CORRIGENDUM

A LATIN WORD MEANING 'IN NEED OF CORRECTION'
Willow, who knows a thing or two about boats, has drawn my attention to my misuse of the word 'sporting',which is short for 'disport' and means 'to show'.
No...the super-maxis DO NOT have up to 4.5 square kilometers of sail set to wind. What I meant to say was that this is the total area of sails stored or in use aboard the yacht.
Sorry...and I will correct the posting sometime today.
