Sounds like your in and out of the areas near Ponce De Leon with the
bubbling springs.

Some day Id like to cross Fla on the Okeechobee waterway, it crosses
fla right?

Wow, that's some long oh so long tail of "I love my boat, I swear I
do!" Unlike my trolls, this poor sap is serious in his efforts to
convince us that he went sailing today. Well, it's winter in NY. No
sailing for a while yet, so who knows why he's talking about my boat
sitting at the dock. He's a bit confused...at least. I especially liked
how he felt he needed to repeat his story on today's sail.
Pathetic...and the part about the S2 oil change is really embarassing.
I've owned 4 boats and all could have thier oil changed easily.
Wow...that S2 is some "yacht!"

Bwahahahahahhaha!

Ah, you're making me homesick. I've primarily sailed somewhat west of
you, however I understand completely. I've covered area as far east
as the Cape Sanblas/ Apalachicola/East Point area and look forward to
exploring futher east when the smoke clears in my life.

For sailors in this area, draft is more important than speed. Decent
ventilation is more important than cabin appointments. Charts become
somewhat meaningless unless making an approach in a maintained
channel. I remember being able to nose my Columbia Challenger (about
3'10 encapsulated as I recall, been a long time on that one) up to the
beach in a cove on the quarantine station side of Ship Island one
season and the next season not being able to get within a quarter
mile. Sometimes in the fall, I've had entire islands to myself except
for Eagles, Osprey, Pelicans, Alligators, and other assorted
wildlife. And it is not if you run aground it is when you run
aground. Can't wait.

You know of course Boobsprit is not a real, carbon based, entity.

Fairly obvious that boobsprit and Maroon are one and the same.

No.... but thanx for the compliment. The major differences are that I'm much
better looking, have a way nicer boat, my women are actually good looking, I
have class, I drink alcohol, I have a life outside the news group, I
actually know how to sail, I've travelled most of the planet, I have more
holdings, I have a way nicer boat.... did I mention I'm way better looking
???

The only thing we have in common might be a disgust for pretentious and
pious backwater sailors who cry for group sympathy when they get asses
handed to them for idiotic posts.

It seems like you're in "Shock & Awe" because a couple of posters don't
swallow your stinkbait about being a "Good Guy"???

Tsk Tsk Tsk..... you'll learn quickly I don't pick sides unless it suits
me.

So if you really love to sail and enjoy the feel of a capable boat you
should move.
