I have observed over many years that, were we to make generalisations,
power
boaters tend to identify themselves as more "conservative," whilst
sailors
tend to think of themselves as more "liberal."

I know what my observations have been but I wonder what others here
might
think.


since you asked, I am just the opposite. if there was a tree in the
middle of Buzzards Bay, I would zoom up to it in my stink pot, stop
long enough to hug it and then zoom on.
good luck with your querry

Bravo!
