Willie-boy, you really expose your lack of knowledge of the "Cruising"
world every time you post.


PKB! You don't even know what cruising is, apparently. You seem to confuse
voyaging and cruising.

Now sit down and think how you would want your "Real Cruising" boat
equipped. Not the afternoon junket down the bay, or even the weekend
cruising. No, the real cruising life style - you sell the house, kiss
the kids good-bye and sail off.


So far, so good. . .

That is the type of people in my world and once you depart from the
bounds of the afternoon cruise in the bay (and then you discover that
the winds aren't blowing you abandon that). I'm talking about, say a
"cruise" from Perth, Australia to Phuket, Thailand; maybe a nice trip
from Singapore to India (non stop), you know stuff like that? A little
late to abandon "afternoon cruise" when you are in the middle of the
Indian Ocean and the wind stops blowing.


Those are voyages. Get a clue. I realize you are getting senile but try to
pay attention.


I suspect that once you try to pack your dunnage onto a tiny little
boat like yours you might change your tune a little. Imagine -
everything you own on a peanut sized boat, no storage ashore, just you
and your boat.... and little is better?


I have everything I desire aboard except perhaps for a JessicaB and that
would probably require a slightly larger boat of around 32 feet or so to
have space and comfort for two people and their things. But, as a
lone-hander 27 feet is plenty enough. I know because I live the cruising
life in perfect contentment with no desire for a larger boat.

No Willie-boy, you don't know a thing about real cruisers and you
demonstrate your ignorance in your every post. Jesus! Cheating Walmart
out of the price of a bottle of booze? A real cruiser!


What's with the bottle of booze myth! You are mixing me up with somebody
else. There's not even a Wal-Mart around here, for Pete's sake.
