I would but my 'script expired in October & can't convince ..um...."the
B****" that i need a renewal....if it was her mag it's be renewed in a
second....oh well..she did let me spend the gas to go get John's "Mejor Que
Nada"........
Personally MAIB is the best little boat mag around i still have my 24 issues
on my den bookshelf, along side my 6 issues of WaterCraft & my WoodenBoats &
Classic Boats...
Can't get Barnes & Noble to stock Watercraft, though they sell WoodenBoat &
Classic Boat..."Don't sell enough issues" they told me. We are in the heart
of "floating bath tub" county. They make SeaDoo, Sea Ray, & Baltimore Whalers
here in Brevard County...YUCK!.....
Marina's are full of plastic & few wooden boats to be found around here...

Henry,
The latest, Jan 1, 2000, issue of Messing About In Boats has a great
article about a Pond Yacht that crossed New Zealand's Cook Strait in
about 12 hours. (about 25 miles) To make it more remarkable, it was a
forty year old vane controlled boat converted to radio control. Great
article with pictures of the boat being followed by sharks! Check it
out.

My wife and I gave each other a 22' Seaward with a new 8 hp Honda 4
stroke and a new main sail and roller furling etc. Can't wait to try her
in the keys!
