Fog's just lifting. Throw off your bow-line, throw off your stern. Blow your
airhorn and throw a wave to the lighthouse keeper's kid on Thatcher Island...
This is the abridged and edited version from the trailer. Please post the whole
thing if you know it.
Thanks.

Here you go. :-) This is from a copy of the script that I have. There isn't
a date on it, so they could have updated it by the time they shot the film. I
did notice that they left some things out of the movie that they showed in the
trailers (like the "can't be good unless you love it" part), but I just put in
the full text from the script.

Billy: But you've 'got it'. I've seen 'em come and go -- the day I laid eyes
on you, I said to myself, she's going to be a good one. (pause) And you can't
be good unless you love it.
Linda: I don't 'love' it.
Billy: Oh yes, you do. WE do...The fog's just lifting, you throw off your
bowline, throw off your stern, you move out the South Channel, past Rocky Neck
and Tenpound Island, past Niles Pond -- where I skated as a kid -- on to Black
Bess Point, blow your airhorn and throw a wave to the lighthouse keeper's kid
on Thatcher Island -- then the birds arrive -- Blackbacks and Herring Gulls,
Big Dump Ducks and Green-Legged Coots. The sun hits you, you head north and
open up to twelve -- steaming now -- the guys are busy and you're in charge.
And y' know what? You're a godDAM swordboat captain and is there anything
better in the world?
