Don't Sail

John,

I knew a captain of a 180" Coast Guard Cutter in AK who would not allow his cook to buy them with teh groceries when sailing time came around. Then again this is the same guy who would bump the radar to have it facing the same direction whn ever moored. It is a neat superstition and the reason behind it is almost understandable during the time period.
