well that reply has brought the first smile of the day here..
OK;
Let's see
I have gone to the first photo showing the stenciled number..
in the Current Photos section.
And pressed Edit;
This was the factory stencil number that got me to chat with Chuck Bennet for info about identifying the hull number AND the only one ownership;
Prior to my adoption of My Girl.
This is the comment that has been added, still remains posted there but has so far not showed with the photo.
It is all possible that I took a wrong turn somewhere.

That description shows up under the photo.
When I transferred some of your photos over, I also transferred over the descriptions that were there.
There were about 6 photos that I transferred over along with the descriptions.
The rest of the photos you uploaded do NOT have any descriptions.
All you need to do is click under the photo on the "Edit" button.
Add your description...
And then click on the "Save Photo" button.
Even though the photo is already there, you need to save the description which used the same button "Save Photo".....
Your description will then be saved along with the photo....

Thanks Joe,
I have done the "save photo" last step.
And did it one more time.
Hopefully the text will show up soon.

This is one of many that do not have a description yet.
Try it on this one.
"Scotts Cable Tunnel"
Right now the description reads: "Waiting for description from author"...

Yes;
I have clicked on the url and got to the photo AND comment posted.
I think that the problem will lie in the fact that when I go to the right under my Avatar and click on My Project Albums;
I will go to my album front page then to the next option showing all photos from the first page;
But to see all photos with titles but no writing beneath;
And this even though I will have tried to add photo after the few words of explanation have been entered.

Finally....
That wasn't so hard... Was it?
Now you only have about 30 more photos to add the description to.

Yes,
Not that hard really;
I think that while my first coat of primer is drying that I had time to find out why this would not seem to work at first..
You see;
When I did go to my Avatar on the right and clicked on My Project Album;
The next window would take me to my project page..
I would then click on photo one for example and nothing would happen;
Unless I would click on Edit.
The usual box with my actual comments would then appear.
To be updated if desired.
But would not see the added text after save photo click option.
The only way that I have been able to see the comments with the photos was to go to Photo Gallery on the left,
Members Project Albums option and only then be able to view photo and text by clicking on them.
Took a bit of roaming to find it.
Should it not work like this on my Project Album listed on the right???

It has been a slice once again;
As I have again put in a full day here at my private rec facility.
A second and third coat of primer was sprayed on today.
The imperfections were spotted and filled with glazed putty prior to the second coat.
The customary sanding was also performed while the water bombers were circling the skies in preparation for landing and refueling.
Plenty of fires in our areas here lately.
I have posted a few photos to my Project album for showing of the natural progress of this refit.

I went back and added "Descriptions" to my P.P., I'm not exactly computer savy, and I'm "LOST" in the new world of Electronics, "High Def" TV and "Blue ray". Does anyone know where they still fix 8-track players ? I feel like my Father !

It was a most rewarding of days.
The first coat of gel was carefully applied Sunday and took it's sweet time to totally dry.
The fact that we have gone into the seventies instead of the one hundred plus degree Fahrenheit of last week must have a lot to do with it.
After having vacuumed all the decking, inspected and surveyed every inches of the surfaces;
A rewarding second coat was lovingly applied today.
Latex gloves,coveralls and respirator were constantly worn during all mixing and spraying sessions.
I was extremely pleased with the covering and capacity of the Isothalic Polyester gel chosen for this resurfacing.
The weather is showing a succession of cloud cover and sun in an ever ending pattern.
A bit of a sprinkle was even thrown in to complicate things..
I am very pleased with this second coat.

There is nothing like the sound of the surf;
As the only reply.
Calm and soothing after another good day of work.
The usual removal of all dust and foreign matter was performed today as a ritual and to get the "fix" on things.
After having inspected the covering of the second coat,It was found that numerous pin holes were still very apparent and just flying in the face of all the accomplished work done so far..
My favorite 3M glazing putty came to the scene and did what it does best.
After drying and sanding the detailing works;
It was found that three hours had already gone by.
The weather and temperature being perfect for it;
I did spray a third and very attentive coat today;
And I am not totally displeased with the results that are starting to show.
I did take the precaution of taping my stenciled number and BW affixed MODEL decal.
My project page will be showing visuals.

Keep up the strong work Serge. I visited my project today after its initial gelcoat application. It was weird because the boat had a flat sheen to it. Takes a bit of buffing to bring out the nice shine.

It is good to see that you are still having fun Scott.
I wonder if Rob has been working on his low pro lately...
A bit tired after having put in six continuous hours working on her today.
The fourth coat in on and I have used two gallons of material so far..
It is just as shiny as the third coat and will not be posting a photo.
There is no reason to.
I will be looking forward to seeing pictures of your girl with gel on her.
Keep up the good work.

Hey John;
Yes, the mystery of the Starboard bow deck section drain...
This one had me going a bit nervous..
Until to the fact that I did figure the setup scheme.
The drain had been installed to join the section of the structure to an adjoining"outlet" located into the cable tunnel trench located under the console.
Scott was gracious enough to have removed his console;
Having the same model as I;
And to verify that his set up was different then mine.
Both orifices were connected by an under structured tunnel.
Both of these holes were properly filled and resurfaced.
The exact location of this pesky drain was all the way up on deck forward a bow on the Starboard side.
And just before the step up to the locker.

I have an Outrage and wanted to put a washdown system on-board. the logical place was in the forward bow locker and after talking to someone on WC i found out that the washdown was an option on my Whaler and that the wiring was already there for it. i pulled a plug off of a hold inside the bow locker and found nothing but foam. after probing i found the wires inside the foam. could you have the same thing, and be thinking that it is a drain? just a thougt. if you want to see mine, i think that i have a pix on my personal page.
you get the FedEx package yet?
