    Why were they spraying the side of the hull down with water? Initially I thought to cool the sliding surfaces, but they were nowhere near it.

    I was happy to see they all had on their hardhats under there! Can you imagine having a boat fall on your head without one?
    For topical application, only. Not to be taken internally or used in com-
    bination with other drugs or alcohol, except as directed by your shaman.
    Do not operate heavy equipment, unless you actually know how to.
