even holding one of the friggin chocks??? Bwahahahahahahahahahaaa!!!

Uh oh. He's going "armpit" on me!

Well Bob.... it's a standard method of checking for dry rot. But don't let
the fact that I've worked with boat builders and fisherman

According to informed folk, my friend was right. It's a good idea to change the
wedges after 5-10 years. Removing them means redoing the boot, so might as well
put new wedges in. As for using her knife, you've made a total idiot of
yourself suggesting that she was pushing the blade into the end grain.
Yikes. I'll let you figure out what she was doing...think hard!

Bwahahahahahahahahaaaa!!!

I defy you to post where I quoted her as such. Go ahead, show everyone

you're
not a liar!


Bob, Either you don't believe that a woman can tell that your hardwood
wedges are rotten by poking a knife into the sharp end, or you're an idiot.

Face facts. You're an idiot!
You're not half as stupid(or rich) as Oz is, though!

How do you even figure out how to untie the dock lines... never mind
navigate??


What on Earth makes you think that he "navigates"?

Jeeeze, he doesn't even bother to check the tides before fabricating a
ridiculous story about a *big* trip down LIS!

Now, now, Robert.
Don't exaggerate.

He probably thought that you were a responsible sailor. I cannot
understand how he could be so stupid! Normally, he is quite sensible.

Thanks, Bob.

couple of hours".... CHOICE!

Gosh I don't know Bob... maybe the following:

" Yes, she did push her knife into a couple of the wedges. They are

easily visible from the cabin"

BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAA!!!!

Ozzy... cripes get in here fast... Bob desperately needs you...AGAIN! :-D
