What is that starboard side rail made of - wood?
K1w1 Hit some rocks on the Connecticut side about 10 years ago pretty badly. Everything was mic'ed, machined and balanced afterward. No...

Dsharp thanks, Supposedly I am not "riding" the key. The tech/mechanics have done all of the above. I think the best suggestion so far is to...
So I am neither insane nor stupid. Those kinds of posts go into my JUNK mail and reflect negatively on the poster - drinking? Anyway, I've done...
