Default Neal's Awful Sails

Loco,

He modified the Boom that is on there. He wanted a Mid Boom sheeting
set-up. That is what caused the break. He reinforced the area of the
break and it is working,

It isn't just a problem of getting another boom. It's a modified boom
and he is making it work. Good or Bad, it is working.

Granted it may be heavy enough that he doesn't need a vang,G It is his
modification and he is happy with. Its' no skin off our ass.

Thom, did you take a class in being a jerk? Gullable? What makes you think Neal
has tested that boom in any kind of real weather. He has NEVER left these
boards nor his mooring for any length of time. When he told us of a trip, he
continued to battle Jax in another forum!

Snap out of it! There's no santa either!

You keep saying that, but he did leave (was it a year ago?) for his trip to the Abacos.
He posted a detailed log, which I'm inclined to believe, especially since it was filled
with comments about motorsailing. Frankly, I don't think its that great of an
achievement, but its a lot more than you've done.

I have no trouble believing Neal been to the Bahamas several times, the Dry Tortugas, and
up the SE coast. I'm a bit skeptical of his trip to Bermuda, but there's no reason why he
couldn't do that. This is not remarkable stuff - anyone that wants to can do it - it
doesn't even take much preparation or talent.

The real mystery is why you keep trying to impress us with your daysails.

Bob... let me put it plainly... until you venture out of the bay... kindly
shut your gaping maw when real sailors are talking. You have yet to learn to
sail let a lone navigate.
Learn your place in the pecking order here... it should give you a clear
view of the sole of my shoes.
