    oh oh... not that topic again.... i started a thread like that once.... lol

    This does bring up my question of:
    How long before we see commercial cargo sailing vessels again ?

    Heck I'm all for banning non-wind powered ships. lol
    Just think of it !!
    No more foo foo 200 passenger cruise eyesores.
    Beautiful locations devoid of the millions of tourists.
    Harbours filled with clippers <VGB>
    Just gotta figure out an alternative to the old drip dry head hanging over the
    bow. lol

    Have a good weekend !
    Roy
