Todd, Nice photos (as always). Isn't funny that someone would have invested so much money in a large yacht yet not know enough to trim their sails at least little better than that! I enjoyed the story. So sorry to hear that Bilbo has seen his last sailing trip. I have really enjoyed seeing pics of him accompanying you on all your sailing trips. I understand, as only another dog lover can, how difficult it is to see your friend of so many years starting to struggle. Last year I lost both of my pups of thirteen and fourteen years respectively. My hat is off to you for recognizing that even though you'd still love to have him along every time you sail, that he has reached the point where it's just not comfortable for him anymore. I hope that even though Bilbo has "hung up his foulies for the last time" you guys still have many years ahead to enjoy each others company. Sean
