Current Position (as of ): Sorry no position came through tonight. - Mom"


The poor kid! Says in his blog that he has seven video cameras but I guess
he forgot about a sextant and GPS and charts????? Bwaaaaahahahahahahahah!
Apparently he doesn't do dead reckoning either. Boy does he ever have a lot
to learn about voyaging under sail. Looks like an accident waiting to
happen.

One thing about it Willie. You'll never forget to send a position
report ..... it is always the same .

Bruce,

Your friend Wilbur's attitude I found to be quite common amongst other
non-achievers when I was building my boat.

"Have you built a boat before?" - answer "No" and others in similar
vein. I quickly discovered that those who had achieved nothing in life
were the 'knockers' who ridiculed loudly. Those that had achieved
something and were content with their own lives and achievements were
the supportive ones.

Have some Christian charity and feel sorry for the poor *******. He is
a bitter aging failure with very negative self esteem. He probably
didn't even know who his father was. And if the whores I have seen on
the streets of Florida when apssing through in transit are typical, no
wonder he envies you who live in the land of the most beutiful
transvestites in the world. This is not a suggestion that you are so
inclined of course.

My God, I feel mean today.

My regards to your wife and the boat project,

Nice to have you back

Peter


Nope, I don;t feel sorry for him one little bit. From all I gather he
owns a yellow trailer sailer that is somewhat larger then Sea Dart,
the boat that Ron Reil and later Tristam Jones sailed for many years.
No reason that he couldn't go sailing, except fear. On the other hand
it is so much easier to sit at home and critique others.
