If solid water didn't pour into the hatch, or at least over the

coaming,
then it wasn't a REAL knockdown.


Does flipping a beach cat count?

I guess... I've done that more times than I can count. It's not a lot
of fun when you get pounded with waves after it flips.

Just wondering... the worst I've been in was having the main touch the
water when we got hit with small whirlywind coming from a marsh.
Popped right back up, and it didn't even disturb the beer in my hand.


Several, but not on anything bigger than a 30 footer.

Lost a steering cable and hit a bouy and capsized a Navy launch in
Deigo Garcia.

Blown down so many times on my 13ft LaBrisa I lost count. Most times
ended up capsized if the water was deep enough.

Pitch poled a Hobie in the surf at Galveston once, tore the rigging
and mast off, and pitch poled several small boats in the surf off
Point Loma.

Capsized& pichpoled at the same time surfing ship wakes in the houston
ship channel on a 12ft punt with a 15hp outboard.

Almost capsized a 110 ft crewboat doing 20kts off the SW pass of the
Mississippi. I messed up caculating specific gravity of the fluid in 2
tanks on deck. That was the scariest!!!!

Have had the rails of redCloud in the water a few times but we were
racing so that dont count.

Oh yeah, I do that all the time, don't I?

Yep. But it's not usually called "plywood."


Sorry to hear about your unhappy marriage. Katy seems to think your
wife has worms. Maybe that's why she is an unwilling spouse...

Boobsie-Bob, you're sad. And I'm done for now, which will make you even
sadder.

Even when corrected, Doug still can't fess up. What an ass.
Bill you have to remember that Doug was once the "proud" owner of a Hunter 19,
a boat arguably less attractive than a Mac26M. The poor clown now sails a
trawler.
The poor fool also thinks we are one in the same. I actually amazed that he
somehow reasoned out that Bush lied.

Hard to tell with the hat she's wearing. Who's the dude with the sunglasses?

You love to run around calling anyone you don't agree with a "sock
puppet". It carries no weight, especailly since it is abundantly clear
that you aren't computer literate enough to be able to make such a
determination.


Your "sock puppet" status is not related to computer literacy. You appear
to be a sock puppet because you don't seem to have any opinions of your own.

Everything that you post could have been written by Bob. Of course, a
clever sock-puppet would manage to differentiate himself from his master.

master.

especially when his master's an idiot.


You may be an idiot, Scotty Potti, but you're most certainly walked by your own
dog!

Donald proves he is yet one more nitwit who throws around terms without
knowing
what they mean.


The man owns a Beneteau. Ask him what he had before that. I dare you!
