Default Toe Rail

Furthermore, the proof you offered, a single article written by a rehabber,
doesn't make HIS spelling of Toe Rail correct in the face of thousands of
dissenting opinions in the dictionary world...

:{))

That said, it's a nice article...

"Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you
didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail
away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore.
Dream. Discover." - Mark Twain

Hey Willy-boy, try the website http://www.hazegray.org/faq/slang2.htm
entitled "Naval Terminology, Jargon and Slang FAQ
Part 2 - N through Z"

In naval terminology it is "Toe Rail", regardless of what you week-end
dilettantes may call it.

Cheers,

Bruce
