In your latest post re hullspeed, you use the term Troller
frequently. Far as you know, is Troller synonymous to Trawler? I an a
wee bit confused and Webster's and other dictionaries were of no help
other than telling me that a 'Troll" is a mythical creature that
lives in mountains and under bridges and occasionally causes mischief
to travelers unless placated with gifts ;-)

Other than that, I really like your article on hullspeed. Would like
to ask your permission to use all or some of it in a future
newsletter for our yacht club.

Read 'The Troller Yacht Book: A Powerboater's Guide to Crossing Oceans'
rather than Webster's for enlightenment:
