Copied from another boating forum:
| Quote: | Cruising: boat repair in exotic locations.
SEE ALSO...
Cruising: sailing your boat to exotic destinations to work on it.
Yachting: cruising your boat to exotic destinations to pay someone else to work on it.
Anchor: Any of a number of heavy hookshaped devices that are dropped over the side of a boat on on the end of a length of line and/or chain, and which are designed to hold a vessel securely in place until a) the wind exceeds 2 knots, b) the owner and crew depart, or c) 3 am. |
