Sorry, Bart. I think your Dutch friend was yanking your chain!

But here's a question: I've heard the term "knockabout" as a type of small boat
but never saw a formal definition. This morning I was reading a 1943 edition of
Chapman's - how do you think Charles defined them back then?

I agree I could have posed the question better.

However, if you don't like my questions, a smart guy like
you Jeff, is free to post some better ones!

Bring them on!
