Bob. you cannot get off the hook that easily. Once again, here are *your*
words.

"Winds were challenging
to say the least, blowing 20-25 and gusting well above 30 to perhaps 35.


What hook is that, Donal!!!?? I already said I stand by that comment!


Well, try to keep the higher wind speeds out of your posts. You are
constantly talking about winds 25-30 kts, when the wind was 20-25 kts.

As I've said before, most sailors of boats like ours, would find 20-25
kts -along with the attendant 30kt gusts- to be good sailing. Your original
post sounded like you were a bit frightened by an F5 wind. You sounded as
if you were seeking respect for the courage that you displayed by going out.

It really doesn't matter how much you wriggle. You may try to pretend that
everybody misinterpreted the nervousness that was so evident in your
original post. Wimp!
