Wow. Thats a beautiful boat. I am jealous. You don’t happen to own a Harley as well do you? Cause if you do I just might ask you to marry me. ---

Have fun! I’ve never got to ride a boat like that…sail by sometime and pick me up, okay? ---

**obfus** , dude, you’re so there. **Lux** , umm, now? You’ve _always_ had to call me Cap’n… **Omni** : Ssshhhh! Damn, don’t go messin’ up my gig! 😉 **JayLa** , I know, I lived in Tacoma for four years. also, psycat has family up in the area, so we may just head up that way in the next few years. I used to rollerblade on the waterfront and cycle over the narrows bridge and look out jealously at all the people enjoying the sound. ::sigh:: **Whammo** , no Harley, but my next toy is definitely going to be a bike. Hopefully a Valkyrie. :: drool :: ---

I too am SO there for a SF Sailing fest. If you head down Santa Barbara way, what better port to stop off in than Monterey, and pick me up :)? ---

Doob, that sounds like a great idea. A Monterey stopover on the way to the Channel Islands, that is. Let me get my charts… 😉 ---

Baglady and I are now officially beginning Operation Demo’s Best Friend. And I really like the idea of being the Millionaire (but I am not going to brink trunks of cash on the boat with me). ---

As a reincarnated viking allow me to offer my sailing skills for your crew. (I used to sail with the senior skipper of the CAL sailing club.) You may even be able to get me to take a turn in the galley. Congratulations! PS: I know of a great dock on Bethel Island just waiting for you to tie up at. ---

I know somebody that’s getting a ruffled shirt and an eye-patch for Christmas! I’m pretty excited about the boat,though it is obviously Demo’s baby. I suppose we’ll need to have a christening party, too. (Any excuse for alcohol, folks, just go along with me.) ---

If I ever get a boat, I’m thinking of naming her _Miso Honei_ or _Gojira Maru_. ---
