I do it all the time. Camera in one, the other hand on the wheel.

But Jim, all you've been talking about is the Mac's motoring
capabilities. I don't think I've seen a picture of you sailing your fine
vessel, nor have I seen much if anything about sailing her. Seems to me
Scotty is dead on accurate.


Actually, I have discussed sailing the Mac a number of times. But the
particular note from Scotty that I was responding to:


"If it's ''rather breezy weather'' THEN SAIL THE ****ING BOAT
YOU MORON !!!!!!!!!!"


related to my comments about the advantages under some conditions of
motoring back at high speeds (after a day's sail). Naturally, my response
related to the subject that seemed of interest to Scotty.

- As to pictures of me sailing the Mac, I haven't figured out how to
manage that, JG. Our sailing area in Galveston Bay is over a nm beyond the
inlet. (We have shallow and irregular bottoms closer to shore.) I'll find
someone someday who could take pictures someday. There are some
possibilities closer in, but they are shallow, and I don't want to risk
damaging my daggerboard. Meanwhile, my wife has adamently refused to take
pictures of the boat while sitting on a raft as I sail by. - Any
suggestions? But tell me, Capt., why would you want to see pictures of a
crappy boat like the Mac anyway?
