Man, I'm a three master at heart but I do appreciate the lines of those beauties. Fore and aft never did much for me but that brig...she's a ketch (hehe) for any man.
I like the fore and aft rigs because I know how to sail them. I'm a total hound for going to weather.
When I sailed on Pilgrim, I had the foredeck division; we had the jibs and staysails. I know jibs, I like jibs, I can handle jibs. Those square sails are totally unique. The yard trim and commands, going up into a tack, and trimming through a tack are so totally bass aackwards, woof! They wouldn't let me near a mast, and rightfully. Even came up with some commands for the foredeck; If I was to holler 'trim guys', and the mast people heard it, all hell would break loose. So it was weather and leeward jib sheet and jib guy, and all the rest of the volunteer sailors were told "do not listen to that fellow", pointing at me. So that's my experience on a square rigger.
I like the fore and aft rigs because I know how to sail them. And Pilgrim went to weather like a pig to a washtub.

Making a Curried Crab Bisque, with a peanut/cilantro pesto bruschetta as a side tasty.
Heat and deglaze:
2 Tbs olive oil
½ cup Vidalia onion
½ cup Gala apple
1 tsp minced jalapeno
1 tsp minced garlic
1 ½ tsp Thai curry paste
1 cup broth
4oz Coco Lopez
1 Tbs flour
Add:
8-10oz real crabmeat (blue crab is tastiest in a sauce like this)
Finish and garnish:
¼ cup chopped scallions
3 Tbs chopped cilantro
2 tsp lime juice
The real Louisiana crab afficinados say just barely cook the crab separate, and put it in a big bowl and pour the bisque broth over it, and then garnish with the greens and lime juice. I am very partial to Mexican sweet limes, me'self. If ya want it less hot, maybe substitute 1 1/2 tsp minced poblanos for the jalapenos and cut back the Thai curry paste to 1 tsp.
Enjoy.
[ed] oh, this is pretty flavorful, so needs a nice red like a serious Tuscan. A good Nebbiolo or Sangiovese works like a champ. Actually an old vine Zinfandel from upper Napa or Sonoma is the perfect accompaniment. Some might find a meaty Pinot, or a light Rhone does the trick.

Yummy indeed. I add calories just thinking about this stuff. Ok, coulda done a Honey-Lemon Brocolini, or an Almond-Orange Linguine, or Yellow Rice and Peas, but went with the Bruschetta.
In a processor, pulse:
1 cup cilantro (stems are cool)
1/3 cup peanuts (ya know, pine nuts or cashews are just as good. And hazelnuts are nicely different)
1/4 cup chopped scallions
3 Tsb olive oil
2 Tsb lime juice
1 tsp jalapenos (ok, poblanos, anaheims, but roast them first)
1 tsp chopped garlic
Spread over lightly toasted thick slices of an Italian baguette. Might want to have a plate of olive oil and balsamic vinegar nearby to do some dipping.
Ciao. John

Inane drivel. [:D]
Tried inane drivel once; almost as bad as haggis. Maybe I didn't boil the juvenile snot far enough away. Woof!! worse than overboiled okra.
[ed] coudn't find anything it went with except rotten fish. Could be good cat food.

I think inane drivel goes very well with fake sphincters, personally. Well...erm...at least so I heard.
