Default light air

No, that's not what a sailor does. You get out there, hoist the sails
and practice light air with whatever comes.




That would be true if you did not live on the water, I understand your
severe limitations. You lubbers should take full advantage of the
restricted access you have to the water. You need to sit in a
breathless still and waddle yer fat arses back and forth the generate
forward moment. Flap yer flabby arms too, thatta help. Tie a string on
yer kid and have him pull you, whatever.....

I can afford to pick and choose when to sail.

The flat water rarely lasts
and you get valuable lessons on how to make the hull go in all
conditions.


Yeah like getting back in outta the heat.

Of course Joe has a motorsailor, so these fine points are lost on him
and his ultra heavy powersailor. Just turn the key, Joe. It's what you
do best.


Indeed, If Im cruising somewhere that's exactly what I will do, unless
I perfer to drift fish, swim, or have an extreme need to conserve fuel.
Move to the winds and harness them.

To bad your day sailor is not a real Sailors boat and devoid of all
engines. Face it bubbles you have an underpowered motor sailor, with
heavy AC's that are usless underway. At least it's not as pathetic as
Capt. Neal with his stick on egg beater. Get a clue bonehead.

Capt Joe... to you
