Mr. S and I bought our first sailboat back around 1985. It was a 27′ O’Day with a cuddy cabin that slept four. It was the perfect boat for our small family and looking back, I miss spending our mornings enjoying coffee on the deck and going out for an afternoon sail to Newport or one of the smaller islands in RI (like Patience and Prudence).
Back then we’d throw everything into a couple large stiff sailcloth boat totes and hope for the best. One of my biggest complaints (aside from having to clean the boat at the end of the day), was that the totes were cumbersome, stiff and very difficult to carry.
Imagine my delight to find that I no longer have to lug around these old heavy totes. Sailor Bags makes sailing bags (totes, duffels, and more) that are not only functional, but they leave out all of the resins that create those overly stiff bags and make them softer, durable and WATERPROOF. .I LOVE the fact that they’re MUCH lighter weight as well. Did I mention that they’re ATTRACTIVE? My readers know that I’m a HUGE proponent of form PLUS function and Sailor Bags have been able to fuse a wonderfully practical bag that will keep all of your belongings dry whether you’re trimming the sails, or just spending a day at the beach with the kids. .
I’ve actually taken to using my Sailor Bags Messenger Bag (at $59 – this is a HUGE bargain) not only for toting my laptop around, but also as a handbag! As you can see, I LOVE the pockets for keeping my cell phone, keys, and makeup, organized and easy to grab. Their bags come in RED, WHITE or BLUE sailcloth and
I just LOVE finding wonderful fashionable items at the most unexpected places. A handbag from your local Ship’s Store or DIRECTLY from Sailor Bags (shipping is only $2.99 per order) to complete your summer nautical look? Absolutely!

laptops says
Portable computers, originally monochrome CRT-based and developing into the trendy laptop, were originally considered to be a small niche market, mostly for specialised field applications like the military, accountants and sales representatives. As moveable computers became smaller, lighter, and cheaper and as screens became larger and of better quality, laptops became very widely used for all styles of purposes.

I truly enjoy reading your blog and I look forward to your new updates.

Hey there just wanted to give you a quick heads up. The words in your content seem to be running off the screen in Ie. I’m not sure if this is a formatting issue or something to do with web browser compatibility but I thought I’d post to let you know. The design and style look great though! Hope you get the problem solved soon. Cheers

In the awesome scheme of things you receive an A with regard to effort. Where exactly you misplaced everybody was first in all the specifics. You know, it is said, the devil is in the details… And it could not be more accurate in this article. Having said that, permit me inform you just what did deliver the results. The writing can be rather engaging and this is probably why I am making an effort in order to opine. I do not make it a regular habit of doing that. Second, despite the fact that I can certainly see a leaps in reasoning you make, I am not necessarily confident of exactly how you seem to unite the details which inturn make the actual conclusion. For right now I will, no doubt subscribe to your issue however trust in the future you actually connect the facts better.
