Excerpt from Donna's web site
 

"Oh, one more thing of interest. Earlier in the morning, before Donna
arrived, an Open 50 footer, racing around the world single-handed, was towed
in the harbor. Apperantly he had come through the same storm that Donna
came through. His boat is a mess, his sails are so tattered and tangled
around the rigging that he had to hire someone to go up the mast and cut the
sales (sic) away. Strangly enough, Donna's little Southern Cross came out
looking quite good, with everything intact but the self stearing."

Once again, small and simple makes it where big, sophisticated, and
expensive comes to grief.

Finally, something we can agree on:)

The pictures of her arrival are up and both she and the boat look pretty
good for what they've been through.

Geez, I wouldn't have admitted THAT on THIS newsgroup!
