It's one of the first things I have students find when the climb aboard
the keel boat... is the road attached to the boat. It isn't because I untie
it before they get there. It's a nice object lesson.

Presumably, the other end is already attached to the boat.

out...and out...and out....and away......It was funny because it was not on
my boat.....
