I guess I'm spoiled. 2 minute motor out of the marina,
and
I'm sailing!

I'm so sorry. Such a long motor is the price some have to pay for being so
far from open water.

Since we've moved to the leeward side of the dock, on low-traffic days we
shove the boat manually out of the slip, sails raised, and sail out of the
marina. Sail back into the slip, too. Let the powerboaters brag all they
want about how 'green' they are using biodiesel.

I'm trying to remember if I bragged about using biodiesel.

You can't brag about it if you don't use it.

Around here the main customers for biodiesel are commercial vessels. They
smell like someone is making popcorn when they motor by. Most of the
recreational powerboaters burn petroleum diesel, primarily because it's
readily available, and many are leery of using biodiesel for some unknown
reason. Those who do, however, brag about being 'green.' To a sailor
that's like Richard Simmons boasting to Vin Diesel about being manly.
