When are you gonna tell them that 35s5 was delivered to your yard for
someone else?


When I post pics of us sailing everyone will know what I'm a super
genious!

I'm waiting for your complete nuclear smackdown of the entire group!

They want it, they need it and you're just the guy to deliver!

They're in such a frenzy they don't see it coming.

Amen!

then saying I trolled everyone because
I lied about having the oxygen gear.


I would not have believed you. Sorry.


Well then you would be in error..... I sailed with a oxy bottle for several
years.... but the cost of refills for what was basically regulated to a
hang-over cure made it too expensive. I have a $700 Medical Kit for
Overproof.

If there's "no doubt" that they lose shape, I can understand why people
dislike them. They also jam mostly because the people using them don't know
how to use them well or they make a mistake. The ones in the mast might be
impossible to drop in an emergency.

Man I hate those things. Talked to a couple of people who have them,
and
they like them in light air only.


Not true, Jonathan. I sailed a Tayana 48 DS and it was fine. A Sweden
39 also sailed quite well. There's no doubt that you lose shape, even
with vertical battens (Doyle makes them for Hunter that way), but they
work fine for a lot of folks. Maybe I'll add one to my fractionally
rigged boat!!!! LOL!

. . . or all the raucous sex. Bouncing off the bulkheads and ceilings
can
inflect significant damage, even to a fine yacht such as the Nordica.



Max, looking at the website for the Nordica 30 and the serious issues
clearly shown and even described by Mooron, Im curious as to why you
think it's a "fine yacht." What experience have you had with the
Nordica line? I've only met two surveyors who knew what they are and
both held them in low regard.


Remove the hook from your cheek and then you'll understand.

I hate the ones that furl into the mast. They eliminate the ability to use
battens (yeah, I know that someone--North, maybe--is putting vertical
battens in their furling mains now), they eliminate the ability to carry a
significant roach, thanks to no battens, and since there are only two
bearing points--top and bottom--to carry the load of the sail, one or both
are going to fail eventually. And when they do you can count on it
occurring when you are least likely to be able to deal with it, such as well
offshore, or during the approach of a squall. Then you're screwed, blued,
and tattooed.

I like some of the furling booms, however. You can still lower the main if
you have a bearing failure, and the other limitations of furling mains are
eliminated.

My point was that if Bubbles had a furling main, then he'd negate the need
for sail covers entirely. A more attractive arrangement for a dockside
condo.

Down in this neck of the sea... we refer to Bobsprit's condition as "Gut
Jigged".... horribly messy and the usually critical.

I see. So you DO understand that the Nordica 30 is a poor boat with
many problems, as shown my Mooron's site. That's what I thought.

Oh My... really Bobsprit.... you should calm down... all this thrashing
only sets the hook further.

I don't have a "site".... and my Nordica is ten times the boat of your
dockside exercise in tasteless lines, moulded plastic and shelf liner decor.

Yeah, yeah...here's your hook!

"The woodwork inside is not always of the best workmanship and is a
common problem with all Nordicas."

YOUR WORDS. You'll never ever escape that, Mooron. People may pretend
that your boat is a good one, but the website says otherwise! Yum!
Tasty hook indeed!

Bwahahahahahaha!
