Last time I passed your mooring I was sailing at 9 knots - your little
banana boat has never been over 6 knots!


Wrong bourbon breath! Before my old knot instrument bit the dust,
when I was surfing down the face of large Gulf Stream waves, the
knot meter would occasionally peg on 12 knots.

Good one Neal! You're always good for a laugh! Of course, I can do 12
knots in a flat sea, all I need is about 22 knots of wind.

Twenty-two knots of wind and a MacGregor 65, maybe, but with your cat
you would have to toss everything overboard including the engines and
props to get that thing light enough to even come close to that speed.
