Hi Ben,
I am Dana. I have an 87 in Northern Minnesota. I lurk here and am not really interested in the "bar" atmosphere. I read a small fraction of the posts hoping that useful info regarding boats will show up. I generally only post stuff that I think might be useful to someone in the archives someday. Hence my old posts regarding sources for light bulbs (that somehow resulted in a political beating; go figure).

Hank:
A-What just happened?
B-What do I need to know about watts for side running lights?
C-Who's Dana?
D-It's going to be a long quiet winter on this list if all we talk about is
sailing (OK with me if that's what you all want).
E-Did I provoke Bigal with my gentle teasing? (I hope so)
F-While I don't exactly miss Ed, I do miss someone like Ed who keeps the
list alive with banter of some kind, but gentle banter, not mean banter.
G-Merry Christmas, Happy Hanukkah, Kindly Kwanza, Peaceful Ramadan, and
Happy New year.
H-What year is it?
