Soma I suspect you have more time in cats than I ever will, but with all due respect, it’s not terribly hard to pitchpole a cat.

Amen. I buy boats to sail with her. Works amazing.

Finland is awesome. Just sayin.

Wet sand for heavy oxidation, but only if you have to. Follow that with buffing and wax. I agree, you won’t see any speed diff on a cat with wax. Also, when buffing, you can use wool on gel coat, but use waffle pads on paint. I use Starbrite and the Collinite. Will try ceramic next.

A little racing experience would fix that

Do you know why Scotsmen wear kilts? Because sheep can hear a zipper.

There's a helicopter on the way to Mars right now. Talk to those people. I'm sure they've figured out the air density thing. At least, as long as the people who whacked the Mars Climate Orbiter straight into Mars at a few thousand mph, after using the wrong unit measure, aren't involved.

I think I would enjoy being part of a rational society that had its shit together, lockdown or no.

I removed the existing single blocks and installed double blocks in the same location. On my boat, it is the aft most bungee, and runs back and forth 5 times between the hulls, right about where the trap lines are.

Thank you Simon; that makes sense.
