> Well it's nice to be noticed, I think?  My name is Jerry Barnett sailing
the former "New Song" on Brookville Lake, IN.  This recycled 1999 boat was
purchased from Stan in 2004.  Renamed "Jonquil", with new yellow hull paint.
Three Rhodes on the lake, this is very good luck for me, being a new sailor.

So, Doug and Marc, is it true that if I happen to be sailing along in the
same general direction as either of you, it's a race?  jerry
