[quote=tnell]What difference does it really make? A good way to run off newcomers to any sport is to insist on knowing certain jargon which really makes no difference. For example, I once went into a bike shop to look for a new "seat". The sales gal says, "you mean a saddle?". Yeah whatever, she came across as a real snob. Now some nautical/sailing terms are important to know, but that's not one of them.[/quote]
