Why? Are you telling us you couldn't find your way safely into Bermuda
at night? (you don't mention the weather conditions and I know that YOU
were NOT the person making the decision to lay off)

how about you, over-the-knee? what were you doing? sailing a rubber ducky?

Last Friday....hmmmmm nope, I was sailing a 650' car carrier out a 290'
wide channel, from a standing start, in 30k of wind which was on my stbd
beam, at night .... ever try that?
Doodles, you are at the low end of "seasonal weekend warrior" BR
