Of course this news group is for all boats including power boats.
There is little enough activity in this group without flame type
replies like the one above discouraging new interest.  How many
of the sail boat purists have small engines on the back for harbor
maneuvering and to get in when the wind quits.  Reading this news
group may educate more of us power boaters to sailers problems so
we steer away and give sailers the right of way as power boaters
are supposed to.  Save the flames for net.flame or the seat belt
discussion in net.auto.
