Best argument for female crew I've heard so far.

The girls on the other hand, are enthusiastic, helpful, hardly eat, even do some of the cooking, stand watches, and the last two even volunteered to clean the hull. And, they are much more pleasant to be around, smell better, and look a heck of a lot better either in or out of a bikini.

Dirty old man, OK, I can deal with that!

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.

Of course, Ian retains a modicum of respectability by not soliciting. That would be tacky.
