Gilligan is not the Nav. The Nav is a for real New Zea lander with a
real name and a real job...he left because he was sick of ASA and the
criticism and backciting....

He was one of the few shreds of sanity this group ever had.

Except when he got on a rant about how all Americans are militaristic
boors; and how everybody else was a much worse sailor than him, with a
much worse boat than his.

Plus he welshed on a bet with me, personally I think that is why he left
this group.

I believe the Navigator is a much better man than you describe.

His rants were about the US Government, not the American people (they are
NOT the same).

He does have a good boat and is a good sailor.

Everyone has their limits, he reached his. Personally I think we would all
be better off if he returned.
