Neal,

Just about the total group disagree with you (&LP) if it is of any
interest to you. Your Gary has Donal fool but only for awhile. You and
LP are laughing at Donal but LP is prancing it around and screwing up
your cover. Enjoy it, it's a very small minority!

I hope this is my last post on the whole sorry mess. You were wrong to
allow outside people into the group the way you did. I can't excuse that
as most of the group can't excuse it. I hope that is plain enough
English for Gary



"Wrong to allow outside people into the group?"

Do you, in your dotage, believe alt.sailing.asa is a moderated group and
that I am the moderator?

No offense, Old Chap, but you're starting to sound like a moron.

From what it looked like to me, the boat was pooped, and sank on it's own or
the second person on the boat did when he climbed back on... He was wearing
foulies, and clearly was not a surfer.

I'm hoping to get more info, since I think a friend of mine knows the boat
owner.

Check it out.. I'm betting this guy will not try this again. Looks like
everyone got into the act. This was one lucky dude... should have known
better than to try and sail in that spot.

Amazing pics. Have to feel sorry for this guy, making a mistake like that
and having it recorded for posterity. Pity the good samaritan surfers sank
the boat.

And the boat may not have needed bottom work...

Ah yes. Very true.

Sailboats are meant to be worked on, not sailed.


Indeed. What is faith without works?


.... If it'd been on the hard getting painted it wouldn't have sank.
Right? Remember that next time a mellow breeze lures you into temptation.


But one must demonstrate one's virtue by sailing every once in a while.
It is not a surrender to temptation, it is a triumph of the will and a
hallmark of grace. But truly, man was meant to sail his boat by the
sweat of his brow!

Yeh, but there are easier ways to do that.

Just goes to show the evils of sailing a boat instead of working on it!
That boat already needed work, including new bottom paint. There was no
reason to take her out. The wages of sin .....

You're a liar, Horvath. What's with 'probably'?

Ooops! Sorry about that.


I'm not to proud to admit when I made a mistake, unlike others in this
newsgroup. It takes a real man to admit his mistakes, and tell others
about it. I do my best, but I'm only human.

I will try to do better, and I'm glad that others are checking on me.

It takes a strong man with real character to own up to his mistakes.
I can accept this responsibility and try to live up to it.

That whole fiasco looks like something I would do.

He didn't hit bottom. It's 20+ feet there. It was the roll.


Not surprising, it looked like the boat got really hammered.


Turns out someone I know knows this guy, and I'm trying to find out.
Obviously, he made had a big lapse in judgement. I just can't imagine

why.
It's pretty obvious when there are breaking waves.


Maybe he was in close, trying to avoid an unfavorable current. Maybe he
thought he could get a boost by surfing those waves. Maybe there was a
really beautiful woman on shore he wanted to get a closer look at.

Sailing it creates more work. Your whole point is true. I doubt many others
see the true irony.

The wages of stupidity, more like.

And the boat may not have needed bottom work. A lot of boats that get
prepped for racing have very patchy looking bottoms from being sanded
fair... the anti-foul is this slick short-term stuff that's clear.


That may be true but facts have no place in a religious discussion grin.
Sailboats are meant to be worked on, not sailed. If the lord wanted them
sailed they wouldn't need so much work! These pictures show the results of
sin. If it'd been on the hard getting painted it wouldn't have sank.

The little boat was probably his home. Now that he is homeless, he can get
monthly checks from the loser liberal gov't in San Francisco.
