I was also expecting the Bull to be #2 and the Great White to be #1. |

You definately don't want to go over the side
in the ocean. Tossing garbage overboard and pumping out your holding tank might actually attract sharks to your boat, and if they are hungry, to follow your boat for many miles. Fun eh?

I really wasn't planning on going overboard any time soon....and we probably
won't do much more than coastal cruise anyway since we're not set up for offshore sailing at all...we'd have to either get a macerator pump or get the y-valve replaced and we don't have a radar...there's nothing wrong with coastal cruising...especially when you have wide open spaces like Pamlico and Abermerle Sounds to explore....

Last I was in BVI, we had a 3 foot barracuda underneath the catamaran for
several hours. It seemed to like the shade, so at one point I opened up the emergency hatch in the head and reached out and tried to grab the tail. He sure didn't like that at all, but didn't get me. Still it stuck around for hours. http://www.sailnow.com/gifs/barracuda_small.jpg -- "j" ganz @@ www.sailnow.com "Bart Senior" .@. wrote in message ...
