Spring, phooey! It's 80+ degrees (28C) outside!


In fairness to MacGregor, people who own the things do seem to enjoy
them. I sort of view them in the same way as those old cars that
looked a bit like the Studebaker that were capable of driving on land
or powering through the water. Oddly interesting but nothing that I
would want to own unless I just wanted an oddity. I suppose if I was
in a big hurry to get somewhere, I wouldn't own a sailboat. If I
wanted a powerboat, I would get a decent one and not stick a little
sail on top. Obviously I am not the target market, though.

True enough... sort of like Britney Spear's "music"


Wouldn't life be dull if we all liked the same thing

Depends... if everybody liked Bach and bicycles instead of
gawdawful-noise-music and SUVs, the world would be a better place. There
would still be plenty of room for diversity of opinions on boats,
hobbies, women, food, drink, religion, etc etc.

But I digress. You're right. Humans are not meant to live like ants.
