Rag Bagger With Notes

__________________ RAG BAGGER What is a blowboat which way does the warm wind blow Im lashed to the mast GINSU - KNIFE EASTPORT , MAINE USA Ginsu Knife was the name of my sailboat that I sailed for years here on the Maine coast and into the Bay of Fundy, Canada. That boat could slice and dice the strong currents and cut through the Downeast fog like a hot knife through butter. After my wife died and it was just me and my daughter , age 9, I was after something that we could do together. I looked at airplanes and boats. Im a pilot and had a grass airstrip in the back field, but I lived on the coast. I ended up with a sailboat , though I did not know how to sail. Well , we learned to sail and did lots of it, plus it was a good weekender with cozy bunks and and a nice little stove. Best decision I ever made. Daughter went on to being an ocean exploration team leader and sailing coach at a summer camp. Yes , she is quite salty. As is her daughter. Family tradition.
