put your sails up and you can do 5kts all day for FREE!

You, obviously, haven't replaced/repaired sails, rigging, winches, the
tiniest little plastic thingy on the rig, cars, travelers, lines, sheets,
sail winding equipment or sailboat steering equipment......etc., etc., ad
nauseum.

Sailing is NEVER "free"! Just ask a sailor coming out of Waste Marine!

"About $5400 if you include the torn sails and broken rigging. But, we
only used 12 gallons of diesel fuel!"
