T&T: Love the sound of halyards

[Joel Wilkins]

As the owner of on of those boats with a stick in it I can say that I
absolutely HATE halyard noise. I do everything in my power to ensure there is
no slapping. Fortunately our dockmaster sees it the same way (another rag
bagger) and our marina has got to be one of the quietest is that regard.
 
What cannot be quieted as easily is the incessant noise of A/C overboard in
the summer. And guess where that noise comes from by and large... yep, big
powerboats with discharges about 2-3 feet off the waterline.
