Username change

Just FYI, I changed my username (previously eastbaylostboys) to honor the name of my Dad's boat (best friend). He had a stroke recently and is recovering. He is the man who started my love affair with the Ocean at the age of four months. Thank you to the staff at Sailnet for making an exception and their consideration.

A reasonable accommodation for a good reason. I wish your father a speedy recovery.

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.
