I got the impression it wasn't a specific day of the week but was usually
Sunday. A lot of old-time naval officers thought that religious services
should be held on Sunday evening, not morning, so as not to spoil the rest
of the day for work.

Hey John did you see that big Frers 'Surfrider' is for sale? "Price
available on request" I bet it's a lot!

The name's familiar, but I know it's not a Grosse Ile boat and I don't think
it's from North Cape. Gotta link to the ad?
