66th Sydney to Hobart yacht race

The 1998 Sydney to Hobart Yacht Race was marred by tragedy when, during an exceptionally strong storm (which had similar strength winds to a lower-category hurricane), five boats sank and six people died. Of the 115 boats that started, only 44 made it to Hobart. As a result, the crew eligibility rules were tightened, requiring a higher minimum age and experience.

Paddy and Seamus in a pickup truck drove to the lumberyard. Paddy walked in to the office and said, “We need some four-by-twos.”

The clerk said, “You mean two-by-fours, don’t you?”

Paddy said, “I’ll go check,” and went back to the truck. He returned a minute later and said, “Yeah, I meant two-by-fours.”

“All right. How long do you need them?”

Paddy paused for a minute and said, “I’d better go check.”

After a while, Paddy returned to the office and said, “A long time. We’re gonna build a house.”
