Sailing your boat your way!!
I'd really like to see some pictures of Jim's boat under sail and under
engine. -- "j" ganz @@ www.sailnow.com "Scotty" wrote in message . .. Hi Jim. You wrote, ''And those of us who can SAIL as well as motor at 15 knots'' Was that knot you? Do you have any pics of your boat, sailing? What are ''GD notes'' ? Scotty "JimC" wrote in message y.com... Hi Scotty. No, I didn't say I can sail at 15 knots. What I said was that I can motor out to where I want to sail and motor back at 15 knots. In our particular area, in which getting out and back from the sailing areas takes a signficant amount of time because or the traffic, etc., that gives me more time for SAILing. Also, this time of year we sometimes have some pretty severe squalls that build up suddently in the afternoon, and I usually prefer to come back to the marina rather than go through them. - The ability to return to the marina at 15 knots in such circumstances is an obvious safety factor. - Not saying that the Mac 26M is the best choice for extended blue water crossings, but for me, under these circumstances, its a good choice. Scotty, as a suggestion, maybe you ought to read the GD notes before you start pontificating about them. Jim Scotty wrote: "JimC" wrote in message . net... Capt. Rob wrote: Well said, Thom and I honestly agree with you. Everyone should enjoy their SAILboats in the way that suits them. And those of us who can SAIL as well as motor at 15 knots to and from a preferred sailing area, or to get around a squall, can enjoy our SAILboats even more. You can sail at 15 knots? Did buy a 50'er? A cat? Scotty |

I know, but Jim knows I'm kidding. I don't need to see his boat underwater.

Why JG? I didn't think you had much interest in the Macs.

The boat is too fast under power for convenient shots from another sailboat, and I don't have a dingy to sit in while taking pictures of the boat with someone else at the helm. And my wife sure doesn't want to do it. Jim |

Why not just take some pictures while under sail or power. I'm sure you
could get a picture or three that includes part of your boat... -- "j" ganz @@ www.sailnow.com "JimC" wrote in message t... Capt. JG wrote: I always have an interest in fine vessels. Good one JG.
