Technically, that's true, as anything longer than the instant you're in it is "going on a year" - and, as always in this very curious trip ashore, you've once again exaggerated our time on the hard - but I've done it 6 times in the last 3 years, and in the couple of years before that, have traveled an aggregate of several thousand miles in it, under sail. How many crossings have you made in that time? L8R Skip -- Morgan 461 #2 SV Flying Pig KI4MPC See our galleries at www.justpickone.org/skip/gallery !

Which is an exceedingly wholesome thought, and one that may effect a permanent change in your deportment that will be greatly appreciated by your friends."- James S. Pitkin |
