    Looking down at the equity I have
    Hanging my drunken head
    With open eyes
    Look at my nice hardwood floor
    Maple trees from where I grew up
    I can only afford
    Six hundred and thirty square feet of it
    Look at my buggered feet and my dirty toe nails
    Look again
    Look at my hands
    Worn out shark skin tools
    Stained from years
    Years that will shrink any lover from my old frame
    I am a man doing the dirty work
    For a rich mans *****

    Put the bottle back...

    Poetry is a dangerous thing after you've knocked back a few.

    by the way - how is the motor-sailor project progressing? Still set on 25foot with the daggerboard with bulb? Have enjoyed your posts on this - even the poetic ones.

    Sean, you had/have a website? I'm sure I lost track of it. Any updates to it in the past 6 months?

    As for me, I'd rather dispense with the engine room and just stick with banging and head.
