Yeah; a friend who's into boating (and owns a sailboat) said I could simulate the experience any time I wanted to by standing in a cold shower and tearing up $20 bills as fast as I could... Bob M.

My grandfather who owned a 24' ocean rated Searay (2 berth chemical toilet) compared it to tossing hundred dollar bills into a fire...one at a time. In his office he had a plaq that said "A boat is a hole in the water surrounded by wood, metal, plastic or concrete into which one pours money" If he hadn't died suddenly (massive coranary) he planned on putting in at the port of catusa, ok and sailing to key west. He had the skills to make it happen. |
