Well, if someone offered any of us $5million to skipper a boat in a series
... ; ) I think Hemingway had it right when he answered Fitzgerald's musing
that "the rich are not like you and I" - "no they have more money" ; )

I guess that too is sailing.

Enjoying the dialogue to be sure.

An 80 foot boat on Lake Geneva ... hmmm - that would be interesting.

Cheers,

John
