Shrimp boat captains don't have gelcoat that needs "scratch avoidance".

I don't know what they have, but I favor tar covered steel. The
lubricating properties of the tar tend to protect those whom I
sideswipe from scratches.

I'm English from London. With a London accent.

Everyone, and I mean everyone in the USA thinks I'm Australian!

I've given up explaining that the accent Aussies have is a direct
descendent of London criminals!



.....and how much Cockney is in that accent?

100%

BTW, he tells me the story of an audio tape review they did from a transit
in an Upholder. Boring boring boring, listening listening listening to old
tapes from three weeks before. Until, quite distinctly and verified by
everyone who listened to it, they got a Typhoon passing a couple of hundred
yards behind them. Neither the Russians nor them had any idea they were
that close to each other. They were kicking themselves because they should
have picked up a Typhoon that close.

Good luck nobody got T-boned.

The Kriegsmarine lost a couple of subs to underwater collisions, one
during training in the Baltic, and one during a convoy battle. The
keel of a U-boat will slice open another sub as they go over the top.
One sinks, the other suffers only light damage.
