Are voting for Captain? Then we should pick someone that
knows something about sailing. I vote for Doug.

Note that this group has now returned to sailing discussions now that I've
returned.
There is no doubt that I'm the captain & leader of this group and that it
swirls out of control when I'm off for a season of sailing. Look at the
threads!!! Mostly sailing related now!

Welcome back to me!!!!

Alt.Sailing.Asa Captain

I second that vote.

Well, if I had managed to object in time, I would decline... but so be it.

My first official act is to double everybody's taxes... You must each
send me a bottle of rum every week. Alternative minimum tax is a bottle
of Irish whiskey every three weeks. The penalty for non-payment is that
I come to visit.

To do that you'll need to post your address on the ng....my share of the
taxes will be forthcoming as soon as you do that...

Bart,

You mean the "Doug" that recommends a Boom like a Grove Crane and a
Rigid Vang to match??

Spare Me :^)

You mean the "Doug" that moved up from a trailable Hunter to a full
blown Power Boat???

I'd rather have a Sailor :^p~~..

Well Bart, this is a Democratic Group. You can ship out with any Skipper
You Choose;

Bon Voyage :^))

For shame, Thomas Stewart... I never thought I would see the day that you
would denigrate any person who SAILS any type of boat (other than nutsy...)
Doug has proven time and time again that he has more than adequate knowledge
of sailing. Just because you disagree on technical things here and there
does not mean he is not just as well received a sailor as any of the rest of
us (except nutsy...). So it's water for you, bucko...DRINK THAT!

Which Doug is that? I believe it was Navvie who was trying to claim that
an "I" section boom would be stronger, it was Capt Mooron who said that
cranes never had their booms & rams set up in similar geometry to solid
vangs, and was Scotty who proved they do in fact.

As opposed to your motorsailer?

Maybe he means the Doug who owned & raced custom 2-Tonner before he had
the trailerable Hunter... surely you're not falling into Boobsie's folly
of thinking that having the biggest boat means the best sailor? If that
were true I believe Bart would win... although maybe Oz1's fleet would
count for more...

I can't keep track, this newsgroup needs a Prime Minister. I nominate
Katysails. Ol' Thom can be the Minister of Liquid Resources.

Hey Doug,

That Storm heading for you looks bad!
Sail or power,man and beast looks like they better head for secure cover

What a time to get promoted to Capt. Good luck, old friend

We're in one of the best places to be for many miles around. If you
happen to pick up a copy of this months "Passagemaker" magazine, there's
an article in it about hurricane preparation that features our marina.

Thank you... about this time of year I reflect on how nice it would be
to live in a place where hurricanes are not such a threat. I couold sure
live with early sunsets, for example!
