I am happy to report for deck duty with essxjay, too! This especially after my showing at the helm as captain - compared to the more capable Joe, mweiss, and Punki. At least I know that my poor driving apply equally to both land and water. Can't wait until I start my flying lesson.

Speaking of deck duty, give me the wetsuit and I will clean the bottom for barnacles! Just in the Elliot Bay marina, Danielle (scaredofKGB) and I observed quite a few species of starfish, sea anemone, and a large jellyfish (~1m, 2-3 ft).
