Default Inherently beautiful.

Best move I ever made was installing Pro-furl. Nose into the wind, engine
as low as possible to keep her there. Leave the cockpit to raise the main,
return to the cockpit and steer in the direction you need to go. Main
fills, switch the engine off and all becomes quiet. Grab the furling line
and unfurl the headsail. No hanking, No farting around with the headsail
after the main is up. Easy to single-hand and let your sweetie do what she
does best - look pretty!

Heaven isn't as advertised unless it's got wide water, sailboats, and fresh
breezes.
