Hey Neal - you won, Booby just announced it! None of your arguments made any sense to me,
but booby is convincing. I think you should take lessons from him! "CANDChelp" wrote in message ... This why the Crapton©'s picture is in the dictionary under the definition of "loser" He is relying on Bubbles to help his claim that he won! He did win. Jeff lost, then tried to alter the thread and finally called Neal names. Neal stayed on topic and proved his points. I'm hardly a huge fan of Neal's, but I know a knock out when I see one. Jeff hit the matt cold. RB |

Why don't you get one of those big ass extra long boarding ladders. I heard they prevent that kind of thing from happening. S/V Express 30 "Ringmaster" Trains are a winter sport |

They were prepared for an afternoon sail. These boats are used for racing & instruction
only. I forget why they were let out and then forgotten about. Of course, in my youth, I recall going out "after hours" a few times. In fact, I camped club boats (different club) on that island a number of times, but only in the Summer. I'll try to track down a record of it, but it was pre-web and not something that gets advertised. "The Cappys Master" Cappy kneels wrote in message ...

There is plenty of room under the deck of a Soling. If it was cold they would or should have been dressed warmly. Drop the sails, use them to cover the front of the cockpit after lining it with spinnakers and jib and snuggle down for the night. Oh and always carry flares! Oz1...of the 3 twins.

OK Already. I agree. But they didn't. I can't remember why - If they were on the spit
at low tide they could have walked to the island. But if they were on rocks, tried to get in, but got soaked instead, they'd have a problem. Cemeteries are filled with people that "should" have survived. "The Cappys Master" Cappy kneels wrote in message ... You didn't read my post! They should easily have survived one night!

Hard to imagine that they couldn't stay alive for a single night. The winter I spent in Minnesota was one of the coldest on record. A resident hopped out to get his morning paper, got locked out and froze to death. His tracks showed how he'd walked around his house trying windows then started for his neighbors house. After some 20 yards he circled away, apparently loosing it, and fell ... all in minutes. I know it's never that cold on the water but ...? Cheers Howard |
