BTW, care to quantify your earlier position that one *must* have a
$500,000 Nordhavn or better to safely and comfortably cruise Alaska to
the Cortez and back? We'd really like to see you detail why vessels
selling for under $200,000 cannot accomplish that task. And finally, do
you think such a voyage is better handled by power or sail?

You lack the knowledge and physical agility to sail, and you
probably can't afford the type of vessel you truly belong on- a
passenger liner. When a guy from East Outhouse, KS, (with a
boating resume that consists primarily of making up stories about
trailering a 22-foot Bayliner to the Gulf of California and riding out
hurricanes), says he wants to go cruising offshore no responsible
person is going to encourage him to do so. You might consider flying
all around the world and taking some Carnival or NCL cruises. They even
have special venues for seniors. Those monster floating hotels are
large enough that even an aquaphobic might feel comfortable...

Appreciate this demonstration of your knowledge on the subject. It does
tend to reinforce the points some have been noting about you.

The points I just noted about you include:

When the discussion appears to be going against you, you change the
header and hijack the thread to personal attack.

That's fine.

Why did I know you were unprepared to discuss the boat questions above?
Do you suspect it's because I KNOW your full of it? You've been dancing
around this test for a couple weeks now. Don't you think it's about time
you belly up to the bar?
