Hi Jeremy,

Actually, I do have some vague recollection of all that, you are absolutely correct... I met one of those guys in Lauderdale many years ago, his work was pure perfection, I should have remembered that...

Have you been back to Antigua lately, Jeremy? I really enjoyed my time there, we stayed on for about 6 days after our arrival in Jolly Harbor... Had a couple of interesting chats with the manager there, a very impressive guy. Fascinating history of the development of that place... Just don't get him started on the subject of the overall build quality of the average contemporary production sailboat... (grin)

best regards,

Jon
