Great pics. Horvath claims to have crewed on boats that won flags, can't
offer any proof. Since the invasion of the sock puppets, Boob doesn't seem
to have been posting that much.

Got back to 2000+Posts.... No I'm not reading them all. I'll make the
report brief because I'm back to the boat tomorrow.

Great Sail to Mahone Bay. I left 2 days later than expected due to family
medical problems. I took some friends for the sail across. 4 adults and 4
kids. I let the kids sail this time. We sailed from the hook with the dory
in tow on a bridle at 1000hrs. 40 nautical miles and 5 hours later we
dropped hook in Mahone Bay to a busy harbour. A fantastic sail with only 4
tacks on a nice reach. I got lots of photos but most were taken with my
Nikon F4 on 35mm film. I'll post them to webshots when they are developed.
I do have some of the shots I took on Wednesday of last week posted to the
"Journal Album" on http://community.webshots.com/user/overproof

Nice day at the hook on Friday but I got caught up with family obligations
and missed the races. My nephew, on the other hand managed to spot the

girl
he was attracted to on the 32 Douglas we sailed with a couple of weeks ago
and got together with her. Saturday to last Friday it poured rain every

day
all day..... and it was miserable out. The family left on Sunday.... The
air itself seemed to become "wet". The races were cancelled on Saturday

and
by Sunday I developed a leak in the head which I traced to newly installed
blocks. I fixed that problem and promptly developed another leak in the
skylight. I fixed that problem as well. I missed both races on Sunday but

I
wasn't keen about kneeling in a plywood box for an hour and a half racing
other boxes in pouring rain. I managed to get in a couple of sail trips
during the week but the weather sucked. Lots of fog and powerboats

traveling
at planning speeds with no radar going by GPS waypoint to waypoint. I did

a
major clean up yesterday due to a shift in weather. I'm going back

tomorrow
to sail some more since it's back to hot and sunny weather and will

probably
bring Overproof back on Wednesday.

Did Bob get out to sea? Did Horvath win another flag? Oh boy.... I can't
wait to find out...... but until then.. I'll be sailing.

you haven't missed much. Sock puppets and other intellectual black
holes is about all. Not worth the powder & shot to blow them back
where they belong.

Hope you enjoy the last week of your summer :-)

You met two Horvaths at PIB. One crewed on Orange Barrel, and took a
second place. One crewed on Magic, and took a second place, and one
crewed against you on Moisture Missile, and kicked your ass.

Hey Horvath,

I guess you don't read results very often.

John and that crew were just there to continue to work on tuning up a
new crew and owner against two other J33 (two of the best sailed boats
on this end of the lake). They all blew out missle more than the other
way. (You can't count the time Missle turned in the wrong finish time
and got caught.)

Did you remember to flush the "trophy" when you were through?

"hero" Horvath did pontificate as he is want to do:
