Just looked at a 32' old full keel boat. I really liked the boat, it

Then I got to thinking ???? Where would I put my dingy when I go off
cruising. I would think that it would be in the way on deck.


Many old boats are indeed dingy. A little paint and elbow grease does
wonders, but once you've finished fitting her out she won't any longer be
dingy, so you won't have to worry.

Now where to stow the dingHy is an entirely different issue.



Mr. Perretta,

A man asked for help.

You didn't have to, but you responded.

However, instead of offering a helpful response, you smugly mocked a spelling
error.

You could have responded to his question and then reminded him of the
accurate spelling of the word 'dinghy', if his common spelling error really
bothered you, but you chose not to.

You chose to respond to his post but chose NOT to be helpful.

You chose, instead, to be spiteful.

I can only speculate as to what emotional or psychological problems drive
someone to this type of behavior.

You have my sympathy, but I won't waste time reading anything else you post.
