Assuming the boat can't sink (which I seriously doubt - given the
pounding it would endure, it would likely break up),

Is there any proof that if I go after it with a sawsall it'll remain intact?
No.

it would be dismasted for sure.

Any evidence or proof to support that assertion Capt?.... No?



Like I said, you know next to nothing about boats. That is certainly my
assertion, and the proof is what you bought and then claim it's going to do
fine offshore in storm conditions.


Don't believe I said that, Ganz. - Could you please point out the
particular note in which I said it would "do fine offshore in storm
conditions?" What I said was that you have provided no evidence that it
would break up and sink.



Then, (not that sailing would have ever been an option), your only chance
for survival would be below decks, while the boat rolled over and over
and over, perhaps even pitchpolling from time to time.


Any evidence or proof to back up that particular assertion Capt? ....No?



See other thread parts. This is boring.


In other words, you have no answer?


It would be like being in

a washing machine with heavy and sharp objects. You'd find yourself in a
non-habitable environment of flying hazards including yourself that would
break your bones into mush.


LOL.



Not so funny if you happen to be there.


In desperation to escape, you would vacate the

premises, and then either be thrown off the boat by the wave action or
you would remove yourself from the boat deliberately.



That's fascinating piece of fiction Capt. - Have you considered writing a
novel?



Read it as fact in a non-fiction book... actually several.


A non-fiction book about a Mac 26M Ganz?



Either way, you wouldn't

survive.


Great fiction Capt. Too bad you have no evidence or proof whatsoever to
support it.



Yeah, too bad.


Once more Ganz, you do seem to have a fertile imagination and an
interesting, colorful style of fiction writing. I would encourage you to
give it a try.
