I don't know if GDM is going to leave this forum. He has made both forums interesting, funny and educational and posted some great pictures. His waterproofing of the SOV convinced me to waterproof my GT and I'm sure many others too. I don't know the reason he is leaving. Things change and people move on. His post were always short and to the point and usually with good pictures. Without his posts here and on the Beach forum this site is looking a lot less interesting.
And so have a bunch of others.
