A Sailor i met today

Today while working, i was engaged in conversation of upgrading boats with a fellow sailor. one of the Blackjack players called me over after hearing the conversation and says "why dont you buy mine? it's for sale." well to make a long story short. here is his boat for sale. said he paid 1.3 for it brand new and sailed it from England. and no i cant afford it, said he wants to sell to get an 85' trawler. damn shame!

Look what else it has, a $900,000.00 and it has In mast furling. The kind that you guys all hate and say should not be on a boat.

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.

It's short at least one hull, and has a few extra 100k's on it for me.
I like my Oysters steamed and with hot sauce, not used and costly.

labatt will become famous soon enough
I'm pretty much set on not having an in-mast furler - in-boom, lazy jacks or dutchman preferred...
