  1. Kia Ora James. So I googled ["Looking for Trouble" "James Burwick"] and got 5 hits, one a well known temperance evangelist from 1896 which I'm guessing is not you. I'd love to know how you learned to sail an Open 40 and how much one costs? Here's my sailing story. I took the wrong turn I think going for solid traditional design. But now I'm rethinking. https://kmccready.wordpress.com/2014/06/30/sailing/
