    I grew up boating. However, Jan's introduction to boating was when we got
    our first boat, a 28' express bridge. Easter weekend (we'd owned the boat
    all of a week) we went out for a day cruise. Jan had just bought some
    Easter Lilies and put them on the dinette. After all, that's the way all
    the boats are shown in the pictures. I didn't know she had done so and
    hadn't thought to ask. When she went below later she was most dismayed to
    find the lilies on the cabin sole and dirt all over. I told her that was
    what the galley sink was for, to put things in so they didn't tip over. Now
    Jan is much more thorough about securing for sea than I am, and the bottle
    of red wine is always moved from the galley counter into the sink. Some
    things you just can't risk losing. :)
