^ sorry, couldn't resist.

I've been lucky enough to do some of the classic yacht races in Maine over the past 5 years or so, and I should be more dialed-in to the drill where it comes to Boats on Moorings.  

But I'm not.

The thing about moorings is: try to minimize the number of times you have to return to shore because you forgot something critical to the mission.  

Yesterday was a good lesson. Only took a few times.

So make a list and check it twice. Check it three times. You'll still forget something. But at least rowing is good exercsie.
