Do you remember the name of their boat??? I don't generally remember people's names all that well, but I do much better with boat names.

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.

No, I can't remember. I think it had a green hull... but do not quote me. He was a builder in the Neast.

Early onset... such a shame... The woman looks familiar, but I can't place from where... I'll see if I can remember who I'm thinking of and drop her a line to see if what kind of boat she has.

CD...don't you see that people that have met you while crusing are trying to stay away from you.....
They are trying to keep a "low profile" after meeting you...why do this to them????
They're on a witness protection program kind of...to stay away from you....
Please, leave them alive, let them live quietly...its going to cost the Federal Government a Million, just to relocate them after yoy spalshed their faces all over the net....
Please go build something on your boat...install a picket fence around it...
by the way...do you have a picket fence around your boat??? NO???????
Well go buy one....Home depot has sales now....ehehehehe

The girl looks very familiar, but I swear the guy is a funiture-cabinet maker from the Newport, RI area, who has worked on a couple of my architectural projects. Not going to mention his name, since I could be wrong, but he is a sailor . . . then again, who from Newport isn't?

TB- Isn't funny how most guy sailors will recognize the pretty woman more readily than the guy... 
You could ask him if he was recently down there sailing in the Tortugas and ran into a sunburnt texan on a floating barge solar electric power plant with exploding barbeque grills hanging off of it.

I will send him an email - but based on what I know about CD, he's most likely chosen to forget about that Tortugas fiasco . . . .
