I wonder if my wife will take offense if I start calling her "sugarloaf" ?

I am a little worried about making headway against a tidal current back into the channel.  I will be watching the current charts closely so I am returning on a slack tide, but do you have any other tips for sailing a slow boat in fast water?

Just talked to the bartender(for information only) and he confirms 7:00.  If that wasnt enough of a clue, wr've made it down safely, despite a stuck emergency brake and my non-stop worrying about the trailer hubs.  I'll be the gooffy looking guy with the inexplicably beautiful wife and 5 year son.  My name is Bert, if the need to curse it shall ever arise.

Tomorrow I sail for Looe key to go diving.  If I am not there to say hi on Saturday, send the coast guard to look for me about 40 miles adrift east.  Tell them to bring beer, I'll be thirsty.

Ok Bert!!  Well hopefully we'll get to meet you and your family tonight.  If you are stuck at sea we'll definetly send beer out with the Coast Guard ha ha ha
