What? What?
Was that what Vinnie used
to say?
Something like that.....
Since you say you are "new" to
sailing/cruising, it becomes easier
to recognize your inexperience in
terms of ...... " packs .... smaller".
I'll just steer well clear of your
hardy vessel when sighting her
off my weather beam, c'est tout ~

Greeting all , I am new to the group and to voyaging.I have spent 23
years swinging my yachts around the buoys and screaming at crew and
have decided to give it a rest(the bank balance that is)and go
cruising.I live on the Northern East Coast of New Zealand and
regulary see foreign rubbish washed up on shore or out in the
harbour.Why throw anything overboard?The packaging weighs less and
stores less than when you put it on board , it suprised me when I saw

It is amazing what you see floating out there.
