The CPT is buildt like a tank, I've never had a problem yet with over
2K miles and in some big weather.


2000 miles since 1999??? That works out to aproximately 340 miles per
year...about a month of sailing for us if we just do short daysails!!!!
Joe's big, faster than a Swan 67 motorsailor has only sailed 340 miles
per year for 7 years plus!!!
SEVEN years with the wrong boat and those few miles prove it beyond any
doubt. He's got a houseboat that takes short sails on VERY few days per
year. Or maybe he's had a couple of longer cruises mixed with some
short ones....but let's be honest...very little sailing indeed.That's
also not many miles to really know your boat.
It should be interesting to see how Joe responds to this. It's his own
statement and I'm only repeating it. 2K miles in 7 years and he claims
he's got the right boat. He needs 7 years to outfit her...and shows no
sign of leaving for anywhere.
Finally...how much of that 2K miles were under power. In spite of his
silly claims we all know he's got a sea snail that is often in
desperate need of the engine.

Well....?

..... Or about twice as many miles as you manage.

Let's imagine that you go sailing **every** day from May to September. Your
photographs prove that you never go more than a mile from your marina.
That means that you do a maximum of 165 miles per year ... **if** you manage
to go sailing every single day of your wimpy season.

Well....?

If you had a auto pilot, how much time would you use it?
All the time, half, quarter maybe. Yeah I got 2K miles on the auto
pilot.
When you pulling your boat out for the winter?

Donal, is that the NEW math?
It really wouldn't matter if we sailed on a pond. We still sailed (for
example) our C&C 32 an average of 3 days per week. Most of the daysails
lasted 5 hours. So let's be conservative at say that we sailed under
100 miles per week. That would still come out to more than 2000 miles
in a single summer if we never cruised at all...which we did.
Joe took seven years for that.
Now, Joe has a big heavy steel motorsailor, but according to him it's
much faster than your 33.7 or my 35s5, so there's no reason for it to
be sitting at the dock.

Still waiting for Joe's response on this. 2K miles in 7 years. Doesn't
seem possible to sail so little.

USMM Masters licences 607529 Robert.
Thats over 1180 - 24 hours at sea underway- and not including any
RedCloud time.
When you get close you let me knew...cabin boy.

What does all that powerboat stuff have to do with a SAILBOAT that's
rarely sailed, Joe? So I guess it's true then.
You should sell Redcloud and buy a boat that suits the way you sail,
such as a Cape Dory Typhoon or Rhodes 19.

Listen cabin boy.

I can pick when and where I sail, I do not need a weekend warrior like
you suggesting anything. You know nothing about the sea, or the real
men who sail it.

The knot meter logs continuously including measuring the tidal flow when his
boat is tied firmly to the dock.

Just let us know when you're leaving. So far your poor Redcloud has
spent most of it's life on the dock.

Ohhhh...why didn't you say so. Can you send us a pic of the autopilot
hour meter?

Thanks!
