so what good is your boat to you, except as a resale
item, if you
become an amputee?

Ignorant girl. Tell that to Tristan Jones who wrote some
good sailing
books including "Outward Leg". He was an amputee.

I'll bet he would have traded his boat for a good leg,
anyday.

And *that* was Katy's point,

Nope. You're wrong. Her point was just like she said. Get your leg
amputated between boat and dock and then you've gotta sell your boat.
It's no good to you anymore except for resale. How can you possibly get
what you said out of what she said? She seems to think amputees can't be
sailors. It ain't nice dissing the handicapped. Acting like a one-legged
man's got nothing going for him. Needs to be sitting in a wheel chair or
the like. She's ignorant. And you're just like her. So why don't you
mind your own beeswax.
