So far this Summer, Alien has taken the following jaunts...

2-3 day trips:
2 trips to Oyster Bay
Trip to Port Jefferson
Trip to Thimble Islands
Trip to Norwalk
Trip to Centerport
Trip to NY Harbor, sailing about 20 miles off from Verzano bridge and home
again.
Trip to NY Harbor and Jersey City
This weekend we'll return to Huntington and perhaps Sunkin Meadow. Following
weekends have yet to be planned. We had probably more than 50 daysails and
nightsails! We spent some "thrilling" nights in the slip listening to the rain!
We sailed on no less than five other boats (perhaps 6 if we go on Marc' Freedom
36 today). We managed a lot of time aboard, dispite Suzanne working at a
Hospital, going to school and my production work!
Suzanne liked it all enough to suggest a bigger modern boat and a trip to
Martha's Vineyard in the Spring!!!!

Where did Mooron go??? Where did Donal go? Did Neal drop his mooring lines even
once? Were they even aboard their boats? Like I said...I always win!!!

Bwahahahahahahaha!

What is it that you win?
Why is winning so important?
You get a prize?
or a qualification?
some recognition perhaps?
I enjoy what I do with my boat.
Apart from avoiding a collision... I dont give a toss what you do with
yours.
is how much sailing you do relevant or important to how much sailing someone
else does?

perhaps you could enlighten me?

What is it that you win?

The Prize.

Why is winning so important?

It's not.

You get a prize?
or a qualification?

Both.

I enjoy what I do with my boat.

We're happy for you!

Apart from avoiding a collision... I dont give a toss what you do with
yours.

Thanks!

is how much sailing you do relevant or important to how much sailing someone

It's important to Mooron!

perhaps you could enlighten me?

Please ask Mooron. He "knows all!"

Not really Bob..... I take it you're referring to your Thimbles Trip & my
questions regarding particulars and navigation. I frankly found it odd that
you adopted an evasive attitude in regards to my inquiries. What could have
evolved into an interesting thread on navigation [certainly there would have
been jabs at you.. so what].. instead turned into a complicated troll vs
troll. I'll take blame for a portion of that for sure... but it seems you
can't communicate on anything but that level. Yes Bob it's all in fun... but
that shouldn't mean that no information can be exchanged.

I do know a lot.... but in my over 20 years of sailing I had not seen [
well maybe I did see it but didn't realize it] a shelf footed sail. I was
sure that it was either a bolt rope or lugs unless you were running free
footed. I'll be keeping my attention more focused on that when I visit the
marina or go sailing. Nobody here "Knows All" Bob.... but the expertise is
here for almost any subject regarding sailing..... if you care to learn.
So far it seems your sole intent has been to troll...

That is a very odd assertion.

There is only one person here who uses words like "busted", "I won" and
"loser". Those sound like the words that a "know all" would use.


Bob, you're busted!

It's a little late to get serious...but ok.

If in the future you take the reins and lead the thread into a positive
tangent.... the fun and ribbing can still be incorporated along with the
information. This in no way means I'm cutting you any slack.... so don't get
soft on me Okay! ;-)
