I don't know what to say about this one.
 
I do: "Journalists who know nothing about boats should be prohibited from
writing about them." Since when is a seacock a "device which pumps water to
the engine"? John Coles of The Sun just lost his boat story privileges.

Damn, I would have bought that sight unseen for 40,000 pounds. Now

It's a $600,000 vessel at current exchange rates. I'd pay L40,000 just
for the winches.

The couple in question are friends of friends, I`ll try to find out more,
will probably give him a call this evening.
