Funny. Just another reason I keep tuning in.
As much as I love some of the gaseous concoctions myself, and despite the fact that they are good boat food (prepare your 4 bean chili ahead of time and simply re-heat on the boat) I don't serve chili on LaBarca whilst polite company is aboard.

However, Kevinmac will be alone with his dog, and any dog I ever met worth the title of man's best friend, will not mind some nocturnal rumblings.

Keep us posted Kevin. You now have thousands of sailors wanting know what you had for lunch, how you disposed of it, and if it caused any volcanic eruptions.

My move onto the boat go delayed, I spent the first week living in a hotel, and am there again so far this week. I got in a time crunch, and knew that moving into the boat would create distractions and therefore lost time. Even had to work last weekend during FABULOUS sailing weather, DAMN!

But I just finished the big crunch, so Jet and I (he has been staying in the hotel room with me) will be moving to the boat tomorrow night.

Actually Jet is going back home, because he's got an infection on his (deleted for family web site). But I'll be on the boat tomorrow, and he'll be back next week I hope.

And speaking of emissions...it takes some powerful chili to win against a dog in that department... :-)

Thanks to everyone for their comments, it was very helpful to this novice.

Here is an interesting side effect of moving to the boat. Apparently my decision to do so captures the fancy (or the incredulity) of non-boaters, and the story of me doing it has spread throughout the large organization where I am working. The benefit to me is that I am getting introduced to every sailor or might-wanna-be-a-sailor in the place. Today a guy dropped by my office from another building, a whole different division, and introduced himself with "are you the guy that is living on his boat?". Nice to meet folks that way...but how in the world he ever heard about me I cannot fathom...

Fair winds,
