A19- i'm answering all the trip and video questions on the board rather than by PM so everyone can read them... (you wrote) Bravo! Sitting in my office and watching the snow fall outside, the video has made my day. Questions: What was the name of your boat? What was the name of the song? How tall was the buoy? This was really a great piece of work - thank you and your amigos for sharing the trip with us. I loved it. when gary bought the boat it came with the name "doghouse". greg and i said, "you can't keep that name. that's like waving a flag and shouting through a bullhorn -- HEY EVERYBODY, NOW HEAR THIS, I AM PUSSYWHIPPED!!!!!" he said he's been meaning to change it but he's been doing so many things to the boat in prep work that he hadn't had time and besides, he hadn't thought of the right name for it yet. he said, "i know the perfect name will come to me on the trip while we're out on the ocean." he owns and operates a sign making company in santa fe so the lettering will be a piece of cake for him. he made these for my boat after i did the flaming A off the dock last summer: mywebpages.comcast.net when he heard the lyle lovett song wafting from the boat's stereo speakers he announced that the new name for the boat had been revealed to him... "TONTO!" the name of the song is "If I Had A Boat": If I had a boat I'd go out on the ocean And if I had a pony I'd ride him on my boat And we could all together Go out on the ocean Me upon my pony on my boat If I were Roy Rogers I'd sure enough be single I couldn't bring myself to marrying old Dale It'd just be me and trigger We'd go riding through them movies Then we'd buy a boat and on the sea we'd sail And if I had a boat I'd go out on the ocean And if I had a pony I'd ride him on my boat And we could all together Go out on the ocean Me upon my pony on my boat The mystery masked man was smart He got himself a Tonto 'Cause Tonto did the dirty work for free But Tonto he was smarter And one day said Kimo Sabe Kiss my ass I bought a boat I'm going out to sea And if I had a boat I'd go out on the ocean And if I had a pony I'd ride him on my boat And we could all together Go out on the ocean Me upon my pony on my boat And if I were like lightning I wouldn't need no sneakers I'd come and go wherever I would please And I'd scare 'em by the shade tree And I'd scare 'em by the light pole But I would not scare my pony on my boat out on the sea And if I had a boat I'd go out on the ocean And if I had a pony I'd ride him on my boat And we could all together Go out on the ocean Me upon my pony on my boat the buoy is about 15-20 ft high. here is the data it sends. you can even get the data via telephone (dial-a-buoy) looks like they had some 11.5 ft waves out there this morning at 5 am. YIKES! the water was flat when we zipped by it. thank you jesus. ndbc.noaa.gov i'm glad you enjoyed the video. i did too. it's a cool reminder of an excellent adventure. -dusters ps- here's a map of the route we sailed: mywebpages.comcast.net
