But I’m my case rowing home with the transom still attached is preferable to calling the CG due to an oyster bed.
I try not to be an idiot but it just keeps happening.

I assumed it was a name created like many combination words these days, it's "marine" and "epoxy" that share the last and first letter, as in
Marin(e)poxy. I think it's like Directv, if you try to divide it you get Direc TV, or Direct V, not really their intention.

Today Lil Bit delivered on her most important mission. She ferried her Majesty to the edge of the world. Mrs gets it. She really does!

Jacques, thank you for the wonderful design. She handles the ocean well. Mrs kept saying “I know she’s small but I feel safe!”
