I think this is older than when dollar was close to/above par... 6 batten waves sails in a 3.0.

I had a large starboard Start, that's supposed to get passed around for a case of beer, or bottle of Rum, but I passed it along last summer to a neighbour, I'll see if he's still using it and let you knom, We plan to be up next weekend weather permitting.
