NOW, about boats. *It is well known among sailors that the bigger the
boat, the less it is sailed. *Big boats tend to be marina queens.


There's a local guy around here that has loads of dough that he's
gained by rather undisclosed means that has an 85' "something" sitting
docked at Ky. Lake. Every fall he fires it up and ICW's his way to
Florida where it sits all winter and he flies back. then in the
spring, he fires it back up and moves it back to Kentucky lake and int
he fall he repeats the process.


And that's about it.


So, Tim. Given that I started a thread about boats and it was polluted by
right-wing bs, I don't see you having much to say about how these two bozos
are off topic. Yet, when someone on the left makes a political statement,
you get bent out of shape. Why is that?


Why is what? I'm no net cop, and I never call anyone an 'idiot' but
seeing that you mentioned it, Canuck threw a good boating thread
making it political recently and I reacted to his post wishing to keep
it about boating. Not thread OP's but which do you respond to, more
boating or political posts.
