Bah and humbug  I survived just fine in IXB all the way to autumn 1944. Then I just got bored and started a fresh career. Niners are great boats if you know how to use them and use some common sense.

It takes a certain kind of skipper for an IX boat. Besides, theres some real lucrative waters in the caribean and east coast of florida, your not gonna get there in an type 7
