[Rhodes22-list] Flyboy Brad

[Wally Buck]

Ed,

My Mortgage copany is sponsoring two boats in the Volvo Round the World 
Race. They have a great web site with new video each month. Last months 
video - they are pulling a wakeboarder while cruising at 20 knots.

I never new my mortgage company was this cool. I am glad to know the money 
they are making off me is going to a good cause.

Forecast here is for winds 20 - 30, if I can find some crew I am heading to 
the lake.

Wally
