Thank You JEFF!!!
 
Loco was here before you. He used to treat asa as his own e-bay.

The best way to kill this group is a continuous stream of polite
sailing
discussions.


Mooron, were you here when I drove Dr. Armpit into threats that he'd
drive here and kill me and most of the people on my block? He
practically went off the deep end, then we never heard from him again.
He'd been a regular for quite a while. We have some borderline cases
here. Doug, Loco and Jeff take all of this a bit to seriously and I
think I've shaved a few years off their frustrated little lives. Loco
has mentioned again and again how "he'll never forget how I treated him
when he first joined the group!" I actually think I drove Doug to buy a
trawler as he feared buying a sailboat that I'd rip apart. Jeff is
ready to use a chainsaw on his PeePeeQ and is upset that I told
everyone who don't own a 35s5 to kill themselves. I really only meant
Jeff. BTW, did you know that we sailed to Block Island last year and
never went to Port Jeff? The pics I posted we clearly of Mystic and no
one knew, not even the ones who claimed they've sailed here. Hmmmm.

This is probably why you can't travel to the US.

I'm amazed by how many true Republicans feel that way now. Sure, there are
some rightwingnuts who'll never admit they were wrong, but with a 39%
approval rating, Bushco may even lose some of those when it finally comes
out that Rove/Chumpy revealed Plame to Novak and others.

One of my favourites was "Lil Stevie Sumner"... Oh and Ganzy after
the
Bush won the election! He was snappin' like a rapid poodle at
everything!


Hey, I was pretty upset when Bush won too. Ironic thing is that now
most people who voted for him feel the same way. Do you know that the
previous owner of the 35s5 asked me (two minutes after meeting) if I
was anti-Bush. When I said "Of course" he said he'd never sell his boat
to a Bush supporter. Scary part...I think he was serious.

Wauqiez and Jboat, they can't compete with the 35s5 from a design
standpoint.


That's probably true if you're a moron.


Yeah, one of those Mooron's who's 6'3 and wonders why anyone would make
a bunk 6'4 or even 6'6. When my wife saw the Wauqiez sleeping quarters
she laughed. Funny how even premium builders now match many of the
appointments and features of the 35s5...15 years later.
Doug, you sure know boats!

The bottom line- Bubbles claims he bought a boat, paying more than 5X
what Scotty paid... and his boat is only slightly bigger, *maybe*
slightly faster (if Bubbles takes sailing lessons)... will be used
less,
and that closer to it's home slip.


WTF has he got to brag about?


You just said it. I have a bigger nicer boat! Who cares about the cost?
Only you!

Thanks!

If there's a LOT of wind, then yes the boat will heel...


Really and truly????

Swans are
always among the prettiest, most comfortable, and fastest boats in
production.

Doug is such a complete idiot. Comfortable for who? Doing what? You
mean a Swan is more comfortable than a big PDQ? Holy crap.

Sure, I get what you're saying. If one were sailing on a beam reach, for
example, a straight course would be faster than constantly turning. For up
wind, it's a different story.


Correct--that is what I'm saying. And while some may disagree, and even
obtain good results from sailing an unaltered, straight-line windward
course, what I've described has worked well for me. I've obtained marks
that I'd have missed, requiring another tack, had I just sailed straight.
It's allowed me to cover an opponent better in many cases. And I've been
able to sail consistently higher since I was taught to do so. Following
close races, I've had those who've trailed me ask the following question:
"How is it that you seem to be aiming below my course most of the time, but
end up ahead and to windward of me by the end of the windward leg?????"

The art of pointing, old chap.

How about one of the new NYYC 42s? Sweet boat, except for the name of
course.


To be honest I haven't stayed up on new boats at all. I'll do a search and
take a look at it, however.
