InTN. Guy's dad owned a crane company. Thought his new O'Day 25 would be a fun place for the bar at his Christmas party.

Now, get the goddamn fender properly stowed !
If there's one thing that drives me nuts, it's vessels under way with their fenders flopping about.

I once had Sapporos and dried blowfish on the bridge of a Nissan PCTC.

With all our science, technology and weapons of war an mass destruction, we still come off as insignificant at times. Like when hanging on for dear life and praying for the end of a storm at sea.
Not sure if it's the perspective but that sea looks HUGE!
Do ships have seatbelts?

Sonofabitch. That is one helluva nice looking vessel. She's beautiful.
That's a rigger's nightmare. How, in god's name, did they negotiate that turn?

Ta.
Probably just a hair out of my price range. She really is gorgeous.
It is nearly impossible for me to think of her as a sailboat. I don't imagine that her motion and feel compares with anything I've ever been aboard.
