That's for sure! (See above ^^^ )

Been there, did that, not something I'd want to repeat!
Did everything come out ok? I was lucky, only tweaked the stem
plate and had it welded. It could have been worse, I sure.
JW> then the one there. Lots of wind and it seems that I still would rather

Saskatoon Reservoir???
JW> because for some reason the water is warmer in the summer.
Funny thing about that! :)
JW> I have only one question for you what Yacht club or some thing
JW> like that do you belong to?
Not a member yet (But my daughter's a junior member) of the
Sequim Bay Yacht Club.
JW> Power gives way to Sail. (think about that)
No need to! I've seen the politics between the power and sailing
fleets. The racng sailors tend to be the most active in getting
eventsgoing, including the cruising. Of course, the cruises
turn into unofficial races!
Right now, we're trying to arrange sponsors to help enlarge the
local dinghy fleet and get new sailors trained. It would be nice
if something similar could be started with power boating and
even row boating, but the sail racers have the drive to have
gotten there program into the breeze, so to say!
Stay dry, and sail fast, my friend...
