It finally hit me.
A fall voyage would be nice. But my wife and I are going to be heading to
Seattle for most of the month of September, if current plans work out. Neal also would need a couple of months to return to Tampa after his spanking. Thank you for the idea though, if Neal is serious and Seattle falls through, I am open to suggestion "katysails" wrote in message ... You want 20 -30 knots on youe anemometer, I can assure you it will happen. Heck, that's an average September day on Lake MI...yesterday was 25=30 with 7 footers...earlier this week the waves were 8-10. I think you should make the race during the autumn season...They've already got the orance "save the beach" fences up at the shore parks and the windsurfers are having a ball out there in the heavy surf along with the MI surfers (they're a weird breed...) -- katysails s/v Chanteuse Kirie Elite 32 http://katysails.tripod.com "Women and cats will do as they please, and men and dogs should relax and get used to the idea." - Robert A.

S.Simon - if your depth sounder can get a reading then you ain't really sailing. |

Horass,
You're suggestions are not welcome. You know nothing about sailing. "Horvath" wrote in message ... On Sun, 28 Sep 2003 23:37:14 GMT, "The Carrolls" wrote this crap: A fall voyage would be nice.

If it looks like a chicken, it clucks like a chicken it must be Neil. No
response either way? Just ignore it it'll go a way? Not hardly. "The Carrolls" wrote in message .. . This route is approximately 800 miles. You want more, we can go to Duluth and back to Houghton where my son goes to school, or even the Toledo light. You want 20 -30 knots on youe anemometer, I can assure you it will happen. You want 10 foot seas or larger, that too. Quit waffeling, you challanged, I accept. Your current "Cut the Mustard" vs My current "Maybee Crazy" from the Toledo light 7-4-04 6am. The challenger does not get to set the course or conditions, they only get to back out. Why do you think the Americas cup was held in New Zeland last. "Simple Simon" wrote in message ... I never chicken out but I DO INSIST on setting the race course. Some people have the cheek to say I don't sail and never leave the mooring, etc. but they're wrong. I sail so much that some little sheltered water day trip is not my idea of sailing anymore. I like oceans and long distances single-handing. I like boat and master to work as a team over long periods of time and strong winds with big seas derived from hundreds or thousands of miles of fetch. I don't like to see readings on my depth sounder for extended periods of time and I like to see 20-30 knots on my anemometer. If I'm gonna hafta spend my time racing some wannabe klutz then I insist on making a voyage out of it - not some silly around the buoys flim-flamery. I've no interest in racing some crummy little inland course. That's for lubbers like Bobsprit, LOCO, Pony Express, Horvath, Ganz, Katysails, Mooron, Oz1, Donal, Navigator, Haggie, Jeff Morris, Shen44, onnmbrd, Joe Butcher, Billy Jane, etc. etc. So, please don't insult me with anything less than a race of at least five hundred miles with mostly open water.
