I believe Prince wrote "Purple Rain " while cruising on his Bayliner.

When I was at Cougar, we built a 40' cat with 15 steps, flames on the engine box, lighning bolts on the deck, Kisscote, Rainx, Slick 50, riblets, a beak and a wing. We launched the boat, and it took off without starting the engines, and hasn't been seen since..........

While we're on the subject, does anybody know the points of delineation between, mist, drizzle, rain, and downpour?

These are key parts of this complete and utter waste of time..........and I'm proud of that.

Mist- water suspended in the air. Not falling.
Drizzle- fine water droplets falling.
Rain- falling water droplets of at least 1/50 in.
Downpour- rain, but more of it.
More importantly though, is the deck waxed or not?
