RE: 76 inch Tug build
Alex,
You're moving along real well with the boat. The Starboard Kort nozzle looks well aligned and I see you're getting the bumper glued on. The control House looks terrific. As I'm looking at the pics (really like the big ones) I'm thinking to myself it must be interesting to work on a 6 foot model where you have to stand on your feet to accomplish most things.
The boats I build I sit at the workbence in the basement. 
Never get it out of the basement come to think of it, doors are only 30" wide, lol. Then theres the steps! The largest kit I have is the Dumas American Enterprise at 52" which is a future project.
How was fishing? Hope you had a blast and caught a lot of large fish.
