Did anyone see the opening sequence of this season's Survivor?

Yeah, hopefully they made enough money for a bottom job off the
Gig...they need it.
Did you see the growth on the bottom?

The schooner was so heavily laden it was hobby horsing so
badly I would not have been suprised if someone was pitched
overboard.

She has an overall length of 85 feet, a beam of 16 feet, draft 8.5,
and displaces 60 tons. I'm guess it is 65' on deck. It tops out
at 9 knots according to one article--that seems quite slow for a
vessel its LWL.
