What does Dr Laura sail?

Dr. Laura Goes High Tech
July 21 - Los Angeles

Thanks to reading Forespar's newsletter, we've learned that 'Dr. Laura'
Schlessinger, famous advice giver on radio, has ordered a carbon fiber mast
for her J/105.

Some people might not think of Dr. Laura as the sailing type, but she's one
tough cookie. We were surfing the radio one day and heard a young woman say,
"Dr. Laura, my husband's sort of a slob and I'm just not interested in
having sex with him anymore. What should I do?"

What she shouldn't have done was call Dr. Laura, who unloaded with both
barrels: "Look honey, you agreed to marry him, and with that comes
responsibilities. One of them is sex. You may not want to do the dishes all
the time, but it's just something you've got to do. It's the same with sex.
You may not want to have sex with your husband, but you married him, so you
have to service him." Ouch!

Amen!

Word is she doesn't drive. Secondly she belongs in that class. The
boats are easy to sail, slow for their length in this day and age and
the class is made up of a bunch of hacks who think it's cool to play
bumper boats.

I dunno, seems like since we put all the new keels on 'em
we're getting fewer in for T-bone repairs. The Etchells
seem to be filling that slot recently!

Hacks is being too kind to them. I'll give J-Boats
credit for finding and establishing a market of
racing boats for people who have trouble finding
crew.

I've only known one couple who had one. They
had a great racing record because they hired an
asshole rock star to treat them like **** ordering
them around. The husband could not steer without
an apparent wind gauge. The wife could have been
a good tactician except they were more concerned
with winning than having fun. IDIOTS!

I would've figured she'd go for something more rigid.

I remember you saying one time that you parked there. Didn't know you
worked there. Does Bob still own "Stingray"

I worked there part time for 2 1/2 years...I still do a bit
now and again, but Mr.H wants to retire in a couple of years
so I'm working full time on our boat now. Bob still has
Stingray and Pamlico as well as a couple of small boats. He
donated Valkyrie to Hospice recently. It was a great
workout! We did 35 (thereabouts) of the J105 keels!

Stingray is a Merit 28 in disguise. I always had the hots to own one.
The first owner of Stingray had the deck replaced with a Santana 30/30
deck that he bought new from the factory. I heard he did the swap just
because he didn't like the looks of the Merit deck. A real case of
someone with too many dollars and no sense.
