HOw's things going John?

You'd enjoy it, and we'd enjoy your stand-up comedy like one liners!!

Only 1 tool? I think I have to bring the one that God gave me. Second, marlin spike with a blade and shacke thing.

Actually, the best thing that I always have is "TOW BOAT US". $110.00 per year, a little more for road coverage. Don't leave shore without it.

If you could only take one TOOL out on your cat for emergency repairs and jury-rigging, what would it be?

If you take your wallet, what are you going to do with it? Throw it at the problem out on the water? I always keep a $20 bill in my life jacked incase I get stranded someplace close to a bar.

Happy Sunday.

Very perceptive John, most peoples minds are in the gutter.

butt seriously, twice I have used the Tow Boat card, Once in Steeple Chase where I demasted and one other time when I ran out of fuel, similar to demasting. No tool can help you in this situation. SO, bring yer tool and get a Tow Boat account of some sort, and a radio, and a GPS, and flares, and an anchor (right Mary?)

See you in church.
