Yes, I'll race you from George Town, Exuma, Bahamas
to Key West, FL via Habana, Cuba.

Put up or shut up.

150K. Double your pot. I make the challenge, dummy. Sail to my cruising area in
the Spring and we'll race around Long Island. I'll arrange escrow acounts. I'll
pay you 150K if you win, plus airfare home if you don't want to sail back.
Since I'm a busy man and married, this is reasonable. You have nothing else to
do and have the experience to get here. I don't have the experience to make the
trip to you yet.
My offer is reasonable and the wager is large enough to make it worthwhile.
I'll SINGLEHAND my boat for the race.

Your boat Coronado 27 with whatever sail inventory you have vs. my boat C&C 32
with her CURRENT inventory of sails.

Now...YOU put up or shut up! If you were any kind of a sailor and man you'd
come just for the hell of it!

You couldn't lure me to L.I.S. for a million bucks. The
stink, the pollution, the pale pasty-white New York
women. Yuck!

You challenged me to a race. I accepted and set the course.
Fine black women are for the taking in George Town. Young
white girls are for the buying in Habana. And, there's gay guys
galore in Key West just for you should you manage to finish.

It doesn't get any better than that!

You gonna race or are you gonna chicken out?

There you have it folks. I also said it would be around LI, so it's open water
to the Atlantic as well. I'll even make the whole race open Atlantic...we can
race out 100 miles or so to an agreed coordinate and race back to NY harbor.

Bobby, I've got bad news for you! You can't drop anchor for lunch out in
the Atlantic. Perhaps you should think of something different?

You're forgetting this is New York! You can get Take-Out for anything. Even McDonalds
delivers!

I'm sure RB could arrange a SeaTow delivery from Atelier - maybe that's the special
incentive Neal need's to make the trip.

Are you sure about that?

Poor Donal!

Only to people who own them, and therefore HAVE to think they are somehow
better. Truth is, the Mark V was a vast improvement.

How so?

Eh??? I own a C&C 32 and I don't "have" to think it's better than a C&C 99. I
do think it's better than a C&C 30 (any version), which was a far and away a
better selling boat.
