If Dave M. were still in the market for a boat, I came across
something
that would have appealed to him 6 or 7 years ago when he was in
Seattle
doing some shopping.

I went up to LaConner today to see if I could find an interesting
boat
for the NW Classics column of our magazine, and I hit paydirt.
This
is
a one-off world cruiser, full displacement hull, 30 tons of lead
ballast, no windows below the main deck, etc etc etc.(The boat
itself
isn't truly a classic, but the design and concept most certainly
is)
I
took a bunch of photos and notes to build an article around, but
here's
a link to the broker's web site where one could get a look at the
boat.

Thanks for the link, Chuck. Nice boat and it seems reasonably
priced
if
it's in decent condition. It looks as though it was well taken
care
of.

And, it prompted only five (so far) derogatory comments against
Skipper,
not counting the original post, of course.


The original post was not supposed to be a derogatory comment. I
remarked, honestly, that this was the sort of boat that Skipper
had,
(at one time at least), been interested in acquiring. I fail to see
how
that was a derogatory comment- and beyond the fact that he was once
shopping for a boat like that (something he has freely attested to
here) there wasn't even a single personal statement.

I do wish he'd elaborate on his feelings that this boat wouldn't be
adequate for coastal cruising from AK to MEX, with occasional
(possible) diversions to HI. Aside from marginal range (easily
corected), I fail to see why this wouldn't be a darn good boat for
the
purpose.
It *is* strange how some folks will use *any* post as an excuse to
make
personal attacks. If I lived where you do, I'd love to have a boat
like
that. I think it's beautiful.

Skipper is a Jew-hating, black-hating turd who works overtime at
being
obnoxious. Perhaps that kind of hatred is ok with you.

Harry, do you really think your constant name-calling affects our
opinion
of anyone besides you?

Skipper is a racist pig. There are many posts of his in the archives
that
demonstrate he hates Jews and blacks. That's enough for me not to want
to
give him the benefit of anything.

Perhaps you are comfy with racist slimeballs. I am not.

You hate Republicans and other non-Democrats. What's the difference hate
is
hate.

He hates himself as well
