Try again, jaxie, the rules are pretty clear that you have to be using the
engine for propulsion.

From Rule 3, Definitions:
(b) The term “power-driven vessel” means any vessel propelled by machinery;
(c) The term “sailing vessel” means any vessel under sail provided that
propelling machinery, if fitted, is not being used;

you'll never get an answer from the CG.



ain't no "grey area" at all. your engine is running you are a powerboat,
neutral or not.

the cat just died a couple of months ago.
i suspect from boredom reading all the poltical posts:
hence "a dog"

A cat. A week is a long time - we leave our cats for 3-4 days. Longer

than
that we have a friend or neighbor drop by just to make sure they didn't

lock
themselves in a closet.

If we go sailing for more than about 4 days they come with us.

The dog, however, can't be left unattended for more than 8 hours, and even
that's a stretch.


one that is protective of place and can do something about it would help
keep in mind, it needs to be an urban kind of dog (whatever that means)
space ain't an issue--i live/work in a loft--figure it can get its

exercise
by running the length of this place
if it likes the water and goes sailing all the better.

how about a dog rental program for a month at a time?


Find a neighbor with a dog that travels and needs a dog-sitter.

What? You're naming a local feature (that appears on any chart) to try to
convince us you've been there??? Only someone who has never been there would
bother doing something as silly as that!

I have been there.

so many times I don't even have to guess where the "Cuban Ledge" is.

actually, jeffies, the engine is NOT the determining factor.

people show ply the waters of the Sound know that. It is, after all, on the
charts.

you kidding? the size of that thing makes it impossible not to notice.

Even more so than a tug with a barge in tow all lit up at night.
