I am still alive… Just.
April 26th, 2009
ok everybody (all 3 of us)……finally got around to this blog stuff,and will now update daily….news?
lots of news….great news is that I have just had my first results back from tha cancer treatment..and am in regression…..so I will be here for at least a few more years yet…….one of the greatest challenges I have had…..bring it on…Mr C is gettin his arse kicked….and I am back to towing/surfing /shaping…trying to work out the world financial problems..and am desperately still looking for the meaning of life!
mc glad to hear your still with us. throw us a bone and pray tell about the reverse vee and how and where to stick it on a gun 7’6 and up. how deep and would you apply funky bottoms to bigger boards?
ok eev design ..the whole idea was to get flat between the fins and vee under the front foot…this effect creates …curve on your rail line and a flatter rocker in the centre of the board….fins…back fin 4 1/2 “….side fins 12 1/4″….7/8″ off rail,pointed at the nose…hope this helps…thanx M
MC,

m, been a long time. just followed a link to here saying you’d been diagnosed with cancer. glad to hear there’s a light at the end of the tunnel for you with the regression. living in italy now for 9 years working in composites building yachts, raising a family and learning not to be an arsehole too often. sorry i let you down when i did, an hope your getting the best of your bout with mr c. regards rory
Maurice…just wanted to say that you are a true inspiration. I have been dealing with depression and many life transitions over the last few years. You are a true craftsman, athlete and artist. Good luck and keep fighting the good fight. Cheers mate!
great news on the regression – you’re an inspiration to the rest of us mate. committed to your passion and your life, its awesome!!
MC,
Glad to see that you are destroying that which sought to destroy you….no doubt that you will defeat this “hiccup”, as always…it goes without saying that you inspire us without even knowing it mate.
On the blower whenever you are up for a chat.
Peace Profound,
Terry
