Tell us again about your close relationship with your chickens. Are you
talking about your chicken hawks??? Bwahahahaaaa..... -- "j" ganz @@ www.sailnow.com "Capt. Mooron" wrote in message news:hzLWd.17328$fc4.2462@edtnps89... Oh Yeah..... now there's an intelligent rebuttal!! Bwahahahahahahahahahaaaa..... Jon... you're a Homo! CM "JG" wrote in message ... The whole point, you stupid fool, is that you're a creep. Why don't you tell us again about your relationship with your chickens. -- "j" ganz @@ www.sailnow.com "Capt. Mooron" wrote in message news:mszWd.3192$ZO2.2860@edtnps84... The whole point of the matter... you brain dead little Homo... is that different situations require different approaches. A basic logic you continuously fail to grasp... which of course leaves you with a litany of dragging and failed sets. Until you've operated a 30 ft full keel without any auxcillry for a year... you might have sufficient capacity to broach the topic of ground tackle, kedging and setting anchor undersail with me. If I elect to utilize my auxiliary to secure my set.... it's because I can.... to ignore that option out of some deluded sense of sailing purity... and then piously motor to your dock under the misconception you are a competent, skilled and capable sailor.... illustrates how idiotic your position is on the subject. CM "JG" wrote in message ... Well, wouldn't the wind or tide give you that? Why use the engine if you don't have to? Of course, Mooron has to, but... -- "j" ganz @@ www.sailnow.com "otnmbrd" wrote in message ink.net... Some anchoring points from "My" perspective...,... Sometimes, all that's needed to get a recalcitrant anchor to fetch up, is to add some scope .... haven't got a clue as to why, your experience may vary. When anchoring, always try to have at least 1-2k of sternway (backing at 1800 seems excessive, but waddahey, whatever works). When the anchor fetches the line/chain will go taut and then slowly slack off, but if it hasn't, it may go taut, slack, taut, etc.. When heaving an anchor, once the anchor is aweigh, if your chain/line is led over a roller, or through a hawse pipe, the chain/line will wabble from the roller/HP, down. EG Some tidbits of potentially useless information. otn |
