Fellas he is not asking for more than cost but he certainly deserves more. DO NOT ABUSE HIS GENEROSITY! Be the gentlemen of the OB we all strive to be please and include some lagniappe.

Thank BP. If they want to fine, but not expected.

Been laying in the hospital bed from 7am and I went back and read from page one.

If God is willing, come this fall, I will put on another build.

I agree with this completely...fish has been unbelieveably generous in sharing all of his knowledge and asking nothing in return all while working through some tough times of his own...

when I suggested that he sell pirogue "kits", I certainly did not mean that he provide them at his cost...

depending on your means, I would suggest sending him no less than 50 or a 100 dollars for all of his generousity...

Fish is top of the class of good people. He has taught great boat building lessons but even better what kind of person to be life lessons. For all he went thru in his condition building that pirogue for Josey's auction last Dec. , never having met him irl, Josey offered to send half of what it sold for back to Fish for his costs and time. Fish said thanks but he wanted nothing for helping . So Josey directed that 1/2 of pirogue proceeds go to mom of young girl from Dutchtown battling cancer at St. Jude from Fishfighter and El Josey Wales. He came up 9 days short of knowing 1/2 of Smack's new $2400 pirogue went to help that little girl and her mom.
