I'll be honest. I think the NG had become really boring and I was not
going to post here. But I was encouraged not to abondon you all so I
though I'd try to get you all going a bit and it worked! Can you not see
how the level of interest has climbed again and how much more sailing
related chat is going on? If you do not want that then just tell me to
leave and I will -I can respect your judgement on this.

Cheers

Wow! That's a 12,000 mile backpedal! Don't hurt yourself, Nav.

You're the one who said "You do know she's motoring?" Are you claiming

that

because there's a tow boat a mile or so away she's actually motoring?

Nav,

You're Nutz!

You're showing your ignorance yet again, Navvie.

The USS Constitution does not have an engine.


No kidding? I guess that means they won't need your 'sailing' expertise.
But the engine is on another boat that always shadows her.



Dead wrong, nav. I was there. She was free of her tow lines.

Admittedly, it


was the first time in over 100 years, and may be the last, but she was

sailing


on here own, without a tow, for about an hour.

Sorry jeff I don't see how anything I posted was wrong -unless you are
denying the motor boat -her primary source of propulsion was not in
attendence.
