So expect some of the NG spammers & dealer lackies will run a spirited

This is about the third unprovoked attack this week,

What set you off, again, Karen Smith?

Your endless OT political posts!!!


Do you have any remarks that might help this party, or is merely using his
misfortune as an opportunity to lash out at
other people a sufficient reason for your post?

I'm encouraging this person to stick with it.

The very good news is that there was no loss of life. To split a very tiny
hair, the boat capsized, rather than sank, but that's no less a disaster.

If you actually knew anything about boats of that type, you'd know they
nearly always roll over once there's some real water aboard. I guess you
think if you can spin it to a capsize on a dangerous bar you can spam
the dealer's post sinking behaviour away??? Nice try though.

The Columbia Bar is one of the most treacherous places to take a small boat on
the west coast. Conditions there can get so severe, that the CG runs a
"surfman" school at the location. In surfman school, trainees are taught to
broach 40-foot patrol boats until they roll. All aboard are strapped in place,
and can be under water for several seconds before the self-righting design
turns un-turtle.

Yeah yeah you blokes are all the same, all so brave, give it up Chuck
if it was rough then it was rough but it sank!!!! It didn't seem rough
in the rescue pics.


Lots of people get in trouble there with inadequate or unseaworthy vessels or
inexperienced seamanship. Sometimes people with adequate skill and proper boats
will simply encounter some terrible luck. If the boat in question were
manufactured with the defect noted in the complaint, then its a miracle it
didn't sink sometime during the first decade.

The owner bought it comparatively recently from one of your mates, when
he got into trouble for whatever reason(s) your dealers just dumped him,
that's the complaint & good on him for telling us about it.
