Neal,
Even the ancient mariners used to come home....to land....get off your high
horse. You don't sail any more than the rest of us do. Quite frankly, after
having viewed the liveaboards in Fort Myers area, I can live without that
type of "sailing". You want to live in that kind of squalor, be my guest.
I imagine Joe lives a great deal better than you do, as does Haggie. They
have decent boats with some size to them. You are no better than a sardine
in a can. It;s amazing your cat doesn't mistake you and serve you up for
dinner with some mustard.

Poor Katysails.
Rationalizing your poor choice of a place to live when it comes
to sailing fools nobody here who knows what sailing really is.
That means two or three of us. Myself, Joe and Michael.
The remainder think in a similar vein to you. Evade the truth.
Make up excuses. Let your life revolve around a house ashore.
Even Lady Pilot whom many of you deride has realistic dreams
of cruising while you sorry lot only pretend to wish to sail
extensively because pretend is all you can do with your
lack of gumption and nerve to leave the land behind and
become a real sailor.

High and dry is a better thing...even if it was warm and dry enough to
sail
Lake Michigan does strange things in the winter time....like 20 ft waves
with very short intervals...the kind that take out the big
lakers...having
spoken with people all over, I've found that even when you live in better
climes there are still reasons why you can't sail: hurricanes,
interminate
rain, doldrums, excessive hear, etc. We all suffer some malady from
weather...my philosophy has become more enjoy every moment when the
moment
is upon you rather than bemoaning. Especially since Mr Sails keeps
looking
at his birthplace for our retirement rather than south (he was born in
Marquette, Mi, about 5 miles from the artic circle...that's a joke...)

Katy,
I think Neal's name was simply "Chiguita" but it was in reference to
the
Banana song.
Now he is hedging on Mr Everything Right because of time. Not that he
neglected proper use.
I also, Checked his story about the Keel from his own "Web Site"
Along
with the pictures, Some of his asinine comments.
His rebuttals really don't have a real Neal way about them, So be it,
they do make interesting comments
How's it feel being high and dry ? I haven't been that way in
thirty-five years.
Luck of the draw on work transfer!
Guess I can't give you the;"I'll drink to that!" You know better but
I'm a happy old man out here.
