Danny,
Unfortunatly I am periously close to Poopie (love the spelling.) Last
year I bought a bunch of land in Nova Scotia, a 20 year old 33' custom
steel cutter, and moved one to the other. Never sailed before but lots
of time on stink pots. Anyway I got there, after about a week. A
little over 400 miles, on the chart.
I think you are right that he is trolling for amusement. But it IS
amusing. Not only his posts but the dead serious answers intermixed
with the others who have "outed" him.
And, you gotta admit, he must have the hide of a rhino. Or is it
brain. Either way, for now he does make me laugh, if only at myself.

Howard:
You and I are tracking. It is indeed amusing and the answers have been
informative. It's a good group.
How's the sailing in NS in the winter? My brother in-law lives in
Portland, Maine. The combination of the ridiculous fog and the rocky
shore make the case for your steel hull.

I am enjoying the banter. I find it enlightening that folks can
absolutely confidently say things that are so wrong. I wonder if they are
embarrassed when caught or if it is always a troll.

I have to admit, Poopie is far and away the best troll I've seen. If he is a
troll.
If he's serious, he needs to take up something safer like Motocross. Some of
the advice has been awful and ill informed. But there are some gems. When
I'm flummoxed, I ask the older salts in my club because I can see the
position of their tongue when they answer.
Poopie asks lamo questions in a way that stimulates good dialog. As Howard
pointed out, Poopie has the hide of a Rhino! He comes back for more and with
more. Most trolls just sling meaningless threats, insults and non sense.
I've learned a few things reading the serious replies.
I think he is genuinely soliciting advice.
