I can name all 7 masts on a seven-masted schooner:

Fore, Main, Mizzen, Jigger, Driver, Pusher, Spanker.

I told my wife--she didn't find me any more sexy. Actually, she thought I was suggesting S&M or something.

I also know a jib from a jibe. Chicks don't care.

What they saw in the guy in the movie (other than the fact that the character was played by Kevin Costner) is a young, tormented guy who is still frank and honest. Somewhat of a fixer-upper. My wife fooled me into watching it with her--I was disappointed to find that a movie about sailing and boatbuilding was really a big mushy love story. At least his boat didn't sink in the end.

Lee's probably right.
