What a fantastic use for fenders! One for Gin, one for Rum.

Well, I have two on each side so it could be Rum and Coke on the Port side and Gin and Tonic on the Starboard!!
Are you aware by the way that the gin and tonic was originally devised as a way to ward off malaria. Quinine is a natural deterrent to catching malaria but was so bitter the British troops in India did not want to take it. So the Brits developed the Cocktail Hour and mixed quinine in seltzer water and gin to make it more palatable. I can say with immense pride that no crew member of the Lusty Slogger has ever come down with malaria while sailing with this skipper

This is the cutest thing I have ever seen!

Would you consider sending it over to Duckworks with perhaps a building guide and where to obtain the plans?
I am a hopeless ambulance chaser for Chuck Leinweber and Duckworks, go to
www.duckworksmagazine.com or else send it to Mike John, my fantastic editor whom I love enough to go to Australia and visit soon I hope!
