Nom should know about this.
Without any protected way to get from point A to B such as the ICW
on
the east and Gulf coasts, isnt it a bit difficult to sail north up
the
coast? Do people sail northwards near shore or do they all go
WAAAAAAAY offshore?


Since the Gulf Stream turns westward two hundred miles south of
us...we
don't have that worry.
The Labrador current may affect boats up around northern Cape Breton,
but
that's what we have the Bras d'Or lakes for.
Along our 'mainland' coast, people sail where they want to...out far
enough
to avoid dangerous areas but not so far that ducking into numerous
small
harbours for the night is difficult or time consuming.
You'd fit right in up here Froggy...the nicer marinas are few& far
between
along the coast but every small community has a government wharf for
the
commercial fishermen. If you like roughin' it...you could stay
anywhere
at
minimal or no cost for the night.




How big is your sailboat, Don?

Try to keep up Dingy. I sold my sailboat& temporarly joined the
ranks
of
the infernal combustion crowd in the fall of 2007.



2-1/2 years ago? I wasn't here and I certainly wouldn't have saved any
of
those posts.

You seem to like adolescent name-calling did you learn it from anyone
here?

Yeah...from the counter guy at Elite Contractors Supply.



This "Larry" suffers from multiple personality disorder. One week he's
Krueger, then he's Bob, then he's Larry...I guess his wife tells him by
the smell, which doesn't change.

You have to wonder once in a while why losers like "Krueger," "FlaJim,"
"Loogy," "Snotty," et al, feel compelled to completely change their IDs
here more often than they change their underwear. I admit to using
variations of my name or initials, but I'm still "HK" and I'm not
pretending to be someone else.

Then, of course, we have the "anonymous" posters, who come here only to
insult other posters, preferably those who are less anonymous. These are
the twerps who just know if they were identifiable, they'd be punched in
the nose every day by those they insulted. Top Bass, JCP, et cetera, et
cetera, et cetera.

And, finally, the ID spoofers...who have nothing to add to any discussion.
