And you start up a "conversation" with Boobsprit?
Congratulations.


If you ignore posts like DSK's you'll actually find some good content

I would think the original poster would have infinitely more satisfaction
discussing sailing with a seasoned sailor like Doug than with a spoiled brat
rich kid from NY.....

that this guy with all the sailing experience claims he doesn't know what a
sockpuppet is, yet he knows how to configure his ng program to shield his
email identity....warning...warning...danger...danger... ..

There are literally hundreds of thousands of people that
are considering
"going boating" this year... what do you say about helping
further the
cause?

I say, keep them off boats. There's too many idiots out on
the water now!





Over the past 30 years I've run aground so many times I've
considered
putting wheels on her keel.


Have you considered taking a basic nav course?

Welcome. In spite of all
the nonsense I generate here you'll find
that other people actually know something about sailing
and don't mind talking about it on occasion.

Ah!
Things dead, long dead, see! how they rise again!
--Why, why keep silence all these fourteen years,
When, on this letter, which he never wrote,
The tears were your tears?

The bloodstains were his.

Why, then, that noble silence,--kept so long--
Broken to-day for the first time--why?

Why?. . .

Note that I'm the only person not to troll this thread. Take from that
what you will.
Any pics of your Catalina 27 around?

this is exactly what i was talking about
out of the 17 replies so far, only 2 have anything remotely to do with
sailing.

as far as my "identity", if you'd like my name and address, phone number,
tcp-ip address, d/l number, ask, and I'll email it to you. I do this so the
spiders & bots don't grab a vailid email addy and fill my mailbox with
hundreds of spam emails...

I was under the impression that a sockpuppet was something you made with
your toddlers, sorry for my not being up to date on the vernacular.

thanks for confirming my opinion.

I'll discuss sailing with anyone that would like to discuss sailing.
I don't care if its a spoiled rich kid, or a dock bum (like me)
if it floats, its all good.

Why? Why you ask?
simply put, I'm just frustrated enough with the volumes of off topic flotsam
and jetsam, the "mines bigger than yours" the "yours is stupid, ytherefore,
you're stupid" posts.
I mean really people, do any of "yall" actually listen to yourselves?

Scotty,
I was of course, speaking with tongue firmly in cheek.
