It was my text book in a dynamics grauate course, and I really found a hard time understanding the topics. To call this calendar merely gorgeous would be to damn with faint praise ! Every month is a Jimmy Buffet fantasy brought to life except maybe the one where it's raining but then what better place to be on a rainy day than a cozy cabin in a snug harbor.Ferenc Mate shows once again that he is a true Renaissance man with a rare talent as photographer, writer, ship builder, wine maker and god knows what else, but me thinks before all that he was a sailor..
