Frank,

Has it ever crossed your mind that you may be thr "Johna" It was after
I invited you up to Bellingham that I lost the thrust bearing on
"Pnuema's" shaft.

Hi, Ol Thom,

Don't think I haven't thought that! We evacuated to Houston for
Katrina. So what happened then? Rita took aim for that area. By that
time, however, we were back in New Orleans. Then, after we sailed to
Florida and were down at the Dry Tortugas, freaking Wilma took a U-turn
from her original Westward heading and took aim for Florida. Ack!

And aside from you and your thrust bearing, I was gonna crew for
someone with a Freedom 38 in a local race series this past Summer; but
her entire electrical system fried just before the series started!

Eek!

Frank (aka Jonah)

That's sad. So very sad. Imagine that. It's got to the point where people can't sail
if they don't have electricity. And worse yet they use it as an excuse like they're proud
of themselves. That's *really* sad.
Funny but "Elle Niño" sails just fine without electricity. You people around here have
got more excuses than Carter's got pills. Mercy! I think your happier hanging around a
garage talking about electricity, motors, oil, propellers and everything else but boats
that use sails to move.... Get real why don'tcha?

Cheers,
Ellen

Your philosophical bent sounds simular to a gentleman that use to
post to this news group about his vessel "Cut the Mustard".
