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

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.....

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.

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.

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.

Sounds like an excellent trip. I'd love to get to the Antarctic someday. 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. I've been sailing Patanela D
every second day or so since I got back.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Different boat, different conditions. And you have a real scary knife, too.

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.

Liar! You netKKKopped Moroon and you have a long history of netKKKopping.
You definitely do NOT believe in freedom of speech. You use censorship
to attempt to assert your will because you lack the intellect to do so.
