I bought new genoa cars almost a year ago but didn't get around to attempting to install them until late summer. Couldn't find them! I searched the house, storage containers, boat, and cars half a dozen times. Resigned to spending another chunk of money, I decided to buy another set this winter. I was rummaging around looking for packaging tape to ship something a couple of days ago and stumbled onto the genoa cars. Minor events can certainly improve the day. Now, if I could just fink the oarlocks for the inflatable...

Hm... sound like early signs of the Alzheimer disease or simply the problem of a big house

Hint: I've recently collected all that boat spare parts into one or two big boxes so I have them in one place

My garage looses everything, but luckily my basement is a good retriever. I have tried for years to organize my boat gear, and yet I still find missing pieces long after I needed them and lose just purchased gear only to find it right after the replacement has been installed! That is another reason B.O.A.T means what it does.
