    Moored up close to this little boat yesterday.

    "Cadix"

    The owner not exactly squeaky clean…..

          That's a lot of rudder work.  Do you not have a steering wheel knob?

              Yes, a GOOD ART HLYWD one, but the steering wheel is mounted vertically, and the bottom is too far to get to without ducking down. Which rather defeats the purpose  😃

                So that's where you put it…That has to be the coolest wheel knob (or shifter knob) ever created!

                  I dropped a fender into the water, I was holding the rope. We were doing about 6 knots, the fender submarined, and your hero tried to hold on.. salutary lesson, no one was watching, and there by the grace of God, I did not end up in the water. Would have tested the AIS beacon on my life jacket, and @Madame Buttonfly would have been able to tick off the MOB part of her course  😉

                    I should probably start apologizing ahead of time.

                    To late now honour your words now  😉

                    I meant to my wife.

                        Well, there is that  😃 😃 😃

                        But, I think it would be a very bad mark for Ben, the instructor, if he lost a client….🤞🤞

                                          No, got far too much else to do that weekend….
