Joe,

Some up dates; Lady B & Mike Fulmor got married,

Congrats to them!

Neal goes by the name of Simple Simone,

That was simple to figure out.

Can't be sure what Bobsprit is calling himself; What ever keeps him one
step ahead of the "net Nazis!

No comment.

Michael; Schoonertrash went back to Sea on US Military transport. He is
buying a new boat, after his twin keeler almost sunk sailing to Calif.
(Keel Bolt leaks) He and Lady B were a hot and heavy item until he went
back to sea and Fulmor moved in;

Yeah, going to sea and leaving your best friend behind is a mistake.

Drove Neal crazy! especially after he found out she married a
different Mike!

I bet that had him bouncing of the bulkheads.

Bobsprit brought a derilect C&C and is busting his ass trying to
convince (Not sure who) that it is the greatest thing since sliced bread.

Must be the boat with rotten mast wedges.

I just brought a new North Main and after sailing for years and years
with a shelved main it came "Free Footed" my fault. I didn't specify.
Wasn't I'd be satisfied but I've fallen in love with it. Caused a very
long discussion with the group of the pro's and con's of free footed and
shelf

Both my main and mizzen are loose footed, I love em and they always
have preformed most excellent. Quantum Sails in Seabrook Texas made
them.

I also put a new bottom on "Pnuema" and just about lost a summer of
sailing.

Simple (Neal) just ordered new sails from Hong Kong. They are applying
the Coronado Emblem ( Good thing there's on i in it. It would probably
Slant Eyed)

I hope he went with a loose footed sail as well. They preform better
than a footed sail, and a bent boom will not effect them much until it
really bends.

That is about all I can think of Joe. Good to see you back AND the
mermaid,

Sorry Mermaid is not back. She knows where this place is, but I think
she is more content to sail friendly waters with real sailors if given
the choice.

HAPPY 77th Birthday! Double 7s have to be a lucky year!

Cheers to you!
