That wasn't an Eagles tune, and it was eighty feet of waterline, not forty.

That’s what I get for working from memory.

But, in real life ‘Travis’s’ sailboat has about 40’ of waterline, thus ADAPTED from Southern Cross. ;-p

80 feet on the waterline.....shoot, do you know how much bottom paint costs?

I'll up the ante to 80 feet on the waterline if and when I sell a million books.
