Hi Chris,
	Welcome aboard! Pull up a chair and grab a latte, or try the new  
Columbian Supremo that is over on the counter.

	Yikes! Good thing indeed. Now tell me -- this is something I've been  
wondering about -- why do boats and the accompanying motors cost so  
much? I was looking at a boat a while back and remember thinking, "I  
could get a really fine car fully loaded for that price," and it  
wasn't even a particularly huge boat.

	-Tim
