Why would you eed a watermaker if you didn't need to warrant an extented
range? If you are talking about a watermaker to replace tankage you have
to be considering a 'maker wth a power supply,
correct?

I don't need a watermaker, Thom. It will be removed and sold/traded.

It is not a replacement for cellular service..... not yet.


The boat has nearly 4K worth of recent sat phone gear installed. I can get
service very cheaply through the company I freelance for. What's the problem,
Mooron? A tiny amount of cash in exchange for another level of comunnication is
a bad thing?

People still sail without power,,,,,,,,........
Yes they do. I never stated otherwise. They do it over great distances
but that doesn't mean here isn't a limit on their range. You, my friend
and your Pooka friend contend they have unlimited range. I disagree and
stated why.

It was you and your Pooka that have added other range limiters. Showers
and watermakers do reduce that range or change the sail boat to an Aux.

That doesn't make your statement correct.
Sailboat do have a limited range. It is a very good range but it does
have a limit, is people (crew) is involved.

The only sailboats that don't are the "Ghost Ships" That may be what
your Pooka means:^) He probably talk it over with "Harvey" Do you
suppose that is where the unlimited range came from?

The statement is about sailboats, NOT about the crew. A sailboat has unlimited
range. All other factors, such as crew and what they need are external. The
BOAT has unlimited range.

This is so stupid a statement on your part as to not require a

response
Bill.!


Just goes to show you where billbobs head is.

You would know "Pooka Bill" You're a creation of his strange (sic)

Mind.

Did he do the race or not.



That was my question, which he conveniently sidestepped.

It's only a waste of space if you don't like a nice hot shower

aboard. You
could also make the case that most of the berths on board are a

waste of space
as well.



They are, for daysailors like you.
