And you are! You are supposed to wipe from the leeward side, just out of courtesy.

Oooh, now THAT's a good one.

I'm in the garage digging out some 1.5" PVC right now to put my "sail" on.

Blowboaters I love to sail but I can't relate to some of the granola tree hugger blowboater brethren.

Oh, and it was nice to see you again Mark!! I love Leland. Should have seen the guys getting off the ferry from the islands later that day... all wet, all sick. Just happens that my friend Bill was on the boat... he's a boater... he got sick. EVERYONE got sick. Yuck!!
