    My copy is falling apart from rereading so often (erm....in the Gentlemans' Early Morning Library. ;))

    I wish someone would do a new book.

    Oh man, does that bring back memories ...hard to believe it's been almost 30 years ago. Just about everyone I knew had a copy. Who could forget "How To Walk Down a Dock"

    (Reminded me of Mad Magazine - which I loved as a kid in the 60's.)

    Yeah a new one based on one of the super yacht magazines would be very funny.

    The plane/boat pictured above is docked in my neighborhood, looks about the same.

    Based on a Boeing 307 Stratoliner from the 40s:

    I remember seeing that when taking a class at MPT - was wondering if it was the start of a new trend - guess not if it is that old :rolleyes:
