Mooring? I keep my boat in a slip in Sausalito. I teach there
as well as on a lake.

Do you teach anything besides fudge packing?





Pathetic Earthlings! No one can save you now!

Since you seem to be an expert, perhaps you would
care to enlighten us... on second thought, don't.

Ah.... well, I don't sail backwards on a mooring. I saw a guy try that
once in Cane Garden Bay, BVI. Actually, he was trying to position
his boat to watch the sunset. He attached the mooring line to a stern
cleat, then proceeded to get it caught between the rudder and the
keel. We helped him get it uncaught, then he honored us with Don
Perion and letting us look at his very hot, bikinied girlfriend.

We were there a couple of trips ago and the idiot next to us on a mooring
tossed an anchor over the stern. In the morning after spinning around
countless times during the night he had everything really twisted up. He saw
we had diving gear on deck and called us on the radio and asked if we would
dive down and untangle everything. It was pretty rough and I didn't want to
get an anchor chain slammed into my face so I told him to call his charter
company.

Didn't it occur to him to just turn his head? Much simpler method.

He was a powerboater... didn't know squat about sailboats. I was
surprised that the Moorings let him have the boat. I guess they
figured he would motor the whole time.
