N42RS

These photos show the Coot that I built from 1972 to 1983, starting in Fort Erie, Ontario, then in New York City, and finally in Madison, Wisconsin. The number "42" comes from The Hitch-hiker's Guide to the Galaxy, in which 42 answered "all the problems of the universe and everything". Such was (and is) my passion for the Coot!
