[TheForge] temporary heat shield

[Chuck Robinson]

Hey Terry,
Unless you plan to register foreign flag and not tie up in US ports, you are 
probably in for a very rude awakening when the Coast Guard  does its 
certification inspection.
 Real teak panneling will give them severe heart burn, but a wood stove will 
give the inspector a heart attack.
I suspect that your vessels are going to have a hard enough time passing, 
with existing diffiencies you are not even aware of yet.
