One thing I've been doing is mentioning how I spent "
$45 on fuel last season and how I have about six gallons left still" to my powerboater acquaintances... you should see the different colors their faces go through...
It's very amusing to watch.

You know what the first rule of sailing is? ...Love. You can learn all the math in the 'verse, but you take
a boat to the sea you don't love, she'll shake you off just as sure as the turning of the worlds. Love keeps
her going when she oughta fall down, tells you she's hurting 'fore she keens. Makes her a home.
