There is one boat that has a curious choice of rigging. The twin
E-tecs are "****ing" on each other. I will try to get a picture. It is
a classic. The only thing that would be better is if one was a Yammy.


Because the "****er" on the larger E-TEC can be aimed wherever you like,
some folks with twin engines direct the streams outwards on each side to
"****" on others as they go by. The younger ones aim both "****ers" up and
aft so they have their own roostertail as they go down the river.


Hmmm - on purpose?

When I had my Contender, my indicators were aimed outboard, but into
the water - just so I could see them.

Aiming them up in the air doesn't make any sense at all.


It's kind a like a Jolly Roger flag. You do it to be cool, not show how
much sense you've got!
