A fellow just pulled into the adjacent finger just now got back from 21 years of cruising with his wife. I think he said he's 71. But this is a bit of a ghetto dock, I suspect Larry is in a Swank Country Club type marina... right Larry? tom =-== |

He's not in a marina - he just goes to lots of them, and gets free rides in exchange for electronics know-how. Not a bad deal, at all, and keeps his ownership and membership costs to nothing :{)) L8R Skip, still working... |
