"We've taken some precautions, if it does turn out to be trouble. And they'd be hardpressed to catch the Grey, even if our wind doesna hold as well as it is now." That was some pride in the schooner talking. It was also something of a fact -- the Lady Grey had a slim, narrow body with a sharp prow and a deep enough draft for stability. And that wasn't counting the massive fore-and-aft rigged sails that flew aloft.
