Well done. SM Local. you and I are kindred spirits

I have been unable to spring off a refueling dock (built for tugs/ small ships) and bent the pulpit.

I have been unable to count to 3 [ beacons to clear before tacking] and ran aground on a flling tide with a storm brewing

I have successfully followed another idiot into shallows and ran aground

Bought a yacht and continued to do so -upgrading 3 times- blaming genetics

Came about in a swift current near a channel marker and ended up hitting it and putting a nice hole in the hull, thankfully it was well above the waterline
