Tips? Lee, you want tips? Here are two:

1) Fasten the boat to the trailer when stored
2) Don't land on the beach like a lawn dart

My vote for Lee as well and I'm glad that the story about the ear is finally hitting the forum. He spontaneously became a sew-up doctor, well glue-up anyway, and made a broken guy whole enough again that made the difference between having to go to the hospital and being able to get back on the water in the Tiger Nationals.

I am also looking forward to seeing scar pictures of this part time plastic surgeon's work.

Lee's got a contagious sense of humor that breaks the tension and turns nervous moments to good times. He's a gleaming example of the generous fellows you find in this sport.
