Still a lot of anger I see... can't get past it can you. I'm sorry for you.
All you're capable of doing is calling people names. Pretty pathetic.

Alas? Seems like a pretty good workout to me.


Getting up from a chair would be a work-out for you... Ya Pussy!

Mooron's sweeping comments about moorings somehow being better proves
that he knows little about that.


That speaks volumes about your lack of nautical experience Bob.... my
batteries are always charged. I don't need to "wash-down" after every sail
since my waters aren't polluted. The courtesy dock is for loading and
unloading. I take friends out all the time with no problem. You have an
extra step to dock, while I can sail to my mooring..... which I can also
sail from without requiring the aux. I have privacy and my vessel is much
safer at a mooring.

You don't have the option to moor..... you are not at all experienced with
the benefits of a mooring. If you were you would prefer one. You sail like a
power boater.... your posts illustrate that with blinding clarity. Your
statements regarding stereos and TVs, AC Ad Nauseum show you to be a power
boater at heart. Give it up and by a trawler... you are no sailor!

You may well be correct! However, I am always shocked by the meanness of
people who have moorings. They are always the last to order a round of
drinks.


Maybe you should row out to their boats... they are quite generous with the
on-board supplies! :-)

All true, but it's not much fun rowing to shore and rowing back with
supplies when the weather is bad. Also, out here, your bow wouldn't
always
be pointed into the wind, as the current overpowers the wind at times.



There are conditions when you simply can't row or wouldn't want to.
There are plenty of times when we sail with more than 6 people to. I
sure don't want to waste time rowing when I could be sailing. By the
time Mooron makes his second trip, we've already hoisted and are
enjoying cold drinks from the fridge that can be left running in the
slip. There are only two good reasons for a mooring:
1) You can't afford the slip.
2) You live in an area where slips are harder on boats..
Luckily, even when a norther comes through wave action is blocked
nicely by Hart Island and our breakwater. We can hang out below in
conditions that Mooron couldn't row in. We can also come back and not
get trapped aboard if T-storms happen to roll through at the end of a
sail.
In our slips....C&Cs, Tayana, Island Packet, Sweden, J-Boat, Bristol,
Beneteau, Pearson, Sabre. Out on the moorings....Hunters, Catalina,
Ranger, O'Day, Irwin. Mooron would be top dog at last.

Nothing kills the fun of yachting like a mooring. Of course they're
mean.

What makes you think I'm angry???

I just think you're a fragile little pansy and told you as much.

I you think rowing a Dory is a work-out..... then I'd say you're a weakling
and a pussy!

You always sound angry. In fact I actually think you're the most bitter
person here, perhaps more than Loco or Jeff. You should take a lesson
from Scotty. He's happy with a nice boat and hard working agenda. The
man has ethics and doesn't need to bare his teeth every 5 minutes. You
need help, Mooron, moored or in a slip.

Bwahahahahaa... name one that you would go sailing in Bob!!

There are plenty of times when we sail with more than 6 people to.


So? scoot out to the mooring, start the aux because you are such an out of
shape windbag you can't row 6 people out a hundred yards to a mooring...
and take the vessel into the dock to load up the lubbers.

I
sure don't want to waste time rowing when I could be sailing.


No you prefer to start the aux.. warm it up... back out of a SLIP.... motor
out to the bay and then finally raise sail?

POWER BOATER!!!!

There are only two good reasons for a mooring:
1) You can't afford the slip.


Slips are cheap here.... $500 Cdn for a season with power and water.

2) You live in an area where slips are harder on boats..


That's everywhere Bob!

What??!! I can row effectively in a gale.... but then I'm in great phyiscal
shape.... my niece was sailing since she was 3 mths old and she's been on a
row boat many times.

In our slips....C&Cs, Tayana, Island Packet, Sweden, J-Boat, Bristol,
Beneteau, Pearson, Sabre. Out on the moorings....Hunters, Catalina,

I'm always Top Dog!

Bob's more concerned about the AC, Stereo, TV and luxuries of Condo Living
on a sailboat... that's why he has a slip with lots of power!

Bob is a Power Boater!!! Bwahahahahahaha

Bob... what you derive from my posts is merely a refection of what's in
your heart. The truth hurts and you hate to hear it... but Bob... you're a
"Power Boater".
