Great Boat Show weekend!



Toured some yachts we could never afford, splurged on some gear, saw Bob Bitchin shilling for his advertisers (am I the only one who thinks that's the only real point to his videos?). Oh well, at least we got the gear.

Couple news items:

-- If you were able to get aboard that lovely Hinckley at the show, you might be interested in this story over the weekend in the NY Times that points to troubled waters for the company.

-- Australian yachtsman Andrew Short, a Sydney-Hobart and Volvo veteran is killed along with his navigator, Sally Gordon, after washing up on the rocks off Flinders island in the Bass Strait. That's Short above in happier times. Sad news indeed.
