Wow! Thanks a heap Sam. I'll post a message and let you know how it works out.

BTW, Charles:

I also know the song you were looking for - I've had a few sailing trips where I could share the sentiments of that sailor and loved to sing the song to pass the time. I also couldn't understand the lyrics of that portion of the song, but always sang it as: And all went well by the turning light

Thanks for the encouragement though.

Fair winds and following seas, Kathleen
