After logging some time on the coolest surfboard available (CVN 68), I know better than to go on the ocean unless thar be a particularly good reason. Now, I would ride the Nimitz again with half a pack of skittles and a 32 card deck. The world's coolest surf board is a particularly good reason to go to sea.

Anything else - I would need some serious toys/diversions. Other boats are just, well boats. And on the Nimitz I am pretty sure you could work out something for the gizmo.

It sounds like a really cool kilt worthy appliance. I must acquire one. Then if my wife keeps prodding me to take some silly tourist cruise - I can point out that they don't allow the gizmo on board. If she can book passage on the old Grey Ghost - Me and the gizmo are happily going along.

Good work men. Job Done!

That's one of the great things about this board, the rabble is unsurpassed when it comes to sorting things out.
