Real Sailors Only need Apply!!!
I saw someone motor into a rock (the marina sill, in fact) at 3 kts once.
There was nothing "gentle" about it. Seen it, too. A friend with a C&C 35 Mark whatever (race boat...won the Queen's Cup and Admiral's Cup) went cruising and hit a rock "gently" in the North Channel...C&C "smile" quickly ensued. Also, big C&C that used to be at our former marina named "Hedon" hit the reefs off the BVI, came home wearing a C&C "smile". Methinks would be a good thing to take a little snorkle trip under the boat and see if it's grinning. -- katysails s/v Chanteuse Kirie Elite 32 http://katysails.tripod.com "Women and cats will do as they please, and men and dogs should relax and get used to the idea." - Robert A.
