This is true. So, who will you become and shall I rename myself too (How
about 'Salty')? Then we can really talk about lovely sailing! I'll even
tell you about the impromptu race we won last weekend against a
formidable fleet leaving the same harbour after the long weekend! It was
15-25 knots at 40-70 deg app with our boat speed of up to 8.6 knots. It
took us 1 hour to pass one of our sister boats to windward. It was great
watching her roll to at least 45 in the swell and sea and realize we
must be doing the same! We had a couple of lovely evenings after 20-30
mile sails with great wine and a few DVD's. Sleep was broken only by the
dawn chorus and the cats asking us to get up and play.

Certainly. There are people in this NG who don't care about sailing or

people who enjoy it. Unless THEY will talk about sailing I'll have

nothing to

I was steering a reasonably straight course. The projected track took us
0.4 nm east of a nasty reef.

The character of "BOBSPRIT" is no more.

Nothing more needs to be said.

Are you having yet another "hissy fit"?

Don't go out like a big fairy wimp!

Look, I'm really sorry that I haven't been able to get wound up over
Beneteau floorboards recently. I've been tired recently, and I haven't been
up to my usual performance levels. I'll try harder. I promise!


Don't go! Please!! If you stay, then I promise that I will get really
*mad* every time that you mention a Beneteau's cabin sole.


I've managed to do it for the last three years. If you give me another
chance, I'm sure that I can do it for another three years!!


Regards

Donal, I'm not leaving. But I'm done with all of the silly low-brow in
fighting, mainly because it's too easy and too boring to continue with. We all
basically repost the same tired trolls and jabs. Snore.
I'd really like to discuss sailing topics of any sort.

The main was down on the traveller. Letting the main out more only
slowed the boat. The #2 was up and no one else had reefs. The swell was
about 2m and quatering. The roll was impressive but the angle was wrong
to get real surfing action. Helm was quite neutral except when rolling
hard over. What would you do?
