I dunno, Jeff. We had a really good time and some awesome sex aboard.

And where was Suzy at the time?


You never really asked how we'd use the A/C. Period.


There are only two ways that I know of, plugged in at a dock or
running a genset. And the boat doesn't have a genset. You're the one
who said "A boat without AC is horrific in August."

The point, which you're too dense to understand, is that you claimed
this as a great advantage, without even considering that it can only
be used at the dock with the boat buttoned up. That's handy for a
liveaboard in FL, but means little for a cruiser, unless you define
cruising as marina hopping. This speaks to your qualifications to
judge any boat as a cruiser. You went so far as to claim you don't
need proper ventilation because the boat has A/C.


To a sailor, it means a lot.

No, Jeff. Only a louse would quantify the merits of someone's passion
by make up their set of values to judge it.

No Bob. My entire point is that you completely lack the experience to
judge any other boat. For the last 10 years, you've judged everyones'
boat on a daily basis, but your experience is limited entirely to
boatshows, magazines, and occasional daysails in protected waters. I
don't claim you're a jerk because you daysail; I claim you're a jerk
because you make lists every week on the flaws of all other boats, and
advise others to "kill themselves" if their priorities differ from yours.

You're trying to spin this that I disapprove of daysailors. Nothing
could be further from the truth. Its you that I disapprove of.


And only a total ass like
yourself would react the way you have at someone who's "judged" you
boat, no matter how accurately. That's why you panties are in a twist
and that's why you're now stuck with me.

Actually, there wasn't anything you said about my boat that bothered
me. Is pretty clear that you lack the experience to judge it.

You keep trying to spin this that I'm upset that you bought a bene
instead of a cat. I have no problem with that; the bene was a fair
choice for you, I said that up front. I object to your claim that not
having a swim platform is reason to "kill yourself."


We all know what kind of person you are, Bob. If my daughter read
what I wrote, I could live with it. How about you?

Sorry, loser. That's one bit of bait I'll never touch. I don't ever
involve someone's kids in these antics on any level.

I'm not involving your kid; I'm just pointing out that you should
consider your comments here part of your legacy. If you're writing
things you wouldn't want your child to read, then maybe you should
reconsider. You seem very sensitive about this; I guess I hit a
nerve. What nerve that is, I don't want to know.

I had hoped that having a child would encourage you to mature a bit,
but it looks like you'll be stuck in junior high forever.
