My postings are on-topic, to the point and realistic. They examine things
like noisy, discourteous sailors who do many of the things you say you do,
including running the portable Honda generator on deck when anchored in a
crowded anchorage. Did you delete the paragraph about rude, inconsiderate
and noisy sailors because you felt a twinge of guilt?

:{)) Obviously you don't read my postings very closely.

A: I don't DO crowded anchorages, unless it's the only game in town, such
as Block Island on Labor Day, or Georgetown, in the season.

B: I very rarely run the Honda, having an abundance of green power.

C: In such crowded places as found in A, my Honda is lost among nearly every
other cruiser's accompaniment, should I run it (see B). In my normal
anchorages, there's nobody within earshot, and very frequently (our
preference) not even in sight. I even turn off our cockpit speakers when
we're watching a movie, out of consideration for those around me if I'm in a
crowd. In the case instant, you couldn't hear it for the wind, anyway,
regardless of its being on, very briefly.

Nice try.

Skip, about to watch yet another movie.

"Believe me, my young friend, there is *nothing*-absolutely nothing-half so
much worth doing as simply messing, messing-about-in-boats; messing about in
boats-or *with* boats.
In or out of 'em, it doesn't matter. Nothing seems really to matter, that's
the charm of it.
Whether you get away, or whether you don't; whether you arrive at your
destination or whether you reach somewhere else, or whether you never get
anywhere at all, you're always busy, and you never do anything in
particular; and when you've done it there's always something else to do, and
you can do it if you like, but you'd much better not."
