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.

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.
