Getting Ready, Bill!
 
I've stated that your total routing will leave you insufficient
time to make the Thimble Islands destination for anything more than an
evening anchor.

At what point did you make the decision that we planned more than an evening
anchor?

''I expect we'll be approaching the Thimble Islands Mid-Saturday. How's
that?"

Yup...between 4-6 pm I expect.

I thought you were a drinker. Midday is about 4-6 pm.

It's interesting that any of you feel the need to a "plan"

sailed

What I find "interesting" is your assumption that no "plan" is required
when sailing to a schedule.... which is exactly what you are doing Bob.
Logistics that involve the terms "around", "about", "if" and "when" beg for
address as to their value. Please define your definition of "local" . I
doubt it requires provisioning and multi-day planning.

It seems you feel that we are overly concerned about your venture ... this
is not the case... you are sailing in protected waters with a sound vessel.
The issue I'm attempting to address with you is your expectations versus
reality. Can you provide the weather forecast, tide, distances, wind
conditions, estimated points of sail, expected conditions and time frames of
your "local" trip to the Thimbles in a coherent and informative manner so as
we may have the opportunity to review it properly? This is after all a
sailing news group and you did request that I concentrate on "On-Topic"
subject matter.... I'm requesting further clarification of your claims.
