You are far from alone in that observation.


True. Lots of people just don't know squat about boats.

I think that Doctors who make mistakes should be subjected to serious
verbal
abuse. What do you think?


Some do . . . in court. Then again there is a difference between
*negligence* and making a mistake. Human beings make mistakes, and doctors
are human. Malpractice cases should ideally be decided on the basis of
negligence, but typically the one with the deepest pockets loses. That's
always the doctor.

Max speaks from experience. He doesn't know squat.

Maxipad is still bitter about his mother.

In fact, I remember you doing that... it was a C&C 27?


Yep. C&C 27-5.


Roughly comparable to a Coronado 27. How nice.

I'm currently on the market for a decent Passport 40,


Yeah, sure . . .

but so far
the ones I've looked at were, shall we say, problematic and over priced.


Read: "I can't afford one."

I'll be
keeping the C&C for local summer sailing close to home. The new boat will
stay
somewhere warm as our winter headquarters.


Bobsprit by any other name . . . . smells as foul.

With Maxipad, everything is humiliating.

I have, in the past, posted pictures of my boat. I'm so sorry you
missed them! I really don't give a crap whether you think I have a
boat. Crapton's cedar bucket is more of a boat (and a genuine stink
pot at that!) than anything you own.


If you're so confident about that, you'll have no problem providing me
with a website where I can post a photo or two of my boat. Warning: be
prepared to be humiliated.

Half of all sailing errors are a direct result of people panicking.
Most try to remember the "rules" and forget to use common sense.
Then you must remember that the guy facing you may not have any clue.
It is disappointing that most people these days don't take the time to lean
the basics.

I can't help but notice how our part-time Canadian sailor is too
chicken to answer the COLREGs questions.

You can't even afford your own website? You can get one FREE, dopey.


You must be Ganz. Last person, beyond Jon, who used the word "dopey" was a
third grader.

Besides,
I've already seen a photo of Crapton's cedar bucket. If you owned a 65
foot
Hinckley, the fact that YOU owned it would still give the edge to Crappy's
bucket. It's far too late for you to start preparing for humiliation. It
already
happened.


That's a lot of bluster from one with such a small . . . . boat. Must be a
case of yacht envy.

Nah. Contrary to what BB the Bilgehog believes, it's just not worth the
effort. Some seem to have the need to post themselves for all to see. I
couldn't care less. I'd email him some photos, but I'm sure he accuse me of
sending him a virus. Which isn't a half bad idea, come to think of it.
