So, a 38' Cabo Rico is not a sailboat? BS.

OK, so give me a break. I should have said we are talking about
a "motor sailer" with prop centered . . ." Big deal. Try addressing
the point of the post and not some lame attempt at semantics. You
know damned well what I mean. Any so called sailboat with a big
diesel inside with transmission, shaft big propeller in an aperture
in front of the keel is really just a motor boat with sails. Calling it
even a motor sailer is being lenient.


Shall we continue to reply or would you rather continue this discussion
on your own, single handed, pig headed, opinionated in error as you live
G or should we let you work both sides of the discussion as we,truly,
cover Lady Sailor's problem of handling her (and Mike's) newly acquired
boat in reverse? It is no need for any of us to reply to you until you
figure out just what the hell you really want to say.


Then why are you bothering to reply is there is not point?
Is it because you are as dumb as Jeff and Shen44 and ontmbrd
when it comes to sailing a real sailboat?
