It's been suggested by a few idiots that a TV had now place on a modern crusing
boat. Now I'm no long range cruiser, but facts are facts!

Space: Have you guys ever heard of "flat screen TV?" Uses little power and
takes up even less space.
Safety: A properly mounted TV won't fly around in bad weather or a knockdown.
Power: Many long distance cruisers now carry nice laptops in addition to the
standard charts. These laptops can treat the cruiser to a movie now and again
with almost no power penalty.
The fact is that TV has become a no-brainer for easy entertainment on many a
cruising boat, espcially in recent years with flat panel displays. Anyone who
says otherwise is living in the past and hasn't read websites showing today's
cruisers and what they carry. Books, music? Of course! But a TV can be a great
treat for those aboard and doesn't need to stay home anymore.

Wake up and smell the 80's, kids. They've ended...long ago!

Bwahahahahaha!
