Top ten reasons we never leave the dink in the water overnight:
1. dink doesn't spend the night rubbing its
outboard against the bootstripe
2. dink doesn't make that constant "chop! chop! chop!
noise in the wavelets
3. dink in the
davits creates a barrier from someone climbing up our sugar scoop
4. it really irritates the
barnacles to be out of the water all night
5. I won't have to worry about the dink if I need to cut and run
6. dink harder to steal than the last one, which we didn't lock to the pushpit (Anyone seen it?)
7. it drains the water that mysteriously accumulates between the
hull and the sole
8. hanging the dink discourages sea lions from spending the night aboard
9. hanging the dink makes the owner feel that the
davits were a good investment
10. my boat looks bigger with the dink in the davits
