Okay.... I'm taking a quick poll to see if Bob is the only poster here with
such a limited sailing area.

Please just give us an idea of where you've sailed, lakes, oceans, bays,
countries...... I'll start:

Great Slave Lake, NWT
Hudson's Bay - Rankin Yacht Club
Beaufort Sea - Tuktoyaktuk
Bahamas, Eluthra, & Exuma Cays
British Virgin Islands - all of it
Jamaica - Montego Bay to Negril
Brasil - Florinopolis to Bombinas and Porto Alegra /Recife
American Samoa - Pago Pago Yacht Club
Western Samoa - Upolu to Savai'i
Tonga - Am Samoa to Tonga return [ Pago-Vava'u]
British Columbia
Nova Scotia
New Brunswick
Prince Edward Island
Ontario
Quebec

I know it's not a lot and many have sailed more areas.... but compared to
Bob.... !!!?????
I mean let's face it... Bob hasn't even done a basic BVI trip on a charter
boat!!!
Bob can't use a Radar
Bob can't navigate
Bob can't sail into a slip

Bob does try though.... lame as those attempts are in his very limited world
of sail.

Well, you have me beat but comparing yourself to Bob isn't raising the bar
that high. I mentioned it before but one of the guys on the Atlantic
crossing keep his boat on the Hudson north of NYC and from what he told me
he's covered more of LIS in his boat than Bob has. I think Bob's an
aberration as far as the ng's concerned.

We'll see how it goes - the plan for this season is to build experience by
crewing on the Sonata, while I work on my own boat. Once Hispaniola goes in,
I'll be looking to get into some cruising. (Can't do cruising other than
daysails on the Sonata because the skipper's wife is poorly and he can't be
away from home for too long.)

Excellent.... a true test of skill for a newbie.


That's what I like about the place - loads of variety in a small area. The
last two weekends have been flat calm, hot sun, bit of sea breeze one day;
strong winds, lumpy chop and pishin' rain the other. Last Saturday, we had a
'new boy' dinghy sailor as stand-in crew - we were short-handed - he was
decidedly unwell (and lacking a clue, considering he's done more RYA dinghy
training than me). He didn't come back for the suntan, slow drift and
cancelled races the following Sunday...

Not this week! :-) But I'm up for that sort of gubbins when I have the sort

Oh, for sure. I'm comfortable with map&compass work on land, so it seems
only right to learn the 'trade' on water as well.

He's still to show us his spinnaker doing something more exciting than
hanging out to dry in 2 knots... I suppose he's trying to toughen up his
crew of waifs and strays before they risk hoisting it in 3!

Indeed - I don't mind a bit of splashing and spray. It's certainly less of a
drag than using a dinghy as a diving board. Still, when you've been racing
all day and have an hour or two of chop to plough through in a 22-footer,
you can get too much of a good thing. There are times when it's nice to sit
in the foulies and watch the cotton-clad hero sitting next to you get a

On hot days my wife sits at the bow and points out the biggest waves to

Mooron's implication, correctly or incorrectly, appears to be that Bob is an
inferior sailor due to his lack of experience sailing in varied venues. If
you read my post again, carefully, you'll note that my only mention of Bob
was along similar lines, that he has very limited experience sailing in
different venues, indeed, based on what Pat told me during our passage, he
seems to have very little experience cruising in his "home" waters, which is
somewhat ironic given his past claims that he doesn't work a 9-5 job, and
was single up until fairly recently. Both of these facts should have allowed
Bob to do an extensive amount of cruising, which by his own admission, he
hasn't. You might also note that I made no value judgment, only that Bob's
lack of cruising experience is an aberration in this ng, I still believe
this statement to be correct. In a sarcastic reply you imply that my friend
Pat is an inferior sailor, as proof you offer the fact that he's done more
cruising in LIS than Bob. So where does that leave Bob? Is Bob a grossly
inferior sailor because he hasn't done much cruising in his home waters, or
in any other areas?

You won't Wally.... he sails an Irwin 30 and that is an embarrassment in
itself. Jaxxie is a salesman... he used to sell computers and then cars.If
you ask someone here might provide you with some of his pictures he posted
on the web of himself. It was hilarious. He even complained to Donal's
ISP... but didn't realize it was actually Donal he was writing the letter
to. Real Genious material there.
