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.

Let's just give it a name...

Ok..

So we don't know what the heck it's design intent is, but we should be able to give it a good name..

(Anyone wanna bet how fast the admin's shut this one down?)

I'll start:

1) Padded Shaft

I hope no one figures it out... Now it can be the excuse for y'all to come over my boat have a few beers... to check out the "Padded Shaft"

I'll be up in Magothy area on the Chesapeake bay in a few months... Y'all come by now to see it. Have a beer...

If it was Ian's boat, the crew adjustment/training device would have a lot more potential.

Well it started raining.. and I can't work on the hull anymore..

Bottom is done.. sides are getting waxed.. She's going to be launched tomorrow.. Rig tune.. Engine tune up.. etc. then next weekend I take her out. Need to get a few weekends under my belt with her before the long trip up North.. (Oriental NC, to Annapolis.)

Craig, leave that stick at the dock. I guarantee that by the time it is out of reach you will figure out what it is for because you will need it.

Murphy pretty much guarantees this, and it'll be for something really important.
