Funneling is a bad problem here, at a cat 5 storm they figure 12' flood
here in the marina, Its been 6' foot over the dock before puttin my
penisula completly under water. But we do have the bldgs and 20 ft
pylons around the boat.

The P-40 is gone, the picture is a couple years old. Sandy and Cheri
are still crusing with no plans to stop anytime soon. The P-40 was a
fine boat, we had many fine nights on Galveston Bay and the gulf on
her. She's fast but would not be my pick of a world cruiser due to the
lack of interior space. One the the best features is a nice clean and
clear deck. And Sandy's famous Martini's.

http://www.oceanicventures.com/news/billings.htm is the link to Sandy
and Cheri's cruising updates but the URL seems to be having problems
lately. They are in Guatamala..Cheri's is helping out at a local
medical clinic and Sandy is scouting out all the local fine foods!
