The International yachting Advisory Board has received important information from the World Nutrition Panel.

Dietary Advisory:

Yachtsmen are advised to keep in mind the critical importance of maintaining a properly balanced diet during regattas and similar racing events. Beer does not, in and of itself provide sufficient nutrition for the average yachtsman. Symptoms of dietary insufficiency may include deferred yacht maintenance, excessive consumption of trashy novels, an overpowering craving for television and apathy toward opportunities for dissipation. A proper diet should include items from each of the three basic food groups. These are: CANNED, PHARMACEUTICAL and DISTILLED.

'THE LOBSTER'

Of all the creatures of the night
The lobster is my favourite
On the reefs, deep and dark, he’s wont to frolic
But he at his best with butter and garlic!
