Who? Donald with the squeaky sole?


My guess is "squeaky soul" is more like it. Donald loves this attention.

there is a hunter moored next to my pearson
the damn thing has never left its mooring and each time i am aboard my boat
i've noticed that this hunter with its enormous freeboard and resultant
windage, is always sailing or on the edge of sailing about its mooring.
strange sight and really pretty scary
bridle is always twisted 20 times around itself
but with every gadget known to man aboard the owner is in love with her
i think after this season i'm moving my mooring.

Meanwhile, Hunter has improved quality, but still insists on making boats

that
are just plain butt ugly. From their smallest to their largest, I can't

imagine
who would be attracted to these things. It sure isn't sailors.

A computer is optional for most sailors, but it depends a lot on what

they're
using it for. I don't bother for most cruises, but if I'm out for more

than a
few weeks I certainly carry one. Some sailors use them for navigation,

others
for photography, and everyone here uses one for email.

But a pliers? Are you saying the a sailor shouldn't have a pliers

onboard?

A pliers is used when the correct spanner isn't available.

It will usually cause damage to any nut that it is applied to.


I do have a pliers aboard - however I try to avoid using it.

I use mine for the dvd player, at least until the mosquitoes quit for the
night.

Do you use a
hammer to tie your shoes?


Donald certainly avoids the complexity of laces.

I take care of ALL of my tools and equipment. You and the Crapton are
poor sailors if you treat ANY of your tools and equipment carelessly.
If you have a motor, or a pair of pliers or a laptop computer,



So, BB, you think that a Real sailor would have pliers and a computer
aboard, do you?

You are about as much of a sailor as Bobsprit is!




Hey Donal! I must be doing something right, Chuckles seems to get his oversized knickers
in a knot every time I post!

Cheers
Marty
