Kook doesn't like Levis. They are not designer you know.

LP, on the other hand, has no hope of ever comprehending me.


Anyone?

Why? Let them make the choice, which is what I gathered Bart did from
his post. These women decided to go sailing, for whatever reason, and
you assume that all social problems ensuing must be Bart's fault.

Being a native Southerner, I take hospitality seriously. But there are
reasonable limits, especially in a sporting activity engaged in by
mutual consent. By analogy, if I was going mountain climbing and some
friends of friends and wanted to tag along, I would do my best to not
let them fall... but I wouldn't feel an obligation to glue a pillow to
each and every rock...

Some boats carry this type of sail all around the course. A few years
back I watched some Windrider Raves (a small foil riding trimaran)
racing, the ones equipped with screechers carried them up wind, much
faster at a lower angle, and beat the ones without quite handily.

That'll be foils not performing at low speed?

About half the ones without screechers were up on their foils most of
the time. Part of the issue was that the screechers made accelerating
out of tacks *much* quicker. But the tacking angles were very wide, some
boats that deliberately sailed high & slow were quite close in the hunt
(among the non-screecher boats).

It was interesting to watch, I would have liked to try racing one of
these boats.

hey Wally, I see lots of water in your paintings, why no sailboats?

It's never occurred to me to include some - maybe they're a bit worldly
for
what I'm about with the paintings.

That sounds a bit political to me. Are you a leftie?

Do you hope to sell any paintings for lots of dosh?


Why don't you do a painting that involves sailing - for the newsgroup?
We've had poetry and music. I think that we are ready for some art!!!

IIRC, you can use a spinnaker to sail upwind but must not tack with

What do you know? I always use a spinnaker upwind, and also two

He doesn't have to impose it on us now, does he?

Lands End,,, funny name for jeans.

When I was in grad school, I had a female classmate who wore them all
the time. She was known as no-man's land. Too bad...
