A skiff and a stink boat. And it tells the world that sailors are the nice guys.  Shame its advertising a Toyota Avensis.

I think it would be better if he drove through the puddle at the end and rather than it saying 'The all new Avensis a higher standard' it should say 'The all new Avensis don't f**k with us!' Would definately sell more cars. |

Ah you missed the point. There is more respect to the person who has the power to do something, in this expamle of giving the old boy a drenching, but chooses not to. Pesonally though, I would go with the drenching and the great feeling of revenge! |

Would 49er (or any dinghy sailor) really care about getting a bit wet? The bigger deal would be getting knocked off the plane.... |
