Skip's Morgan 46 is more like a 3BR 2BA house than a barebones sloop
with a handheld GPS on a lap board. snip

It's one of the nicest-equipped sailboats I've ever been aboard.


I agree Flying Pig is beautiful, beautifully equipped (even beyond the
lovely mate/Admiral), and I love all the gadgets, but I'm not sure I
use as much power at home.

I'm more of a GPS with a laptop type of guy and the laptop's still optional.

Danged, I'd hate to maintain all those systems. (and all this ain't
news to Skip and Lydia.)
