| I love it when Mooron gets caught lying!
| 1) I clearly indicated that I saw few boats, which MIGHT be normal for the
| area.

H-m-m-m-m-m...."You can't sail into that channel. Especially on this day.
We're minutes from
the entrance, flanked by dopey powerboaters."

| 2) I clearly stated that I had to put the camera away due to spray when it
| picked up.

H-m-m-m-m...."Why? Why? Why? On our approach to Thimbles, 15-20, gusts past
25. So? Does that
matter to you?"

| Uh oh, Mooron! More lashes for you?

I think you may have clipped your ears both times with the last "crack of
the whip" Bob....

| Hooooh ahhh! Two balls out again!

Nope... I'm wearing coveralls today.

Now how difficult was that Bob? Why didn't you just state that fact
originally?

Winds weren't as bad as we approached,
| but there was some flakey powernboat traffic.

I take it that's why you put the camera away? .. and why you claimed I lied
about your statement regarding boat traffic?

This gets better with every step.....

What's the problem with posting the specifics on the medium you so clearly
boasted on last week for several days??

Why should we contact you off group for what amounts to standard report
procedure?

They certainly don't confirm your "spray" claim Bob. !5 knots... maybe
gusting to 20 or 25 but no photos to even indicate that probability. Lok
Bob.. it's your boast.. I just want to see confirmation... don't hold me to
blame if you don't provide it.

Basic navigation isn't any more work than hoisting or trimming.... to
people who have the knowledge. You seem to be sailing by luck rather than by
plan.

Why do you feel like I'm attacking you when all I seek is some very basic
clarification of a trip you boasted for days and claimed you would provide
unquestionable facts to back up? It seems you have so far been unwilling or
unable to provide answers to questions sparked by mild curiosity. If you are
feeling cornered and think I'm throwing to hard... just say so and I'll let
the matter sit. It's your ass on the line... not mine. I could care less.
It's been an exercise in coastal navigation procedure for the lurkers and
your audience.

Where did I lie Bob? What did I say that makes you think I have purposefully

Not at all. The trip itself was in question, first and foremost.

Remember how I said you'd take a beating on Monday at my key strokes? It has

If you had, in fact, sailed to the Thimbles, it's not like anyone

Oh man...!!! That's one sad, post, Billy Jane!!!
I understand, really I do. You should have stayed silent when you saw that the
weather was going to be so perfect for the weekend. Maybe a rainy friday and
Sat. would have made us alter our plans.
SORRY!

I'm certain you keep that quote handy and repeat it often when the wind

That's not entirely correct Bill... I for one did not express any doubt as
to his accomplishment of the trip since his return. [Although I did express
doubt as to it's validity when presented with Bob's lack of planning prior
to departure] My only concern was as to the type and quality of his
report.... it provided only sketchy detail and relative descriptions...
insufficient to present itself as irrefutable proof. Photos are not valid
since most of us have no idea of the area. All my efforts to get Bob to stem
the many holes was rebuffed. When that proved ineffective to dislodge me
from what was obviously a task appointed.. he resorted to ad hominem attacks
and finally to claiming victory because I would not establish contact with
him off line. It has descended into a comical line dance with Bob
sidestepping as quickly as the tempo.

Well actually Bill... Bob is like family here. The cousin that always brags
and never really accomplishes anything worthwhile. I like Bob... he's a
rascal. I don't often take him to task.... but this looked way too
enticing and the Hyena Pack I've been playing with was fading faster than
paint on the south side of a barn.

I've seen that crazy bugger drive some posters to absolute mouth frothing
dementia.... He's good... no doubt about it...... but he was getting rusty
feeding on his regular platter of fish. It needed addressing... and there's
nothing like a real issue with logical reasoning to launch a campaign. If
you're going to battle against Sir Bob - The Grey Knight... made certain you
wear the Armour of Logic carry the Shield of Innocence and brandish the
Flaming Sword of Indignation. Works like a charm! ;-D

I already asked that question myself.... but to date it and the others have

Maybe Oz can answer it for you... he seems to have taken up the task since
Bob went sailing again. Careful though.. he's not about to stand for any
questions regarding Bob's credibility.

Hey I can answer that one.

He was hungry!?

No, no! Why did he *stop* for lunch??? Why didn't he eat underway?

I can only think of one reason for stopping to have lunch on a 9 hour trip.

It would be normal to stop on a sunday afternoon sail, but I wouldn't stop
