I'm not on anyone's side...

I look out for myself... the rest of you are on your own.

My advise would be to make friends and allys prior to crossing swords with
me!

[How's that for a dash of blatant arrogance? :-P]

Kinda lame. I expect better from you.
You're not mad at me because I proved you wrong in the ''Boom''
thread, are you?

Friggin' critics on the rag...

Nah..... I don't get mad Scotty..... you didn't prove my argument
wrong... just a portion of my rebuttal proved to be not as airtight as
expected. This is a good thing .:-P~~

Nonetheless.... my point of view regarding the topic remains solid.

Pah!

You are far too *nice* to be arrogant!

I also suspect that you are a little bit afraid to upset the big hitters.

You never insult Oz, Nav or Wally. Also, I'm a bit suspicious about your
lily livered attacks on the resident fattie from New York!

In fact, I can't remember when you last delivered a good insult to me......
Chicken!

Thank You Donal... that was quite civil... for a change!

Do Tell.... Who might they be?

Both Oz & Nav have been not only insulted but put to run like the curs they
are by me at one time or another.
I like Wally..... he's got potential to achieve great status here with some
work. No need to shake the tree just yet.

Please Donal... considering the grade of invective from you and the sum
total of your rhetorical abilities..... it would be like spanking a child.

Feel Better Now? :-)

So, you did a sea trial on your C&C 32?

Sorry about that, had the post minimzed when I replied. Sailing a C&C 32 is
not a "sea trial" of the boat you purchased, unless the boat you purchased
is the one you sailed. There is only one kind of "sea trial" when you're
referring to the purchase of a used sailboat, it is a test sail with an
inspection of the particular boat
you're considering buying. Period. Really, even you should be able to figure
that one out. If you're going to play expert you need to UNDERSTAND the
terminology, otherwise you merely come off as ignorant

This might help, a good definition of what a "sea trial" entails.

he 'tried out' the 'bed' (as he called it). That was all he needed,
that and good dock lines.

There is only one kind of "sea trial", it involves sailing and inspecting
