Our skipper is moving on. When he was in flight school he had an in flight emergency in a Navy T-45 and had to eject. We got our hands on some T-45 tail hook points and I built these bookends.

The aircraft I work on used to have a sextant installed on it. It has been modded out and they are VERY hard to come by. Our commodore (Navy Captain) is retiring and I built him this stand, the sextant comes with it

When my dad passed, I wanted to have a shadow box made for his hat, ship coin, and the 3 spent shell casings. This hat box would be a much better way to honor him!!! Thanks for the idea Hubbard.

May you always have fair winds and following seas, sir.
