Some = 17%


17% of what? 90 degrees?

Nah, degrees come in bunches of 360:-)

I didn't have the heart to break it him. You had no problem however.

That's some heel!


He appears to be an expert! I'm just awaiting his installation of running
lights before I take him seriously in the least.

Enough for the deck-top fenders to roll overboard...

Real boats have toe-rails, wally! Tends to keep stuff on deck.
Real boats also tend to have lights.

Toe-rails? What exactly do you think they keep on deck?? Fenders?
You're not right even if the boat is in the slip.

Cripes! Bob thinks that a toe-rail would stop a fender rolling overboard.

Hey Nutsy,

Of course they do. The aluminum rails catch fenders, dropped tools and even my
cell phone! Heel really far and a fender could roll off, but then you can just
put it front of a stanchion. Anything so long as I don't have to stow them!
