I can't see any humiliation or beating Bob.

That's why it's going to be fun!

What I'm questioning is your claim of "beatings" and
"humiliation".... I can't see the context Bob.

I am 100% confident that you're unable to solve this riddle. Rest assured it
will be solved on Monday.

It seems to me that Mooron's point is that you appear to be exhibitng a
somewhat cavalier approach to your journey.

Sweet, innocent, fresh-faced newbie that I am, I believe the that purpose of
having a plan is that it's easier to tell when things aren't going to plan.
For instance, when there's a substantial difference in predicted position
and observed position, one can infer that something is amiss and can dfeal
with it accordingly. Without a plan to refer to, recognising a potential
problem might take that much longer, to the extent that one could be in
serious danger before realising it.

His claims and posting time don't add up.... he posted at 1430hrs. Anyone
preparing for an overnight trip with a 1500hr depature time would be aboard
and securing stations by now.

I wouldn't rely on the times and proposed schedule to be anything but an
elaborate deception. It's just Bob being Bob..... deal with it.

I took the 1500hr to be when he leaves his house. I don't know how far he is
from the boat, but I think he claimed that it was already provisioned. So,
maybe departing from the slip at 1600-1700?

Quite. The tour boat hypothesis (or competent crew delivery of Alien) is
starting to look ever more likely.

Hey Nutsy,

Your staying over in Cold Spring Harbor,
Many ,many years ago there was a very productive clam bank, just North
of the tanks. I suppose it has been dug out but it did provide many
Little Necks on the half shell for me when I was a boy.

Those where the days when my sailing vessel was a 12 ft canoe with a
Lateen rig

so you don't believe he's sailing anywhere either.

I cannot see anything from Bob after 14:03.

Agreed!

We can be fairly certain that Bob isn't going to sail 50 miles from his
marina. However, he seems very confident that he will contact BB on the
VHF.

I wonder if he knows somebody who works for the CG?? That could explain his
confidence in the power of the radio!!


I don't believe that Alien is available for charter. Charter boats are
either fairly new, or fairly special! A 1980 C&C 32 is neither. It *is*
possible that it is being used for sailing courses, but Bob wouldn't be
aboard for a course that involved a 50 mile trip from his marina.

I am looking forward to the wriggling that will follow Monday's explanation!


Regards


Donal

Oh... apologies... I didn't realize this was one of your running gags. Glad
I didn't spoil it for you....

Makes sense now as to why you were reluctant to discuss the details.

I really should know better than to approach you with any topic regarding
sailing. Excuse me while I remove the hook and make a note in my log.
