Don't go paranoid on me Bob....
Please read my post carefully for comprehension this time and pay particular
attention to "had never sailed his latest vessel prior to purchase"
I believe you just confirmed my recollection of events.
This of course leads to the conclusion that any further recollections of
this subject, on my part, be held believable.....

When
