Thanks, Oz. I spent this morning in Pit****er looking over a 42' steel
ketch. Lovely day for being on the water. We'll see how negotiable the
price is when I get back :-) Might want to pick your brains about Ozi
Explorer in a couple months, too. Funnily enough I have all the
electronic charts for the entire east coast of Australia and (of much
less use for a sailboat...) the Antarctic. Pity I can't legally use
them :-(

Take care and I hope you get some decent sailing in over spring. Much
as I dislike living in Sydney full-time, spring & autumn are pretty
nice and visiting here is good. Fish & chips on Newport beach while
looking at the beach bunnies in their bikinis - memories for when all I
have to look at are people on the ice in freezer suits. Mind you some
of the women in theremals are well worth a second look, but that's for
another day.

Ciao.

Not that it matters a lot. Another 5 days and I'm outa here for a
couple months at sea. You've managed a handful of days daysailing and
one overnighter the entire season. Whooppeee-do, how wonderfully
exciting and thrilling for everyone who's reluctantly followed your
breathless self-promotion of your wife's skills in navigating her boat
while you hang around like a spare prick at a wedding and take photos
so as to have an excuse for not actually doing anything. Except bounce
off the odd well-marked rock, of course. No wonder your wife does all
the nav nowadays - didn't take her long to figure it out, one must give
her credit for that. She doesn't want her boat damaged or sunk just
because your reach exceeds your grasp.

See ya, Bob. I'm off to places you'll never see except on Discovery
Channel.

The problem with your weak theory, is that I dish out far more than I
take. I
catch these fish, batter them up and fry em, only to send back most of the
portions for fun later on.
I can do this with ANY type of post, honest or otherwise. Look at Mooron?
Is
THIS man possibly a sailor to take such a beating and swim back for more?
And
what of Donal? Could he ever become a man, let alone a daysailor? I've
reduced
Mooron to lies, Scotty to empty quips and you, Neal, made into a desperate
animal, a pitiful bottom feeder seeking whatever morsels of attention I
leave
you.
I rule alt.sailing.asa. And I sail, more than most here. And there are
young
pretty women on my boat who also sail. And my pretty wife can navigate.
And my
vessel is fine and cost me less than most.
I am god here.
I am god here.
I am god here.
