Went to the boat this morning to find one of the aft lines popped in the night.
Winds gusted over 40 knots last night and were still to 30 when I got there at
10:30 am. But I knew this was coming and doubled up on the lines! No problemo.
Sure is a great day to do some sailing, so I'm going back in a few hours.

How can that be? You go down to your boat every day, your lines are "thimbled and shackled", and yet, in a mere 40 kts, a line "popped"! What are
using for line, the draw string from Suzy's maternity pants?
