What a big cry baby you are, Booby! I remember
Ganz's particulars were posted years ago and even he did not whine and cry like you do. Posting a link is perfectly acceptable behavior. The information is public information. You allow it to be so when you document your vessel. If you don't want the information public then don't document. The only reason you documented in the first place was an ego thing. You got what you deserved. If you don't shut up I'll post yours and your wife's social security number and credit card numbers. That information is also easy to come by. S.Simon "Bobsprit" wrote in message ... I never once said that you did. I said you have posted lots of personal information, and even invited people to look up your documentation. Nothing you say will change the fact that YOU posted someone's address here. I know you want to think that there's nothing wrong with that. Of course anyone can be found with a little research and a few clicks, but posting it to a newsgroup is simply not done. It's a crappy thing to do. I've met four people from this group in person. I've kept the lid on two of those meetings to keep things lively here. Even after a couple of sails with Marc, I'd be happy to bash him in the interest of fun. But I wouldn't post his address, even if he ****ed me off. It's a new newsgroup, Bill. It's not REAL. You actually don't know me at all, or most of the others here. Try to remember that the next time you get angry here and decide it's okay to post someone's address, even through a link. RB |

Simple,
Once again I'm sorry to say, you are wrong. The depth has to do with the height of the HULL. When you spoke of tonnage, you were referring to displacement. Displacement refers to the weight of the water displaced by the HULL. The Hull is measured from the Gunnel to the top of the keel. The tonnage has to do with displaced water not cargo space. It is not measured to the cabin overhead, any more than it is measure to the height of the cockpit floor. The 5 ft Measurement is probably correct. Superstructure doesn't count. The measurements on the application is just another example of Coast Guard "Gobble-de-Gook" The CG acts like it is their duty to make anything simple a subject to a complicated interruption.

You are misinformed. Documentation looks at tonnage
and tonnage is a measure of volume and has little to do with displacement. Allow me to quote an authority - Eric Hiscock from his fine book, "Cruising Under Sail". "Depth is an internal measurement taken from the underside of the deck amidships to the top of the main keel." "Tonnage is found by calculating the capacity of the hull and then making certain deductions for engine space, stores, chartroom, etc." In other words, tonnage, when documenting a vessel, is a figure that represents internal volume and ability to haul cargo therein. This type of tonnage actually is derived from the word 'tun', which is a cask used in the wine trade and the size of a ship used to be judged by the number of tuns that could be stowed in the holds. I'm surprised an old salt like you is so ignorant when it comes to documented tonnage. S.Simon "Thom Stewart" wrote in message ... Simple, Once again I'm sorry to say, you are wrong.

Sorry Nutsy,
Bill, made Susy's address public. Not your's. There seems to be some dougbt that Apt #5 is a common address for the two of you. It seems to me I remember you posting that you had a House. Are you saying now that your house is an Apartment building in KEW GARDENS? OT |

A fair explanation, but your first several posts on the topic indicated you did not
understand the measurement. It was only after I posted the link to the measurement that you started to get it close to right. Modern measurement of tonnage does not generally measure to the coachroof, it only goes up to the deck. Thus, a vessel with full headroom might only be listed at 5 feet. My old Nonsuch, with generous headroom ( 6.5 feet ?) is listed as having a 5.6 foot Depth. "Simple Simon" wrote in message ... You are misinformed.
