Phil, I hear what you're saying, and I even agree with you - but the gadget mentioned isn't a dinghy-towing device; it's a replacement for davits that raises the dinghy mostly out of the water, and can even flip it up over your stern for storage. Frankly, I think that they were drinking Screech the day they named it "Dinghy-Tow", since it mostly doesn't. :) Pics here: http://www.dinghy-tow.com/ -- OKOPNIK CONSULTING Custom Computing Solutions For Your Business Expert-led Training | Dynamic, vital websites | Custom programming 443-250-7895 http://okopnik.com _______________________________________________ Liveaboard mailing list [email protected] To adjust your membership settings over the web http://liveaboardonline.com/mailman/listinfo/liveaboard To subscribe send an email to [email protected] To unsubscribe send an email to [email protected] The archives are at http://www.liveaboardonline.com/pipermail/liveaboard/ To search the archives http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected] The Mailman Users Guide can be found here http://www.gnu.org/software/mailman/mailman-member/index.html
