Once again the power of OSO triumphs for good...
In less than 2 hours peace has been brought to Yachtforums.com
The thread is gone, and I assume the little peckerhead has been banned.

Time for lunch, then on to the next world crisis.
Thanks for the diversion Dave

160 with one person driving and working the sticks. Pretty impressive if you ask me. The truth is, that boat was capable of well more than that. The group involved with the boat accomplished what they set out to do.
