[Public-List] The Best Crafts that Sailed the Open Seas

[Glenn]

Ahaha, well the "open seas" in southern california never have a sea state over 1' and winds above 10 kts.  So perfect for the 20000 or so gin palaces that catalina has floated ore the ocean blue. And isn't Beneteau French for "water dog"'  or is that water log??
