Yay! If I remember properly they were/are great boats. I believe he was somewhat a creative revolutionary. Maxed-out waterline, vertical bow,...
For what it's worth, I could find nothing when doing my naive 'virgin' research. I'd barely heard of sea anchors. Found nothing of value. But they...
PS you mentioned sea anchor rigging - did you know beloved Teschke actually used his? He's the only customer who did so -- even though I believe I...
I forgot about that Portuguese wall urinal, that was hilarious! Yes very sad story. I knew him well, we were kinda buddies; he was my 3rd...
Thanks Mapism. That was VERY educational about gyros, thanks! I've never actually spoken to anyone who has used them so this was an eye opener I...
Hello Mapism. For some reason this was just forwarded to me by the superb Yachforums, that doesn't usually happen. Maybe I presssed a magic button...

Good point captholli! Totally valid. I'll shut up now. In fact I'll just go away, I think it's all been said. Perhaps too often as you suggest....
OK that's a fair observation OlderBoater, no problem with it. Thanks for being honest with your reaction to my reaction! However I sure hope...
"Captain J", with apologies: This normally articulate guy, a best-selling boat-design book author** and an actual builder of arguably the most...
Smart move if it suits your boating style, two thumbs up. I was initially tempted by Flemings and other cool semi-displacements; 15+ knots has a...
Me too. For example I bet I was called way worse 20 times in the last day just from readers of this site! Hey it goes with the territory huh?...
SORRY BRETT, I CALLED YOU CARL! Apologies, have no idea why I did that. Duh. -Peter (just checked my name tag to be sure)
