Ya know I havent read your posting lately with this invasion of flonk
rabbits or whatever and your whipping up on katy for snitchin on ya for acting like an asshole. But your right I think famous people die in groups of three as well. Not sure if that lawyer is one, will we know by tommorow. So....Whats does LP look like? Joe |
I might be prone to discuss this topic with anyone having a clue as to
sailing..... or experience and ability with vessels... but several factors currently inhibit my ability to describe my opinion of your sailing ability. Since I can ill afford to be subject to another "abuse" complaint from you Jon..... let's just leave this subject alone and I'll refer my comments to people that can be trusted to engage in a sailing related thread without the consequences of being "reported" when my opinion differs from theirs. May I state in parting that the last "Picture Show" presented by you on your trip to the BVIs ... spelled volumes about what you consider a challenge..... It was an exercise in narcolepsy..... CM "JG" wrote in message ... You have no idea of the level of skill required to sail in SF area, especially the north bay. It is not quite true that if you can sail here, you can sail anywhere, but it's almost true. We sail pretty much all year here, except during major storms. (100 mph has been recorded on Angel Island during a storm.) The current, tides, and traffic (from tankers to kayaks) make for uninterrupted variation from day to day. I have no doubt that your much larger double ender wouldn't have a problem with waves like these or larger. The person in question was on a much smaller boat. I doubt you would do as well in the same conditions on the same boat. Sure, he screwed up by sailing there in the first place, but at least he gets out and sails. -- "j" ganz @@ www.sailnow.com "Capt. Mooron" wrote in message news:mKG4e.3873$vt1.1415@edtnps90...

I understand the Leopard Seal is the top predator in the Antarctic... can you clarify that? Well, except when I'm about, yes. Them and killer whales. AFAIK, tho, there's never been a *proven* attack by a killer whale on a human, which means either they don't do it or they're smart enough to not get caught. Leopard seals have attacked & killed humans. More territorial than food, I suspect, never really looked into it. Hope you get to splash Overproof soon.

So, what you're saying is that you're unable to actually discuss sailing.
Like I said, sailing out here is actually pretty challenging. I don't know why you would think that the BVI is a challenging area. I suppose your assertion that I thought it was a challenge there is either a fantasy of yours or you're just lying. I did say it was fun. It seems to me that getting dinged by one's ISP should indicate one has a problem. My experience with ISPs is that they're generally pretty forgiving. And, it seems like they've been pretty forgiving of you, since you're here and posting. You can complain about me all you want, but it seems pretty clear that even if I did make a complaint against you, it didn't have much affect. Personally, I have no wish to see anyone banned or muzzled. I know you don't believe that, but that's your problem not mine. -- "j" ganz @@ www.sailnow.com "Capt.

Leopard seals have attacked & killed humans. More territorial than food, I suspect, never really looked into it. Y'know, what would it take for an orca attack on a human to be "proven?" A lot of folks with no incentive to lie have reported attacks by orcas. Overproof will probably see the ocean in May. That clip provided by Ganz on another post was very entertaining.... it's amazing to see a vessel flounder in such a mild wave. It's indicative of the lack of talent and ability of sailors in his area. My my... one guy sails into the surf and all of a sudden nobody in the whole area is a good sailor? BTW I didn't think that such a "mild" wave for a 22 foot boat. Looked like approx 1/2 it's LOA, very steep, and most of it was breaking. Double the size of the wave and you have the Gull Rocks at the mouth of my bay with breaking seas..... my double ender surfs that with no problem. Different boat, different conditions. And you have a real scary knife, too. Yeah, but you have a real sailboat. Ever read Tilman's account of sailing to Bylot Island? Worth it if you appreciate cold, remote places. No but thanks for the ref. Have you read 'Castaway on Cae Breton' by Prenties (1780) and Burrows (1823)? A very interesting pair of narratives, including a lot of rough weather small boat sailing.

That hot eh....
I knew that lawyer was not one of the 3. He was not even close to the group. Seems Prince Rainer was the third IMO. Joe |
