Default Her 1st Time!

I guess if I put a windex on I won't need tells?

I'm trying to tell you that you don't need either. They were on my boat when I
bought her.
Try sailing the Express without using the tells and windex. Learn trim based on
how the boat responds, not just the tells and spinning arrow.

I was going to buy a huge radar to put on the JY. Thought that might help
it make 15k in 6k wind.

Doesn't matter. The engine was on.

Watching the windex? Don't you have tells on your sails?

19 year old Irene was never on a sailboat before, but she got the hang

of
things quick, watching the windex and keeping Alien on a nice reach

while
the
rest of us relaxed. In this pick, she just completed her 1st tack.

Note also that the sudden acceleration

Yup....the throttle is full forward, right? You and Gay Ganzy sure know your
boats!

Bwahahahahhahaha!

We know who set up that particular boat, so anything is possible.

You don't know (nor did Gay Ganzy) which way is up or down on the engine
controls. While Ganzy knows nada about boats, I'd have expected you to know
something more!
Guess not!!!

Bwahahahahahaha!

Up, as I remember, is the direction towards the sky.

Down is also the direction of the sky, Bill. Earth is a sphere.
Don't you know anything?
