Default Sailing

Hey Scotty, looks like the perfect and relaxing trip.

Just because the skipper of another vessel is an arse.. is no need to
call his passengers " Skank"...... just not nice...and in that case not
true.

The new sail looks great, but why do sail makers not take in account
the bow rails and let a sail bend around the rail is beyone me, seems
like that would screw up the effiency of the sail and cause chaffing.

You boat looks like it's in tip top condition, I'm glad you got her
back in the water.

Went sailing this week, no need to kedge off the dock as my
Yanmar aux. started and ran fine. The wind was great , no
need to sail backwards. No need to argue ColRegs with anyone
as it was mostly other sailboats out. Didn't have to hear
any whining about handles left in the winch or the main is
sheeted in 2 inches too much. No rust to chip and no broken
bones.

No need for any skinny flat chested skanks onboard to ruin
scenery like this;

No need to ''screen'' any dumb Hollywood movies for I could
lay in my bunk and look at the Milky Way at night.
No need to worry about how much scope to use, as there was
only one other sailboat in the anchorage;

Just four straight days of great sailing, and I don't mean 1
hour daysails and returning to the slip each day.

Got to try out the new Genny that I made;
