Thank you for clearing that up. I thought you were accusing me of
maliciously giving Bob false information when you were merely
imputing over optimism on my part in Bob's ability to navigate a
clearly marked channel.

Meanwhile, you are directing him to an anchorage outside his target
area, of questionable holding ability , open the S/W to the S/E,
exposed to wakes from motorcraft in the adjacent channel and
containing an unmarked rock outcrop.

It is sad that your animus for Bob would cause you to give him
misleading information.

In answer to your irrelevent question, I've got crew, fuel, water, and
provisions. Depending on the wind, any where between Cape May and
Block Island.

You directed Bobadil to a place that he could not safely navigate to, as an
option to the Thimble Islands, which he could also never safely navigate to.

Bobadil, if he is not a total chicken **** and fraud, can get his boat safely
to, and anchored at, Big Mer. this weekend. I'll be looking for him. Where will
you be?

Billy...please be standing by on Channel 9. We'll be heading your way on Friday
afternoon.
Shall I hail Binary Bill or a specific boat name?

Where will you be staying?

Actually...on board. We have no plans to do anything but sail, swim and row
around with the dinghy.

so I will likely be in the area. Just
tell me where you will be, and I'll make a point of swinging by to see
if you are there.

I'll leave my radio on channel 9 and I approach Thimble Islands. Who should I
hail?
Nothing evasive. It's a specific question. If you're around you'll hear me.
I'll be taking a lot of pics for the website.
Who shall I hail?

RB

OKAY bobADIL
 

I don't LIVE near Branford. I don't monitor VHF when I'm at home. I
couldn't respond, even if I did, as I'm many miles inland.

Uh, you SAIL many miles inland? Didn't you just say you'll be sailing the area
during the weekend. If that's true, you'll hear me/see me.
I expect we'll be approaching the Thimble Islands Mid-Saturday. How's that?

RB

OKAY bobADIL
 

Naturally, you'll post a picture showing a recognizable piece of
Alien,

Not a problem. You don't need the paper and I won't wander around the shore
looking for one. If you see us, the boat and the Islands, that's enough. Had I
been there you know I'd have posted pics by now.
Weather is looking GREAT for the weekend.

RB

OKAY bobADIL
 

I will be sailing in that area during the weekend, but not ALL
weekend. I can see that you are trying to set up an out for yourself
already.

But I will be there for much of the weekend, making entirely probably that
you'll catch my hail. Stop being so difficult. Channel 9. I'm betting you'll
hear from me. I'll hail "Binary Bill" mid afternoon Saturday and on the return
Sunday. That's plenty of margin. There will be plenty of pics and I'll take
good ones of your boat if I see you!

RB

OKAY bobADIL
 

Bill it's unfair to state you believe Bob won't show and yet be evasive
yourself about a contact. Why not just wait for a Hail and selectively hunt
him down in the mean time. It can't be that large an area

It isn't and he's being very evasive. I'll be there long enough to contact, if
he shows.
Channel 9. I'll try hailing from 12-6 pm at 30 minute intervals on Saturday.
I'll also have plenty of pics to show come monday. I'll also get a pic with my
Verizon phone, which shows date and time. It's fed from Verizon and can't be
changed.

RB

I wouldn't bet on it. Line of sight only.

I don't live near Branford, so unless I happen to be sailing in the
area, hailing won't do you much good.

We'll be staying aboard. I easily make 30 miles on the VHF, so why won't
hailing work? If you're out there you'll hear me.
You'll look pretty silly when I post pics. Just leave the radio on channel 9.

Bobsprit, as you well know, challenged me to
a race a few weeks ago, and then never showed up.

You mean you were waiting for me even after I told you that I could make it two
weeks later?
Hmmmm!

RB

OKAY bobADIL
 

I could produce a photo of my cell phone showing any date I want pretty
easily

I've never "fixed a pic." That's Neal's game. You're not going to show. We'll
be there.

The whole thing
can then be pasted onto a stock backgroud photo, or one "borrowed" from a book,
magazine or website. Pictures of the Thimble Islands abound.

Yeah, there are tons of books with pics of Thimble Islands with C&C32's towing
a Quicksilver dinghy!
I guess I was already there and will post my "old" pics of the trip, right
Jane? Don't you know how to tell if a pic has been "modified?"
You're so "worried" we're coming your way!
Channel 9. There's NO reason you won't hear me unless you're home. Saturday
between 12-6 pm every half hour I'll hail you.

Capt RB

OKAY bobADIL
 

For me it isn't a question of showing up. I sail that area almost weekly. For
you it's an issue, because you have yet to go ANYWHERE

If I haven't BEEN ANYWHERE then my pics will have to be accepted. Perhaps you
know where I can lay my hands on pics of my boat near the Thimble Islands to
post?
Channel 9. Stop acting so silly.

Bwahahahaha!

VERY hard to create in a way that can take any scrutiny. Pixel match is near
impossible, which is why even the best composites are easy to spot once
enlarged.

I'll be within easy hailing distance of the Thimbles late this
afternoon. So, you are claiming to be there right now?

Nope, but according to you I've never been there, yet I somehow have pics of my
boat there...so I must be there NOW!

Ooops! Try hailing me!

So, If I hail you Saturday morning, there is no way you could not hear
me? Okay!

We'll be well on our way Saturday morning. I'd bet you can reach me by around
10-11 am and certainly my noon saturday. At noon I'll be hailing you on channel
9.
How's dat?
