Greetings,
Mr. HC. EXCUSE ME!!! I
greatly resent your comments. How dare you insinuate that ANYONE who frequents this website, let alone myself, has even a modicum nay, a mere iota, a micro-nano if you will, amount of sanity.
Boating/trawlering is such an affliction of the mind and spirit that an accurate diagnosis of the cause of said illness has eluded the greatest medical/scientific experts for decades. Yay, verily, a goodly number of above mentioned experados, in fact, frequent these pages!
Although the cause is one of life's greatest mysteries, the prognosis, alas, is sadly fatal. Lifetimes will be spent talking and thinking about one's vessels, past present and future. Planning...purchase, repair, alteration, modification, changing...All for what? (He asked with a slight smile easily recognized by all fellow inmates of the assylum...)
And smart?
