Default I'm Soooo Sorry!

Can't figure out
why we'd drop the main and loaf along under the genoa, hmmm?


no, not really.


Well, try sailing sometime and you might find cause to drop the main for a
while....such as BBQing, better done on a slow moving or anchored vessel!

Busted AGAIN, Spirt!!! Do you have a monthly pass for the ferry?

BTW, that shot was also made shooting through my very expensive Serrengetti
sailing sunglasses.

While underway? No wonder you were so worried about fires aboard. In any
event, no excuse for not putting a tie on the main, but what do you know
anyway. Nice sunset, tho.

Actually, we sometimes just anchor. But it was pretty light out. Still, it's
easier to cook and use the cockpit without the boom tacking back and forth.
Pretty simple if you actually cook and sail a lot, which we do...and Scotty
Potty clearly doesn't!

Why do I need a tie on the main? 20 minutes after the pic was taken it was up
again. A difference that makes no differerence IS NO difference.

20 minutes? Very poor seamanship!

Yes, I agree. That boomy thing tacking back and forth is a real pain.
