the group inspected every inch of the

mechanical device that would enable
the craft TO take hurdles at sea.
Sceptical yet mystified, they re-
turned on deck, lines were cast OFF,
and the little craft poked her nose
toward Fire Island for the test. Out
in the bay the skipper sighted

inches above the water, and guided
