Sailing for Kadizzle has come full circle. The Sovereign is gone and sorely missed that 34 foot boat was loyal and like a lost pet. Now, Kadizzle has the Rusty 1. The Rusty 1 is a little 14 ft daysailer. The Rusty `1 has been a curse so far. Towing it back from Cliff's it came off the trailer. It had to be repaired. That is when Kadizzle met Rusty 1. Rusty 1 was engaged to repair the boat. Three months ago Rusty said he would have the boat fixed in two weeks. Rusty is writing a manual on how to make excuses. Yesterday Kadizzle went to pick up the little boat. The boat does not like to be towed. On the way home Kadizzle looked out the back window of the truck. It seemed like the trailer was sitting low. Sure enough the trailer came off the hitch and only the safety chains saved the day. When Kadizzle first met Rusty 1 he explained his assistant was also named Rusty. So Rusty said he is known as Rusty 1 and his helper is Rusty 2. If you added them together you would not get Rusty 3. If you are lucky you get something less than one Rusty. In honor of Rusty 1 the boat will take his name. Originally Kadizzle agreed to pay Rusty 1 $450. Magically that figure creeped up to $550. Just in case Rusty every reads this there must be a disclaimer. Rusty is a good guy with a good sense of humor. Rusty could fit in any little town gas station or be dropped right into hillbilly heaven. To hasten the job Kadizzle perpetually promised Rusty a case of beer. The final payment included the beer. Sadly the dump truck load of beer cans in Rusty's yard is gone. Someone came and recovered the aluminum, so Rusty must start again.
