Let's see how many night sails you do with Thomas on board.


Why, will he be afraid of the dark like you???

I've done
a dozen or so night passages of over 100 miles

I'm sure Capt. Neal will send you the Joshua Slocum award!

And since you've been more than a few miles from shore, you have no
right to comment on any aspect of cruising.

Oh. So if I cruise 100 miles within a few miles of shore...uh....it's
not cruising? Ok!

Maybe, just maybe, you can get
someone to believe you took your own boat through Hell Gate once.

Yup, with all of my boats and even the "wrong way" a few years ago to
return from the worst fireworks ever.

And I could care less what you care.

Then why answer EVERY post? You seem very wound up about what I think
of your PDQ. I guess if you had some self confidence you could move on.

You claimed that "sailing without
A/C would be horrific" and you don't even have a genset!

Never said that. Prove it with a link. Like you I refered to a specific
time period (it's August here) where it been so hot and still, that
most folks don't even both with their boats. You used the word
"oppressive." With A/C at the slip at least I can spend some time
aboard. And of course we're getting a genset, Jeff...so take it easy,
bub!

In 10 years of sailing you're
still talking about maybe doing a few overnights. Why do you even
bother owning a boat?

Funny. My friend owns a J30 and he rarely cruises anywhere. He just
sails and sails locally because he loves it. I guess he's a bad sailor
too! Good call, Jeff. Sorry everyone isn't playing with their toys to
suit you. Then again our toys are actually entertaining to use!

But haven't you noticed, they all
agree with me!

Jeff, snap out of it. I you said the earth was flat and I said it was
round, they'd still side with you. Or haven't you noticed? The fact
that I can take ALL of you on and still beat you with your own oars is
why this is so much fun. And you STILL manage to be wrong 90% of the
time!
