Now go easy on him... we wouldn't want him to pop a gasket.

Capt. JG said "You need to get past the anchor thing. It's not going
to help you much."


You've been nothing but snooty to me today. What's wrong? Get up on
the wrong side of the bed? :-)
But, I forgive you. No, not for your silly statement about the *anchor
thing*. BTW it's called *kedging*.
So you're wrong about using anchors for kedging off docks and so forth.
Maybe you should click this link:

As you can see captain, it's a time honored tradition. How do you
think they got boats off docks before
motors were invented? Did they wait until the wind was right? Maybe you
should Google "kedging". You'll
see how it's valuable to know about it.
Anchors aren't just for anchoring.

Refrain from any attempt to enlighten an idiot. It's like trying to teach
a
pig to sing.... you'll never suceed and it just frustrates the pig.
