LP,

I've made up my mind not to say or think ill of you, because you are the
companion of a friend of mine. A good 'net friend.

Please make some effort to make peace for every one sake. We don't
require your presence if we bother you but if you stay realize that the
group can't change for you. It is you who must change or leave us be,

That was ugly. I wonder if the mast came off because of the rollover, or
if it hit the bottom. WTF was the guy doing sailing there?

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.

Yeah it's not to bright to surf next to a rockey shore. Im sure his
mast was tore off due to a shallow hard bottom.

Yachtsea with dice on the side was fitting, he rolled the dice on that
one an has a major bad day. He was lucky not to have pitch poled.

If your going to surf you better have a boat that can plane with a
fast to rise bow, or you better have a full heavy keel.

Joe


JG April 5th 05 05:09 PM

No. That's further out. This is right under the Golden Gate, south
stanchion. Not a good place to sail when there are waves.

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

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.

Maybe he was in close, trying to avoid an unfavorable current. Maybe he

I think it might have been an attempt to surf, which is fine, except that
you don't do that if the waves are breaking. Usually, if you see surfers
there, it's not the right time.

I'm trying to get more info.

Id like to look at a chart, Seems after it rolled it was right up on

Joe April 5th 05 07:06 PM

If it's only 20+ feet then the mast struck bottom. Duh if you said it
was 30+ feet then maybe the mast did not strike bottom.

Anyone that surfs a sailboat knows to hand hold the main sheet so you
can let go if you roll, reducing the load on the mast. amatures!

Sailboats are meant to be worked on, not sailed. If the lord wanted them

Right? Remember that next time a mellow breeze lures you into temptation.



JG April 5th 05 07:36 PM

It's just off the south stanchion of the bridge... between that an Ft.
Point. I've sailed there before, but not with breaking waves. It looks scary
either way, but it's doable in good conditions. Of course, you don't want to
get right next to the rocks or the stanchion for obvious reasons, but the
center is fine for small boats.

Thom, really you need to give it a rest. Neal and others have been bragging
for a long time about how they've "reported me." They are liars on most
subjects, bigots for sure, and responding to them just gives them fuel.

I know you're not into kill filing but it really works. Basically, it
removes the temptation to reply to their stupid, hate-filled crapola, it
completely takes the wind out of their sails because they get no energy from
it, and it totally infuriates them at the same time. Judging from the
subject lines and the copied posts, Neal is having a fit that I don't
respond. I don't usually quote Jesus, but when he said "turn the other
cheek," he was right on. (I'm sure this will generate the usual derogatory
comments, but the good news is that I won't see them!)

From what it looked like to me, the boat was pooped, and sank on it's own or
