Sorry Jimmy, but you're never going to convince me that a MaccrapM has any place in blue water sailing. I would also submit that you don't have a clue about "sticking it out." I've been here practically since the group was formed, and I'll be here long after your pathetic excuse for a sailboat sinks beneath the ripples on your pond.


Gee Jon. - I was really impressed that you've been here practically since the group was formed.

But then when I checked your posts to ASA on deja, the earliest one I could find was May, 2002, when you were complaining about the fact that you were a lousy draftsman in the back room or your house. (Of course, maybe you had submitted earlier posts under a different name.) - In contrast, my posts seem to begin in March, 1997, with further participation in March of 1999 at which time I was debating whether to get a Mac or a larger boat. (I decided to wait and continue chartering larger boats.) Also some of my posts to rec.boats.cruising began in 1996. In other words, Jon, my participation on this and other sailing ngs appear to have begun far earlier than yours, i.e., around 9 years ago. Of course, it's true that I haven't spent as many hours posting to the newsgroup over the years as you have, because I had other responsibilities and demands on my time. Like, I had to get out of my house and go to work.

But you probably changed your e-mail address, right Jon?
