Scotty, you need to read the original note more carefully.
What I said
was: "...those of us who can SAIL as well as motor at 15
knots to and
from a preferred sailing area, or to get around a squall,
can enjoy our
SAILboats even more."

But how about getting off this crap and instead responding
to the fact
that my boat does cruise under power at 15 knots, and that
this enables
me to get where I need to go at higher speeds when needed.

OK, Jim. As long as you're happy being a power boater,
that's fine with me.
I like to sail to where I'm going.

Scotty
