Default Engines on sailboats, When? When Not?

"Michael" wrote in message ...
1 When to use them:

3. Add your own reasons. In the end they will always be 'your own
reasons.'

M.



Tieing up to a platform offshore to fish
Man overboard
7 knot current in a river
PTO for the big pump
towing
un-grounding
RIATM
watermaker
narrow jetties with big waves on the bow
going to slow to troll for King Mackerels
to slow to drag the shrimp net
in a channel full of fools
In a channel with ships that might suck you into them


When not to: When you can do everything you need to do with wind and sail alone
When you remember that you just spent close to 500 dollars fueling up.
