Did you see the last response to the article on the page? Said "They must have had a whale of a time." Ha!

Really. As soon as I regained my senses.

It is also a reminder to those with chain rodes that there should be a lashing in the locker, although I'm thinking bolt cutters might be faster (might have to run out a lot of chain).

I wonder when the last time was that a cruiser had a Nantucket sleighride.

This could become a new race strategy, like hooking up a team of clydesdales to your boat.

All the cool whales are doing it.
