Exclamation Someone went offshore in a Hunter!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q6Dwrz-3WW4

And thats how well it worked. Everytime I look at one of those boats the thought of going out in anything rougher than a mill pond scares me. I really don't think its possible to build a cheaper sail boat.

The keels are bolted to the chopper gun glass with what looks like maybe 3/8 bolts, maybe.

You mean the Last Chance Regatta?

We may be known as the "Ghetto Yacht club" to long islanders, but we do have some semi decent racing, kind of...

The PT boat was just so damn cool.
