Default Get Home Power

What kind of "Get Home Power" would someone put in a 36' boat?


Believe I'd opt for the traditional auxiliary in a sailboat. Harry
claimed to have a dedicated wing engine in that fab 36-footer, not a
mechanical hookup to the generator. I simply didn't believe Harry's
story. Further, It's my thought that there are better options than going
wing engine for the type of boat Harry claimed to own...and
particularly, for the type of boating he claims to do.


The very concept of a landlocker like you pretending to have any actual
expertise whatsoever about sal****er boats transcends absurd.


It's your "thought there are better systems..." coming from an old
cripple like you who lives in Derby, Kansas, and knows next to nothing
about boats that make anyone who does know about boats giggle at your
ignorance.


Encountered any sudden-onset Tostitos lately with 30-foot waves crashing
against the bow of your Bayliner with the strap-on tanks? My guess is
the only Mexican waters you see are from the cooler at your local Taco Bell.


Man, how Krause bobs and weaves as he avoids this direct boating related
discussion with Skipper. Perhaps he's had his tootsies burned once too
often. Wish he did know a thing or two about 'get homes'. It would have
been interesting...and revealing.
