You have a great attitude about the whole thing. If more people had your attitude, there's be a whole lot less litigation.

Attaboy!

Enjoy your weekend.

Thanks Matt, I figured out that the more you boat one of two things happen, either you become more forgiving and friendly or you become a big ass. Most of the people I've met choose the first. Have a good weekend !

Great attitude Alpha Tango! We all made made mistakes when we started. Some of us were lucky not to have such a grand stage when we f' ed up.

Actually, I believe that the young man works very hard cutting down trees and saved up 95K to buy his first boat. There was no Daddy (or loan) involved.

Yep, an apology from you is in order to the youngster!!

Sorry, I'm old. I believe that he is in his mid to late 20's.

Nice first boat!

I feel I'm always about to have an embarrassing moment around the docks. Doesn't take much wind to turn a 28 single into a slow speed sail!
