many thanks

My thanks to those who have helped me in my boat search. Especially those who volunteered to look at boats for me.
T34C, Art by Jody & PBzeer all looked over different boats and gave valuable feedback. Thanks again to all of you.
And thanks to all the sailnutters who answered questions both on the forum and privately.

One more question...does the pointy end go in the front?

Only if your boat isn't a double ender..

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.
