Then there's you (unfortunately).

But to be stuck on a boat that can NEVER cruise without the sound of
the motor churning away, spewing filth into the air and water? No
thanks! That's not what it's all about, Doug.

Agreed. Fortunately, I have the mechanical skills to keep
our boat quiet & clean. Maybe someday you will learn.



In any case, this is alt.SAILING.asa and you're a powerboat 100% now.

Not really. And if SAILING is the key to entry then why are
you here, Bubbles?

Others are polite about it, but absolutley no one truly believes the BS
about why you dropped the dream of a cruising sailboat.

What makes you think I "dreamed" of a cruising sailboat? It
has been more than "a dream" for several decades now.

.... Ever hear of a
Nauticat or any of the other motorsailors out there?

Yes. Your point?



Keep dreaming, Doug.

Some dream, others do.

.... But it does sound like even you have given up on
what you truly want.


Not at all, Bubbles, not at all.
