Let me guess. You also think that a "ship" is a boat that is too big to
be
lifted onto another ship.
Bwhahahahahahahaha!

I noticed the bubbleheads didn't jump on the earlier remark about boats
being hoisted aboard ship.
Will this thread now degenerate into discussions of "Pig" boats,
"boomers",
etc?

Hi Doug, congrats on crew qual. I thought the thread has been a fun
diversion, and saw no need to allow it to "degenerate". My pleasure boating,
navy and coast guard experience need no embellishment, nor do yours of
course. I chose to ignore the "BinaryBill" poster above, that's all.
Best regards,
JP
