If you are going to disparage the motor boat blokes it would seem a bit fictitious to do so while that outboard is strapped on the back of your boat..... -- Cheers, Bruce |

This represents about ten seconds-worth of the pollution a 13 gallon per hour diesel spews. Sails produce no pollution at all. You should try it some time, Bruce. Oh, BTW, Merry Christmas to you and yours. -- Sir Gregory |
