Oh, heck! I gotta admit you are blessed, CD. The fact that you are actually a nice guy is out of the question and so I can only explain your luck by reference to divine providence.

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.

The tender? It is just a plain old mercury and outboard. In fact, it has a problem keeping air.

What are you guys talking about? All I saw was a nice Tayana tied up alongside and the kids swimming off the dock.

CD,

That is a really nice spoiler that you have mounted on the stern of your boat. Does that help to keep the aft end properly trimmed at high speeds?
