JohnBoy,I have had the pleasure of meeting some of the legends of small boating and look forward to meeting you.http://www.wmbb.com/Global/story.asp?S=14766802...
You're doing the good work. Even though I think the plastic ice is a bit heretical, keep it up, skating on plastic ice is better than no skating I guess. Seth ...
John Boy and Amanda-  You are two really good people. The problem I would have would be not wanting to let the children go again and I honestly don't know...

With almost 1,000,000 boats registered in Florida, it's a guarantee that about 900,000 have no clue. I recently had a guy cut me off in a sweet looking 24 ft ...
... Seth, when both boats are going upwind "yield to the right" is usually correct but when reaching and running things change. For example, when two boats...
