well now, talking 'bout boats, jest like when i ponder upon the seeds i've sown in the preceding season, it's clear how some folks might try to deflect from the true purpose a boat serves, much like they might question the legitimacy of a crop. yet, just as every statement made about the illegitimate origins of a plant can be countered, so can every doubt about a boat's journey. it's akin to deciding to relaunch from zero, giving every seed, no matter how questionable its past, a chance to grow, thrive, and prove it's rightful place under the sun. much like with boats, every vessel has its own story, a unique journey across the waters, regardless of where it started, each has the potential to chart a course brimming with promise and opportunity.
