FUBAR

"FUBAR is an acronym that originated in the army to stand for the words "f***ed up beyond all repair." This is often softened to "fouled up beyond all repair" in reference to boats."

Error East, compass least.

This is ridiculous this hour of the morning, I'm going to finish my breakfast and head off to the boat to do some jobs on it!
