Heck, I didn’t even know Southern Boating HAD a swimsuit issue!
Still, I’m sure some readers will appreciate my article on Automated External Defibrillators, appearing in the April issue. After looking at the swimsuit pictures, I think I had heart palpitations myself!
This was a really interesting article to research. I learned a lot about cardiac arrest (not the same as a heart attack), and about these compact, self-contained, and in some cases waterproof devices.
PS to my regular readers: The reason things have been slow around here lately is due to a kitchen remodel that’s experiencing a fare bit of "mission creep". The result is that things are pretty disrupted at home, and it’s affecting everything else.
For over two weeks, just as an example, I’ve been cooking breakfast out in the carport on my Magma grill, which works very well EXCEPT for the unusually coarse flame control valve. It has settings I would call "high", "very high", and "nuclear meltdown". I have to shut it off and turn it on manually to keep my skillet at an appropriate temperature, but it can be done! I’ve got to research a more precise control with better low-flame control. More on this later.

Congrats Tim
I mentioned this on the cruisers forum, and someone got all mad at me for thinking this was the instant cure for a heart attack. Did you read that thread?
Not trying to be all in your face or anything, just thought my suggestion that people equip the boat with an AED was a pretty good idea.
