That's like the story of Louis Chevrolet being a designer for GM's
Buick Motor Division.

He broke away from Buick and started making his own, with a quote.

"Here I was, designing cars [Buick] that I myself couldn't afford."



Interesting......but there is a big difference between designing and
draughting. I just draw what they think will work, then draw it all
again when they find out the 'details' don't fit.

I'd never make a sailor anyway, I don't like the sea (or any deep
water). Even ferry crossings give me the jitters! Too many jaws movies
and reality footage of boats going down in cold water.......
