Great photoessay, Roger. One correction, however...the antelope was listing to port not starboard

Great story, Roger. We've grown to expect that by now.
And you learned some Czech. I'll bet Joe knows all about good Pilsner (Is that their word for beer?).
It's amazing how many interesting people seem to live in your area. Is it baja that makes them so. Or is it that only the inventive, hardy types found
a way to make a go of it in baja.
Have to admit you surprised me with this one: I thought we would be seeing pictures of deer on the beach somehow.
Good one !!

Maybe it was Roger who was listing to starboard.

Excellent good-story telling, Roger.
After blowing my morning cuppa tea all over my keyboard, I laughed 'til my tummi hurts.

That was a damn entertaining story, Roger. Especially since I know all the actors, or characters! Joe is an engineer and it shows. I was wondering
how he was going to do it. All very low tech and simple use of gravity and levers. Nice going!

Thanx Roger for a great story and even better pictures. Is Springbrook doing ok now? Is Joe's last name Sedovich? I have not seen him for 30 years or
heard much about him. Looks you old guys are still able to have some fun!....Thanx again. ++C++

Reminds of this poor guy. I was told the keel is likely to be 6 feet deep and this is a heavy sailboat.
