Lady Di and I are now enjoying some quiet times in Block Island. We too had a
blast meeting fun folks and reveling in the our chosen marque.
I appreciate all the kind words andwant to thank many folks for their ready

Per the directive, we went boldly home. We saw gusts to 25 kts on the beam
and speed over the water at warp 8.5 (9.3 over the bottom). It was one of
the most enjoyable sails I can remember. We covered the 52 miles home in
under 8 hours! But the best part was meeting all the dedicated C&Cers and
I agree with Fred that 12 is huge, but I could see a 9 inch only because
they seem to run 7, 9, 12. There are buttons on the side, increasing the
size of the case. Plus it looks like a model being replaced. Imagine the
size of the mounting pod, especially if it is going to contain other "toys".
12" is a HUGE chartplotter for a boat your size. Anything over 8" would be
overkill, especially if you're trying to put it at the helm, where it'll do the
most good. IMHO...

My deck project has evolved enough so that I can contemplate re-installing the

If you want to tie loops or jack lines or whatever with webbing use a "water
