The Red Boat Left the Port.
Never trust that the other guy understands who has the right of way.
Something always breaks.
Nothing ever goes as planned.
Your boat and your crew are only has good as your weakest link.
Remember to laugh at your self.

Good judgement is the result of experience, usually the experience of using bad judgement.
