Yes, yes yes, lads...

Must have been floating in another type of "liquid" at the time - sorry!

salinity of the sea water does have minute effect of the rise of the hull waterline in water... global mix of water to salt sea turn current?

If I remember rightly the translation of 'Kamakazi' is 'divine wind'; in addition in the North East of England the toilet is known as the 'karzi'

So my guess is that a 24 hour restaurant that sells beans?!!

With the above in mind I wonder if the President of Afganihistan knows this - considering his name!!

Just returned from the Boat Show.

Amazing boats, but to see all of the new and old things discussed here was great.

Didn't even take a camera with.
Highest cost boat there was 7.4 million euro and sold first weekend, I was working to show the MOKAI there first time in Europe.
Wandered every morning before it opened.

If you ever get the chance it is the show to go to, I would say easy 3-4 billion in products on the floor.
