Mark my words. You've not been out in a big sea yet. Everyone falls over
sooner or later, doing it safely is a part of seamanship!

It'll NEVER happen. I'm simply to coordinated and quick. 6 years ago I fell in
the snow. It took four young and very energetic girls to take me down. They
joined me.

We always laugh at the dorks sailing with fenders on deck.

They are not in the way, not in the least. They are properly secured and

won't
be lost. Outside of the aesthetics, leaving them on deck during a short

sail
does no harm. None.

Let's hope the fender breaks my fall. Those decks are hard!

I don't have to prove anything. It's a fact.

They should never be sitting on deck.

Still awaiting the reason why. If we were sailing for many hours, it would

be
another matter. But a couple of hours in calm conditions? Makes no

difference.
And no one can prove otherwise.

But if you tripped over them and fell overboard you'd sing a different

I'm going to trip over a big giant blue plastic balloon? Oh, okay! I

haven't
tripped or fallen in 5 years! And I mountain bike, run and jog.
How old are you???

Given his rotundness,
he would just roll right back up to standing position.

Ganzy, my body fat is quite a bit lower than yours. I'm also in better

shape
overall.

It's not a fact. It's something someone told you. You can't prove it or even
explain by example. A fender in calm conditions over a two hour sail is lazy,
but that's all.
