OK, two things I found amusing...

"The sailors are being warned about possible waterspouts."

Good news is, you know they're coming. Bad news is, what the hell can you do about it??? Ruby slippers?

Speaking of appropriate gear, SI 10.5 allows "small paddles." What other kind can you fit on one of these boats?

Yes, it's been a long winter. Can't wait for Madcatter...
