At least they *found* the Stream.

bart, you are a fool. dougie takes a single experience in 8 knots of wind
on a
lake in a hunter 19 and generalizes it to include rounding the Horn in the
dead
of winter. dougie has two weeks experience repeated again and again and
again
for as long as he has seen water. He wouldn't know the Great Salt Pond
from
the Great Salt Lake. but he reads a little, and hasn't yet noticed that
there
are three books written about sailing, each one published under at least
100
titles by at least 100 authors.

what's more dougies reading comprehension is so low he to this day can't
spot
poorly written fiction on lonny's part from a genuine account on anyone
else's
part. next week dougie will be telling newbies that 45 knots winds
against the
Stream will produce just 15 meter (nice touch, that use of the word meter,
even
better had it been spelled metre) waves and that one can make 35 miles to
the
good in 6 hours under such conditions (*you* did notice the distance and
time
in lonny's manuscript, didn't you bart?)

Doug has credibility and you have none.

doubie, I did St thomas to nyc last year, as well as Ft Lauderdale to
Charleston, as well as nyc to oriental. I would still be out there
except
I
had to return to deal with a business issue.

Seems to me that in a short time, on our trawler, my wife & I have
been a
lot further, seen and done a lot more than you, Bubbles, and Jaxxie,
ever
have in all your lives.
