    Somebody asked me off-list:

    >Why are we building a Rube Goldberg to measure through-the-water speed?

    Mainly, because I am working my way up to the title of the cheapest bastard
    on this list :)

    In fact, the Holy Grail here is a log which is:

    1. Trailerable;
    2. Working both under sail and under power;
    3. Independent of the main 12v system;
    4. Indicating the distance travelled through the water.
    5. Reasonably priced (under 100 usd).

    Walker Log is everything but (5).
