You and Bobsprit both show how lubberly your attitudes
and why neither of you will EVER become real sailors. Fact: Anyone who pays for a spot in a marina and thinks it preferable to living away from the trailer park trash who live aboard in a marina is stupid and will never be a sailor because his priorities are all wrong and his thinking is perverse. Fact: Living on the hook is something so valuable as to be worthwhile even if it cost more than living in a Park Avenue penthouse. Fortunately most people are too stupid to realize it and we real sailors mostly have it all to ourselves. We have a better view, a more peaceful existence, a healthier life, a more close- knit community, freedom from taxes, freedom from harassment, freedom from barking dogs, noisy and obnoxious neighbors and freedom to come and go as we please. We live a healthier and more wholesome life and are closer to nature than any city dweller or marina trash. Fact: If you were a sailor you would never have written anything so stupid that proves you unworthy to even comment on us real sailors. S.Simon "JN" wrote in message ... Let's see.

You have to be a real people-hating hermit to live on the hook. There are
many times I enjoy the hell out of my boat that it doesn't leave the dock. I had my boat at home behind my house once, but I missed the dock community and returned. There's nothing like crewing on someone else's boat when it's blowing like hell. There's nothing like half-a-dozen sailors gathering at someone's boat and downing a few while tossing around the bull****. There's nothing like relaxing in the cockpit at dusk enjoying a glass of wine and greeting those returning from a day on the water. And most of all, there's nothing like having somebody to hoist your ass aloft when need be, or to help you get your sails off and folded when a hurricane is barrelling down on you. You can have the hook, I enjoy the company of fellow sailors at the dock. I may not be an expert sailor, but then I never claimed to be one did I? You have and now you have a lot to live up to dimwit. |

LUBBER! Comments interspersed.

There are many times I enjoy the hell out of my boat that it doesn't leave the dock. Whoop-de-doo! Might as well have a Winnebago and hit the campgrounds. I had my boat at home behind my house once, but I missed the dock community and returned. What can I say, trash loves trash! There's nothing like crewing on someone else's boat when it's blowing like hell. Balderdash, people only do that who are too chicken to sail their own boat. They use it as a crutch. There's nothing like half-a-dozen sailors gathering at someone's boat and downing a few while tossing around the bull****. Bunch of drunk trash enjoying the company of other drunk trash. There's nothing like relaxing in the cockpit at dusk enjoying a glass of wine and greeting those returning from a day on the water. And, the're all thinking, "Why doesn't that drunk ever sail his own boat? And most of all, there's nothing like having somebody to hoist your ass aloft when need be, or to help you get your sails off and folded when a hurricane is barrelling down on you. You are so inept you can't handle your own sails or go up the mast without a comittee? Bwahahahahahahahahahah! Loser! You can have the hook, I enjoy the company of fellow sailors at the dock. I may not be an expert sailor, but then I never claimed to be one did I? You have and now you have a lot to live up to dimwit. FELLOW DRUNKS and floating trailer park trash, more like. You are NO SAILOR. You are a pretender and a wannabe whom every real sailor views with disgust. Take a real look at what you're calling sailing. It amounts to you trying to be cool and the center of attention. It only works halfway and that's among halfwits who are just like you - losers, pretenders, wannabes, afraidtobes, who are totally dependent upon others helping them out. Real sailors are independent and need no help to sail their boats, handle their sails, ascend the mast, troubleshoot their systems, travel to foreign countries, enjoy clean water away from marinas where the filth abounds and, and enjoy it all without needing anyone else to know about it. Real sailors are gown-ups who don't need to constantly say by action or word, "Hey, lookit me!!" It's babies like you who never grew out of the playground stage. S.Simon |

Fact: Living on the hook is something so valuable as to
be worthwhile even if it cost more than living in a Park Avenue penthouse. I agree, but not on one of the worst boats ever in a Coronado 27. It's simply far too small to live on, even for Danny Devito's twin, Capt Neal. You have no money. RB |

A Coronado 27 has plenty enough room for one sailorman
and a faithful cat to live in. It has enough carrying capacity for six months cruising if one is willing to collect rain water as the water tankage is good only for a month or so. But, water has yet to be a problem even in the far out islands of the Bahamas. As for money I have done well in the investment of my earnings. Consider that I worked in a job that netted about forty large a year for ten years. Consider that I saved and invested half of that amount, most of it tax deferred (deferred compensation program - sort of like a 401K but for govt. employees). That amounts to 200K which has grown to about 400K over the ten- year period. Also, consider my pension which I can start collecting at full tilt in six more years and Social Security coming up at the same time. That amounts to about 18K per year. Oh, I forgot all about my million dollar inheritance. So, as you can see I can own any sailboat I choose to own. It just so happens I really like my Coronado 27 and have no desire for anything else at this time. The only way I'd consider a bigger boat is if I met an attractive woman of means who wished to become partners in a bigger boat and who wished to go cruising in it. That's not something that's got even a remote possibility of eventuating. There simply aren't enough women out there worthy of me . . . S.Simon Certainly beats your crummy financial outlook, doesn't it? S.Simon "Bobsprit" wrote in message ...

![]() Even if you're telling the truth (which would be the first time) there is a BIG difference between what you made and what you invested. Most Americans save and invest only paltry amounts. I've got a feeling if you made as much money as you claimed last year you would not be so proud of a dry box holding four cheap nav instruments. S.Simon "Bobsprit" wrote in message ...

You should pity the likes of Donal and Scotty instead
of always humiliating them. After all Scotty is a hillbilly whose best possession is an old, rusty, pick-up truck and Donal's wife doesn't let him do anything but work to pay for car insurance rates that are through the roof . . .
