I thought it would be a good idea to see what it would be like (on a small boat)

Gidday Brenda, Bob and Arnold, This is Bob and Jean at Melanie's - catching up to date with your trip to-date. Looks exciting. Bet we're more comfortable than you are on this Sunday afternoon! This has been a most interesting exploration of the website. We must prevail on Melanie's computer again soon. Meanwhile, happy sailing.
