is a really cool boat... I sailed one a few years back in a 'sportboat
shootout' when most people were intimidated by the traps.

Maybe it's because of the negative association with 'walking the plank'?
Or maybe it's because planks are friggin' crazy!

I'd like to try sailing one; maybe it'll happen. I've got a few friends
with Int'l Canoes although they aren't in the same league
(horsepower-wise) as the Skates. Last time I sailed a 470 I found that
the knees and the reflexes aren't what they used to be
