WE SPENT THE DAY ON ENGINE HOPING, WISHING, AND PRAYING FOR SOME WIND. WE CAN SEE THE CLIFFS OF DOVER FROM AFAR, ACRES OF WINDFARMS, AND NUMEROUS SHIPS AS WE NAVIGATE THROUGH THE BUSY ENGLISH CHANNEL. WITHOUT SAIL MANEUVERS, WE PASS THE TIME BY REPAIRING RATLINES (WEBELEINE) AND COMPAIRING HOW MANY PAIRS OF PANTS WE EACH HAVE ON UNDER OUR FOULIES. THE WINNERS ARE SHORTS WITH NO FOULIES AND FOUR PAIRS OF PANTS!
