Jon,
Picky, picky!!!! Read the rest of the report. Would you have let a screwed up lock on a winch handle ruin that trip? Use your brain for something more than negative thoughts. Look at that bank of winches. Do you really think Scotty isn't going to get that handle out of there. A Jammed handle and a coil of line that size is a temporary thing. At best!! Ole Thom |

"Joe" wrote Hey Scotty Great sounding and looking trip. I agree that fall is the best time of year to sail. Yes sir, best sailing and sleeping weather! Good fishing and the Harvest moon week. We are going to go out to the edge of the Gulf stream and troll for King Makerel, Ling, Tuna,Dolphin ect soon. Did you ever get out of the site of land? No. Had to scrap that plan. Maybe next year. Is mundo really a bully and an ass? No, he's a sweetheart of a guy, fed me and even did my laundry for me. Thought so. Hows Seahags wooden leg project going? Not so good, evertime she's just about done with it, the dog carries it off and buries it, or drops it in the water. Mr hag needs a shaper knife to whittle faster I guess. I just got back from a road trip. Went to Oklahoma and bought a 1961 Ford Econoline pickup that was sitting in a barn since 81. It was a bitch on the highway with the granny gears.... 500 miles at 53 MPH..But hey nothing is going to catch it in the 1/4 mile run. Still all original.. even the paint. http://www.lovefords.org/galleries/m...ry_special.jpg I seem to remember you have a classic truck right? Ugh! those things are UGLY. There's one around here, I thought the guy made it himself from an Econoline van. Well coming from a squirty cheese chef I will take your UGLY discription with a grain of salt. I have a '53 Chevy PU. Haven't touched it since I got the boat. To many irons in the fire? Scotty Joe |

One can bury the rail in relatively light wind if you try. High winds could easily pick up the line don't you think? I'm not trying to make something out of nothing.

Hey Scott,
If you're going to get another handle, I'd like to suggest a floater. That is what I did about 4 years ago. It is a little longer and painted Red. My crew always looks for that handle, we haven't lost a handle since. In calm conditions I've used it for a MOB drill. It sharpens the look-outs eyes and the crews response now that thet know th replacement cost. Ole Thom |

2nd gay response without an answer
gf. "Jonathan Ganz" wrote in message ... Thom, you're not thinking clearly. If you're sailing and you need to start the engine, then you discover there's a line in the water, you could be in trouble. It's not a matter of hanging there or being underfoot. Neither is acceptable. I've seen them come out. I've seen people fall on winches, but never on the handles (because they were removed). -- "j" ganz @@ www.sailnow.com "Thom Stewart" wrote in message ... Jon, Not thinking to well. If there is that much line on the handle the Main must be up. If it is up, probably means your sailing. (No engine) Line over the side should be no problem. better than walking over it in the cockpit or getting your feet tangled in it I'm inclined to agree with you about the handle left in the winch. I was taught that, but that was about Sheet winches, which are more active winches. It has carried over on to all winches. In all honesty,Jon, I've lost more handles in the act off inserting and removing them from the winches. In fact, in 58 years of sailing I can't remember ever losing a winch handle any other way. Can you? I've lost my share of them too!! Ole Thom |

Yeah Scott,
Jon is talking about a Jib winch for a 150 Genny, with a non-locking winch handle fouled in a sheet line, on a non-tailing winch. Actually he's never really seen it, just heard about it, somewhere, and taken it for his own experience. He is correct though, I have to admit, it is a lot better than a damn political post.

Scott Vernon wrote: So, Jon, where do you stow your winch handles? SV In the winch... just kidding. We have pockets for them. Mostly, we try not to use them except when raising sails. I teach on a 30' boat (mostly) and I try to get students to think ahead; thus, there's little need for a handle unless it's a trim issue. We typically don't use a handle when tacking. Sometimes when gybing, but not always. Depends on the conditions. -- Jonathan Ganz (j gan z @ $ail no w.c=o=m) http://www.sailnow.com "If there's no wind, row." |
