Terry, It has been fun jousting with you - I never meant any offence and have taken none. My grammar is none too perfect and it wasn't yours at fault in the first place. Happy sailing.

Ah, John, On a very cold blustery day, in Connecticut, your praise of sailing; and sailing in a Montgomery is music to my ears. SPRING WILL COME: SAILING WILL BE DOABLE AGAIN. LIFE WILL RETURN TO IT'S PROPER BALANCE. Thanks for the lift! Connie ________________________________________________________________ GET INTERNET ACCESS FROM JUNO!

grammar and other stuff

"There's no women" is incorrect whether or not any of the anal retentive, grammar-loving sailors are up and running or not, as harsh a reality as that may be. Cherri It appears that any one of us could have trouble with grammar and/or sentence structure!! ;-) Mark

Scott, Looks like you have you have been doing your homework on the Flickas. Ever looked closely at it's bigger brother the Dana? Quite a boat. I have heard similar stories of blister problems on earlier Flickas, I believe pre '88. It was due to resin formulation. A Lake Superior Flicka owner by the name of Sterling Weatherford has his referb story posted on the web. Thanks for sharing your knowledge.

Correction. Lloyds is proposing this. The Royal Navy and I assume the rest of the population of the British Isles will continue refering to their vessels as she.

Ever striving for political (and grammatical) correctness, the Brits are now proposing that a boat be called an "it" instead of a "she." Then again, maybe they are referring to a PWC.
