scotts, I was making fun of the ship's deckhand bragging about all the
ports he
had "sailed" to.

What's your point, Jax. There isn't enough bandwidth to list every city
I've
driven to. So?

SV, 1,000,000 accident free miles.

such a limited sailing area.

The old cut and paste hack job. I didn't post those words, Mooron did. I was
one of the first to reply, though.

Bob is terrified to sail into anything.... including a wind over 20 knots
or
out of the bay.

I have seen Bob sailing -- with his girls -- in winds of 30+, and gusting

Wow!

How big were the whitecaps?

you drifted north with the current for a couple hours until the wind filled
back in.

you were a sloop headed north, the race was schooners headed south.

yes, well, we sailed home.

and we were leading and continued to lead.

while at anchor. Yup.

we were the last to anchor and the first to up anchor. The wind failed
from
the north and recovered from the south. The few that didn't anchor were
set
north with the current.
