Stan-
You obviously don't mean just the cover. The sails most suited were the 
red ones you had on the demo boat a few years ago. People near me are 
still talking about that one. I'd tried to keep this question neutral, 
but not much is.

I'm due late afternoon Friday, but the dog always shared it with me. 
Why the change??

How's the heat for paint drying, etc.? Save some paperwork for me.
