Not really, but it wouldn't surprise me if he made that claim. Have you
figured out who it is here that he's trying to impress?

Back in the early days of this news group Harry was always dueling
with "Skipper" from Derby, Kansas. Skipper was a crusty old
reprobate who claimed to own a nearly invincible small Bayliner cuddy.
The two of them were always duking it out and it was humorous at
times. Skipper believed that his Bayliner could do just about
anything, go virtually anywhere, and that it was just about the ideal
boat. Harry, of course, had to invent a series of (probably)
imaginary boats that would one-up Skippers mighty Bayliner. In those
days there were enough real boaters in the group that a little noise
from Harry and Skipper really wasn't all that obtrusive. All was more
or less well and good until George Bush won the first presidential
election. That pushed Harry over the edge and he really hasn't been
the same since. Skipper left the group shortly thereafter so Harry
had to find new sparring partners.


Skipper could write a bit and occasionally turn a nice phrase, so his
tales of Bayliner Adventures were and are far more interesting than than
the boring and repetitive trips you take in that old barge of yours.
Unfortunately, something horrific must have happened to him near the end
of his time here, and he went over the deeper end of really crazy
right-wing politics. He became a combination of Rick Santorum and
Michele Bachmann. Then his disappeared.

The rest of your post is just more of your boyish "Wayne hates Harry"
bull****.
