There must be a pretty good book just involving the Key Largo Steeple chase.

Tad, has your last misadventure at Tradewinds gotten funny yet, or is the wound too fresh?

While you were having your misadventure, I was bobbing along in the middle of the Hobie fleet, sort of trying to control my drift to a key off in the distance. Arie was with the boat. . . somewhere. . . trying to get back aboard.

Sailing, you gotta love it.
