Congratulations to a great guy.

I have always been jealous that you are able to live in such a wonderful part

of the world ,I read a 'Steinbeck' book when I was young about sailing in

Baja California , it fascinated me ever since , But you deserve to have the

best mate because you have shown yourself to be an ace guy to us all here,

you have passed onto us all that you have learned , and that has been heaps

never have you been anything but well mannered and respectful which is all

that is needed for a fabulous member and all time "Legend" Bien hecho amigo

What would SD be without that prickly little darling. - ray76, Jun 30, 2015
I'm imitating you with the logo because it's such a neat idea. You know what they say: imitation is the best form of flattery. - Sassette, Jun 30, 2015
I am very much flattered by both of you Sassette and Ray - porcupine7, Jun 30, 2015

Last commercial sailing ship

Muy bien hecho amigo.

You are now in the high rigging and probably at the top of the SD mast.

Ahora se encuentra en el alto aparejo /jarcia y, probablemente, en la parte superior del mástil SD.

Sure is amiga - just imagine if the wind got up. A mad scrambled up those masts - not something I would like. - ian-hill, Jun 30, 2015

That's so many points, you must have cheated...just kidding! smile

I am very impressed that you were able to speak Spanish fluently with the former President of Mexico.

Congratulations, that is a lot of points. I always enjoy reading your input, knowing it is from someone who lives in Mexico and uses the language on a daily basis. And thanks especially for some of the tips on slang.

You're welcome. Mexican Spanish is more slang than correct Spanish. You need it here. Thank you. - gringojrf, Jun 30, 2015
