hoary, your mind seems a little fluid sometimes. Are you or are you not saying
the Andrea Gail had a gasoline main engine, the plugs of which the drunken crew
cleaned the night before sailing as stated my the author of the book, "The
Perfect Storm"?

Wrong again, bongbrain. Never made any such claim. I never saw the AG
nor do I recall reading a list of what equipment it carried.

I did say it was possible the AG had a gasoline engine on board to power
some sort of aux. equipment, or as a backup power supply. It's not such
a great idea on a diesel-powered boat, but it is done. I've seen it.

With your crappy reading comprehension skills, you must have had a tough
time of it in school, eh?
