Good for you. I'm jealous but feel obligated to post to this thread.
It is actually about sailing.

Huh? I use sailing gloves all the time...I have a pair of elastic-y
neoprene gloves and a pair of canvas...I like the feel of the
neoprene better, but the canvas work better...lines won't slide on
the canvas where they will on the neoprene...

Neat pictures...the cityscapes are incredible. At night it must
look like a fairy land with all the lit up building on the sides of
the hills. I have never been to San Francisco...only as far north
as the sordid L.A. but I can see that it would be an excellent place
to sail (even though you do have a tremendous amount of sharks in
the Bay...).

Ever get a glove finger tip caught in a bind? I almost had my hand
sucked into a tugger that pinched the finger tip between two strands on
the spool. The glove squeezed like one of those chinese finger cuffs, I
just barely got my hand out in time.

I don't like gloves, jewelery, long hair, anything that can get caught
on running rigging.

Well, duh, Joe. Haven't you ever seen sailing gloves? Mine don't
have fingertips...the tips are exposed...the gloves come up over the
first joint and fit right...if they're lose, they're no good.
Peruse your West Marine catalog...they're in there...
