Hey , Big Jake !

Anyone whose ever built or owned a Sail craft should be familiar with this publication . I have seen it , read it and such , on other’s boats . Mine was under sail to often to sit and read .

There’s just something about hauling on lines and seeing those sails embrace the wind or breeze , fill out and scoot you forward .

Nothing but the sound of the water and the wind through the rigging . An absolutely regal way of communicating with your inner self ! T.B.

Big Jake,

I personally dislike Facebook but I know I’m in the very, very tiny minority in that regard - however, one of the sites you linked has a picture that just made me feel as if I were breathing in the ocean air and tasting the salty sea spray … memories from my childhood on my father’s boat.

The picture to which I refer, of course, has no comparison to the boat my father had in the 1950’s save that they were both built in the 1890’s [:D].
