So you went for a dip in the briny, Jib? Tell more.

I met one mad Yank who went swimming four times in his career. The last ditching left him with badly banged-up legs. Apparently it was an Islander, which you might think would be OK. Not so; the nose section buckled as the fixed nosegear dug in and squashed him a bit.
