Out of curiousity, do you have anything useful to say here? or are all
your posts simply trying to tear some one else down?


People with even a modicum of intelligence would not have to ask. . .

Should someone here, besides myself, happen to post something intelligent
about cruising in boats, I'd be among the first to give them credit.

Look around and count the actual cruising content. There ain't much of it to
be seen.

How to make a kill file, sewage dumping, baby talk, outboard motor repair,
sob stories about the infirm, wi-fi, Penetrol, vee-belts, more sewage, gratuitous
worship of sewage info purveyors, ad nauseum!

Where's the cruising content? Why don't some of you post something about
trips to the Bahamas, or up and down the Intracoastal, or how to clear into
and out of various countries, or dangerous stretches of water, or good
places to anchor, marinas that are worth the exhorbitant rates they
charge transients these days, or ridiculous laws that impinge upon one's
navigation rights, or nice empty beaches, or good fishing spots, or good
places to get drinking water, or bad places to land a dinghy or good
places to re-provision, or uncharted shallows and shoals, or any number
of other things related to to cruising.

Instead, what we have here is a bunch of stay-at-home, armchair
wannabes who attempt to 'cruise' a newsgroup.
