Thank you, Scott, for reminding everyone the List is about passagemaking. As the host and so far sole sponsor of this forum, I might point out that one of my goals is to promote passagemaking. If any subscriber is more interested in restricting passagemaking, they ought to look for another forum. The List is about passagemaking, and it is for passagemaking. It certainly isn't against passagemaking. Folks who don't share the passion for passagemaking have joined the wrong forum and will be happier elsewhere. --Georgs -- Georgs Kolesnikovs Your host at Trawlers & Trawlering, formerly Trawler World, since 1997
