he should have admitted he's a lazy slob in the beginning, now he's just
digging his hole deeper and deeper.

You had two on the return? Looks like you've almost lost one in the pic.

DON'T DO IT AGAIN! YOU MIGHT DIE (now there's a thought) OR
INJURE SOMEONE ELSE. Can you imagine what would happen if a
fender ran into a lesser boat than a C&C 32????

Yes! Look at the above pic! Leaving Port Jeff and sailing for the
Thimbles, we
NEVER removed two of the fenders. They remained on deck for 5 or 6
hours.
Several times we were passing by other boats who frantically gestured to
us
about our death defying leap of fender faith, yet we still sailed onward
in
building winds.
A low flying plane may have dipped his wings at us in a futile attempt
to
alert
us to our desperate dangererous lubberly act! We weren't just sailing on
the
edge, tempting fate; we dared the devil himself to take us on, and STILL
the
fenders remained on deck!
Then, sailing home the next day, we stowed the fenders. It was payback
for
our
death defying stunt, an appeasment to Neptune. We know our place.
Will we do it again? Perhaps. If a day, dark and weary, touches our
souls
we
may again throw sense and safety to our whims of daring do!
