Best Medical Booze aboard
What do you think would be the best medical booze to have onboard for
emergencys? Like a hook in the hand, a few stitches, setting a broken arm ect... I wish I had used the bacarrdi 151 instead of waiting and going to the hospital ER late at night when I had a hook in my thumb, the hook entered at the quick and wanted to poke out of the knuckle but did not break thru the skin, i tried like hell to pull it on thru but couldent get it thru because the pain almost made me passout, seems booze is an excellent way to ignore pain in a fix. The ER shot it up with novacane and used pliers to pull it thru. 385 dollars. If your a few days offshore with a simple accident a bottle would be nice 151 is strong but whats better? Were is ol Thom when ya need him......... Joe MSV RedCloud |

Peppermint Schnaps, Wild Turkey, or any decent rum.

Peppermint Schnaps, Dont think so, you would be sick before numb. Wild Turkey, Maybe, but really not enough kick. or any decent rum. Yeah, but getting numb fast might require 151 or better.

It's damn hard to take more than one, but after the second,
you can't remember what the problem was.... -- "j" ganz @@ www.sailnow.com "Joe" wrote in message om... "Jonathan Ganz" wrote in message ...

Joe,
Wasn't going to answer that one but as you asked:--- I keep a 1/2 Gal of medium priced Canadian Whisky in the Nav Station Locker. All my crew know its there but I don't allow a free bar while sailing. I'm the only one allowed to pour under way (Been known to sweeten coffee now and then) That is my boat booze and when the boat is docked and put to bed, the bottle is fair game for a single round and other than that its only for emergences. It is unbelievable how many poisonous snaes get aboard that damn vessel!!! Ole Thom |

Jon,
My rule for drinking is: "Like tits on a woman; One not enough and three to many." Let's; "Drink to That!" Ole Thom |

All my crew know its there but I don't allow a free bar while sailing. Wuss! I keep an open bottle of Smirnoff, and an open bottle of Capt. Morgan, and all the beer the cooler will hold. Any of the crew can help themselves to whatever they want. And I've won more racing trophies than anyone here. Good man, Horvath! I was beginning to think that all Americans were wimps. I keep various drinks aboard.... I don't encourage the consumption of alcohol whilst underway, but once we are tied up I expext the crew to "relax". When I say "relax" I do *not* mean one or two drinks. I mean that we stay up until the small hours, solving the world's problems. Regards Donal -- |
