Good List.... just wait till Ozzy gets back.... he'll whoop you into
shape
while wearing his gold braided Greek Fisherman's Cap!
Ozzy would have produced a detailed list that would put everyone here to
shame considering his Global Trotting history and vast fortunes. ;-)

Nah, I wouldn't wanna brag.....it upsets Donal.

Please ..... please do NOT think that your bragging upsets me!

Nothing could be further from the truth!

I think that your bragging is almost as good as Bobsprit's.

When Wally has some experience, I suspect that he may be a challenge!

We had a white sail race today - I swear the stanchions were nearly
horizontal during a gust (we were a tad over-canvassed). I was sitting on
the rail watching the cockpit crew standing on the leeward coaming, waving
their hands in the air trying to grab the windward side.

Damned *excellent* fun!

But you weren't really sailing. You were powerboating by
your own admission. That's not what he asked. Now tell
us where you've gone on a SAILBOAT.

OK that splain it to ya? I was at the helm on every trip I listed.

No, he was on my boat, and we sailed north under a
full and drawing 1/4 oz spinnaker. That is, until
a front approached and brought rain and 20k wind
from the northwest.
