Depends on where you are whether it's legal or not...it's illegal in the
Great Lakes but people do it anyway...my Ucle Jimmy was sprinkled halfway
between the shore and Catalina...off a charter boat...
I don't know if my Grandma and Aunt told the captain that's what they were
renting the boat for...

I need some help. A very good friend of mine just died. He and his
wife loved to sail with us. She called and told me she would like to
have Steve's ashes thrown overboard into the sound. Since the boat is
not very big (25') we plan on having the bulk of the memorial party on
shore at our house. What is the "proper" way to set the boat up..ie
flags, bunting,etc. He died in Mexico so it will be a few days before
his ashes return here. Any suggestion will be appreciated.
