This critter is white . . . . . . . but . . . . . . . if it looks like a duck, walks like a duck and quacks like a duck then . . . . . . . well, you know.

Reminiscing about your trips on Cut Time, there seems to be a common theme here buddy.

Great series! I like #3. When I was a teen, we raised that kind of duck and sold them for the dinner table. Guess who had to remove the feathers. Memories of the Great Depression.

There is a common theme, brother Bob. The coming spring has stirred my sailing instincts (developed over 5 decades), which didn't go away after selling Cut Time . The good news is that after some storms today, we're going to have some great sunny weather perfect for taking the roadster for a cruise or two.

Thank you! You know, I'm not sure I was aware there even is such a thing as a white duck; a quick search on Google assured me that I wasn't hallucinating.
