The Last Hull Plate

[Oswego John]

After over two years of blood, sweat and aggravation, the last steel plate is being fitted, cut to shape and welded in on the 85' schooner OMF Ontario. If some of you remember, it is hard to believe and understand that the steel plate was being attacked by microbiological forces.

Dang, those little buggers must have some sharp teeth.



Here is a shot of the Ontario in better days. We'll be back, again.

One of my favorite shots.

I fixed your HTML. You may not use the "table" tags and they have all been removed. Click on the "edit" button (above right) to see what I changed. Hopefully you'll remember what you pasted into your post so that you'll be able to make out what was removed.

OJ,

I'll bet that steel plate was adjacent to some DC wiring that was twisted backwards.
