The one I have on my boat is made of unbreakable lexan plastic, and is not from Bodum. I bought it at a camping equipment store. I just took the boat's Bodum from the galley and into the knapsack as we are going camping tomorrow...It makes delicious coffee, but remember to use a coarse grind. Add a bit of cinnamon...mmm! Mountain Equipment Co-op makes a hand-cranked coffee grinder that's ultra light for metrosexual camping...but it's the right weight for a J/30 G. R. |

Funny! My wife and I went for a nice sail today. I would like to have gone for a sail today, but I had to repair a rudder. :-( I'm so done with the thing soaking up water and then bursting through the skin in the winter, I'm thinking of having a copy of the damn thing milled out of aluminum. Our boat and our house are separated by a 40 minute drive through farms, colonial villages and forests. We enjoy the drive back and forth as part of the outing. Our back yard neighbor is a horse farm. As I turned into our road, I saw a kid riding a horse into the woods. He was TALKING ON A CELL PHONE! jeezus what _did_ we do without those fscking things before? rusty redcloud |
