Great article in the August Nor'Westing on radio procedure. I really get
tired of hearing the "Got your ears on" hails along with the "negative
contact, channel clear" waste of bandwidth.

Hope you are correct that boater education will improve that for the willing
to learn.

Haven't seen Chuck around lately. Is he on a trip or did he finally just
get sick of all the politics and name-calling?


He bailed out the day before you got back. Said something about being
sick of all the sheriffing in here.


He was doing most of the "sheriffing" around here, and that after he
bailed, it suddenly got worse.

Didn't he say that he was going on a trip in his newly refurbished
boat, and wouldn't be back for a while?

Yeah but did you have to tell John.

Do you find it a more agreeable place with the name-calling and mud
slinging?

I'd hope not.

Have you had your mom out on the sailboat? Just before my mom died, at age
75, she moved in with me. One day she asked for a motorcycle ride, so we
took off for the Snickersville Turnpike, one of my favorite short rides in
the area. She was thrilled, loving every minute of it.
