Thank you for that vote of confidence Jack, look forward to it myself - I'm sure I'll come up with something witty, exciting and useful - to somebody at least!

Can you handle it?
Thats why people go to sea in the first place.
To find out.

When you go to sea again you really want to go some where nice and sunny.
But if the wind blows up you are also a little curious about how bad it will get.

Eventually you will find your own level for sphincter loosening fear, and try to arrange your seatime a little below this threshhold.

But every now and then the wind will blow a little harder than you expected and scare the crap out of you.

And if youve done it then youve loved every minute of it.
Afterwards.

Not much of an advert for sailing is it? Don't let Wilma Ham see this.
Enclosed pilothouse should solve these issues.
