Well, as always, you'll just have to wait. Until next time - Stay Tuned!


I'm not sure if I admire your persistence in having to address these
breakages (often the same ones) over and over or question your sanity. I
found the joys of luxury not sufficiently wondrous to justify the
constant cost and bother of maintenance on a complex boat.

Mine wasn't even that bad. I spoke to a fellow having, IIRC, a 52'
Little Harbor sail boat. He said he always had at least three systems
out of commission or partly working at any given time. No human could
get all his boat working per design.

I have to question one thing. You say that the ablative bottom coating,
when brushed, exposes new 'copper'. I thought that illegal. If you could
use copper, I doubt you'd need the ablative aspect of the coating.

Anyway, if you must be in one place, Velcro Beach (as we called it
because we were reluctant to leave) is a darned nice place to be stuck in.
