[Rhodes22-list] now this is a boaters book

[Mark Kaynor]

Steve,

I'll have to check that out. Seems like I saw that on a "sailor's good reads
" list. Although, having started Adelard Cole's "Heavy Weather Sailing", I'm
a bit reluctant to read anything really scary <g>.

We've got a delivery captain all lined up to bring Rachel up to the
Chesapeake from Florida next week and I'm not so sure I'm ready to get
freaked out until after we've had a chance to sail her a bit ourselves.

Mark

I'm currently in the middle of a book calle, "Thiry
Terrifing Tales of the Deep".  It's 30 short stories
of wild sailing tales.  Some of them just kind of
freak a person out.  Interesting read!
