Yes Donal, in retrospect I could've alluded to higher speeds and made
repeated outrageous claims.... but that course is sailed by too many here
already.

Oh.. I'm certain! 12 knots at least.

Yes indeed.....

what, you couldn't afford to get one in degrees?

Thanks John..... it's a great place to sail around here. I've got the best
of both worlds to play in.... open ocean or deep bays and harbours with
Islands and lots of quiet anchorages. It's great to spend some time on the
ocean and sail back to a scenic harbour to have dinner at one of the many
seaside restaurants.

Good Photoshop job on the speedometer, too.

Well YEAH.... I took a wild guess with a chance of probability about as
remote as your boat achieving 8.5 knots up wind.

Even so.... it's nowhere near the speeds reported by Bob on that C&C 32
rocket cruiser. You wouldn't stand a chance against him in a race. Thank
gawd for you he doesn't race eh?

Meant to ask earlier, why is the water that strange colour and
not a healthy brown? isn't there enough sunlight?
