you just reminded me of a childhood event. When I was 15, two of my friends
and I carried a Snark sailboat 5 miles to a Lake. The walk wasn't the hard
part, it was our forearms that ached from holding the boat. We rigged it,
set it in the water, got in, and the wind immediately bent the aluminum mast
in half. Bummer.

Ah, good old Thor...he died a while back....I read all his books when I
was
a kid and he inspired us to make the telephone pole sailing barge that
took
3 days to sink....
