That's 3 unforgivable transgressions.... 1- No morning Java... 2- no weather
confirmation on WX... 3 - no verification on chart to forecast or existing
conditions. Bob.. the last 2 take about 5 minutes and provide a clearer
baseline of expected time and distance. It's basic safety... like wearing a
PFD. You seem to have a cavalier attitude towards proper navigation and
weather.

Yes Bob... discussing sailing is always fun..... email you direct...
why?... do you have something to hide?

was

BTW,

Look at the pics? You seem to able to judge wind speeds. What do they tell you
about the weather? Do you think the clear sky and dry cool air was a warning?
Why make work where no work is needed. Results are the final element. We stayed
on our schedule within a few hours for all three days. Obviously I can helm,
trim and navigate. Am I a master navigator? No way! Will I be. Yes, in time and
as required by the sailing we do.

Do you even have any balls left to pitch? How about a fast ball??? Bwahahahaha!
Do you now see how you're s-l-o-w-l-y being dragging through the bog of
humiliation??!!! Wait till Billy shows up! Bwahahahaha!

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.

Bob.. it's your boast.

Still, worse, I made no "boast."

e added some highlights he thought were interesting. He did not boast
for days on end about a passage and claim that he would provide proof.

So? he went for a sail and so did I. He listed points of interest. So did I. I
posted pics. He did not.
Hmmmm! There's some blood in the water and Mooron is feeding on his own
entrails!
