Fantastic video Bob!!!!!
Who wrote and performed that song? The lyrics were so good that I almost started writing them down to put into a post. But I figured I'd ask first before spending an hour or two transcribing them. Please post if you have them available. Thanks!!!

Hey Bob G.,
I still have one of your early winch/reel units sitting in my garage that still has 3,600' of 3/16" poly-pro rope on it.
Since I sold my boat decades ago after moving from Minnesota to the desert in New Mexico it has been waiting for me there.
I've had it in trucks, trailers, and in my boat and it has sent up thousands of flights. Many happy pilots have you to thank for having built it.
I bought it from Gerry Uchytil (I had to look up that spelling - sounds like - U' KA TELL) I think Gerry was the original purchaser. He still lives in Wisconsin.
Thanks Bob G.
