You have to gay up every thread, don't you?





Pathetic Earthlings! No one can save you now!

I'm just trying to be helpful. I didn't realize you think
tampons are define gayness. I thought they were
used for plugging holes, and didn't contemplate
until now how you might use them to do that sort
of thing. YUCK!

Wipes! You know, baby wipes or
something similar. I've been out several times and thought it would be great
to have several boxes for light clean-up, always manage to forget to bring a
box or two.

Wipes also come in soft side packages which are much easier to cram into a
seabag than a box, and much easier to throw in a net over your bunk....I
keep them aboard all the time and they are very useful fo a lot of different
reasons...

Sounds like a great trip. I've heard it claimed that Polar Fleece is the one
technology most responsible for the recent boom in long distance racing.

Planning on leaving in the next 2 weeks for an offshore north
Atlantic passage aboard a friends boat.

Having never done this before, I'm looking for advice, links, etc. on what I
should be bringing.

I'm anticipating the possibility of cold wet and fog.
(sounds like fun, eh?)

for clothing, thinking layers of polar fleece in addition to foul weather
gear.

The trip should be about 2 weeks there and back.

usually travel light and would expect everything to happen in one backpack
so what do you view as essential that i can add to my list?

any/all pearls of wisdom are appreciated.


Gf.

in the event anyone is interested: http://www.novascotia.com/tallships/

been sailing for about 12 years and this will be the first offshore
experience for me.
admittingly a bit axnious................too much to do to clear off the
work pile.
anxious clients also...oh well.

have heard similar..so polar fleece it is

Silk underwear...silk socks...silk dries very quickly but still wicks
moisture away from your body and makes a thin, warm barrier....and yes,
Land's End and LL Bean carry men's silkies....

Clearly, Fishboy is quite familiar with their use. Good for her, I mean
him.
