Occasionally I get to drive the icebreaker when we're actually breaking
ice since my guys & I have been sailing with the crew for so long that
they treat us as part of them. 4th Mate :-) Powerboating writ large,
conning a big ship down ice leads and doing bank shots off the sides to
go round a corner tighter than the ships turning radius. An experience
few people will ever have.

Sounds like a blast. Id love to take a 6,900 ton icebreaker and crush
every powerboat in this marina.

Amen. And the people who invented PWC should be cloned, tortured to
death in front of their clones, then the clones dealt with as well.
Fortunately PWC are rare here.

Ah well. Friday night sailing, Saturday sailing, Sunday building then
kayaking, Monday in the office but if the weather holds, sailing after
I get home. Hope you guys are enjoying winter, tho as I remember it in
AZ it was pretty nice, assume TX is OK too.
