    Roger's on our blogroll and well worth two looks. How would you like to dig up a couple of examples and I'll see if I can light a fire under the Links Editor to get them installed in our Commercial Links & DIY area?

    Lovely boat, btw.

    Nice vid, Paul. Would have been a bit more helpful had there been some related commentary. I suppose I don't have enough sea sense to perceive the difference simply from the visuals.

    Do you, or does anyone else here, have a Jordan Series Drogue?

    Have you, or anyone else here, ever deployed one? Can anyone here comment?

    Should I add this drogue to the links?
