Wallet

The wallet part is also true. Its probably still somewhere in Pleasant Bay. The good news is I had lost in poker the night before, so at least most of money was with my poker friends and not the fish.

Did not remember

the name.....If I am down Wednesday I will make a note. The Pearson is doing good....thought the weather has pushed back completion. Should be fully glassed on both sides by Friday. I would love to be in by the 16th of June and think it is very possible.How is the boat and the search for a new one.....? Have you done much sailing??Greg

How did that happen?

No waves but they pitch-poled? I didn't think that was possible.

PitchPole

Franklin - Pitchpole, on a high powered cat, all it takes is wind! Catamarans will capsize all directions - I've never pitchpoled, but I am one of those special people who has gone over backwards. All it takes is wind under the trampoline.OldCat

I think that the conclusion that
