Already own a sewing machine...


why am I not surprised by this.


Why don't you own one? Can't afford it? I've already repaired my sail cover
and dodger. Saved me a couple grand.

Scotty uses duct tape for all of his sewing needs.

My old Genny has a lot of sail repair tape on her.

How was DC? It was cold and rainy in Hingham, I didn't
stick around long.

Spring time! Cherry Blossom Festival, temps up to the 80's. We came
home to a snow storm!

I stayed with a rich cousin. He gave me a ride in his Ferrari 360
Spider - awesome car but essentially useless. He's in the process of
buying a Doral Alegria, so he had a lot of questions like "do you
really need 3:1 scope when you anchor?", and "is insurance required?"
and "will I use the autopilot?" and "what do you think of paying extra
for A/C in the cockpit?"

If you run into him (or vice versa) tell him I said "hi!"

Oh, a power boat, no wonder I didn't recognize the name.
Just what we need on the Chessy, another clueless power
boater.

It snowed here today.

Better there than here! But it would be fun to take it out once. Bay
Bridge to Norfolk in about 4 hours. It would only use about $600 of fuel.

It snowed here today.


We had under an inch, but up north they had up to a foot.

No problem. Just buy some carbon credits from Al Gore's company and you're
all set.
