and my point that real sailors don't live up north.

I think Joe enjoys seeing them suffer as well as he sure
likes to egg them on . . . Such luxuries as we real southern
sailors enjoy are priceless.

Judging from the perpetuation of mindless, worthless, senseless threads
in ASA, it would appear that old man winter has done his damage to this
body of northern sailors. Spring isn't far away, to be sure, but cabin
fever generally exacts its greatest toll just before the weather breaks.

Buck up, mates, for better times aren't far off.

Which happens to be one month longer than our winter season, November to
March.

Katy, Hurricane season is enjoyable if you own the proper boat and know
how to weather any storm. Its not like you have to worry about getting
flooded. It may be a bad time for lubbers but a nice warm place to live
is worth the risk. Ive been thru 5-6 hurricanes and only had one item
trashed, a 22' camper on jacks rolled across the lawn. My fault.I was
offshore and did not have it properly secured. You know the news people
look for the worst to show you Yankee's on TV.

If you don't get hit by a hurricane.

Remember, a hurricane only lasts 12 hours, maybe less. Of course, the
preparation takes a day or two and the clean-up can take longer, but not
every place gets a hurricane every year. You can't say the same about
winter!

... if you own the proper boat and know

Yeah, right. There certainly is such a thing as being prepared, but if a
Cat 5 hurricane nails you, you're lucky to be alive. Or if a neighbors
less-well-prepared boat slams into yours, blowing debris, etc etc.

... You know the news people

Sure. They do the same for winter storms up north. It's their job, man.

Happened to friends in Punta Gorda. The neighbors allowed a 50'
sportfisherman to raft alongside their 30' sailboat. Of course they both
parted their lines and found their way to our friends' Catalina 34.

Like Andrew, for instance?

Right. Only piled up on the mountain of debris that was previously
watercraft along the shoreline.

Iraq is nice and warm. Worth the risk?

Perhaps, but it really DOES look bad. I was especially fond of the guy
doing a live shot when a sailing sheet of metal blasted him into the next
county. Or was that on that silly "Day After Tomorrow" movie?
