You still haven't offered any proof that 1. You've ever been offshore 2.


What diff does it make if he's offshore or not. As far as I know, NO ONE here
has done any serious sailing-crossed oceans and such. Unless you have video of
your voyage, you can't prove a thing either. Still, many of the issues we
debate here can be discussed, even by an armchair sailor. I see no reason to
become nasty over an opinion, just because it fails to match your own.
Most of us are coastal sailors and some are on lakes. The idea that conditions
can't get bad on the LI sound or on lakes or anywhere is plain silly.
