Sailing your boat your way!!
To the whole ASA Group;
Have a great Summer! Those with Boats, any kind; enjoy the hell out of them. They are YOUR"S; Use them any damn well way you want. I know you will. I just want to give you all a vote of confidence. ENJOY!! Maybe think of Ol Thom, once in a while. Maybe when you barbar haul a whisker pole or the sheet on a drifter. I've had my day. I envy each and every one of you, your youth and wish you well And: "I'LL DRINK TO THAT!!" Ol Thom (The Beached Bum) http://community.webtv.net/tassail/ThomPage |

Thanks Thom. I'll remember you the next time I take the 26M out. - I'm
hoping to do some fishing (maybe for tarpons)when it cools down a little. Jim Thom Stewart wrote: To the whole ASA Group; Have a great Summer! Those with Boats, any kind; enjoy the hell out of them.

Well said, Thom and I honestly agree with you. Everyone should enjoy their SAILboats in the way that suits them. I only wish others had your wisdom. Sadly, folks like Doug and Jeff waste tremendous energy fretting over how others enjoy their time on the water. I wish even them well. Take care, Thom. I'm signing off as well for a while.

I'm so frickin psyched... it'll be the first time since the summer before last that it will have seen the water. Everything is ready.... the boat looks great, The sails are ready to be hanked on. The hull has 5 coats of wax. The anti foul primary coat is on waiting the second coat 12 hours prior to splash. The sheets and halyards washed. All the electronics are operational. The engine started at the first push of the button. Even the bilges are pristine. CM "Thom Stewart" wrote in message ... To the whole ASA Group; Have a great Summer!

There's only one "person" here who is trying to tell others what boat they should have and how they should use it. Yup, it's Jeff. I tell people what boat they have but NOT how to use it. Which reminds me, Doug...Jeff's PDQ 36 would have also done nicely for you and even that's better than a trawler. RB 35s5 NY |

And now, the end is near;
And so I face the final curtain. My friend, Ill say it clear, Ill state my case, of which Im certain. Ive lived a life thats full. Ive traveled each and evry highway; And more, much more than this, I did it my way. Regrets, Ive had a few; But then again, too few to mention. I did what I had to do And saw it through without exemption. I planned each charted course; Each careful step along the byway, But more, much more than this, I did it my way. Yes, there were times, Im sure you knew When I bit off more than I could chew. But through it all, when there was doubt, I ate it up and spit it out. I faced it all and I stood tall; And did it my way. Ive loved, Ive laughed and cried. Ive had my fill; my share of losing. And now, as tears subside, I find it all so amusing. To think I did all that; And may I say - not in a shy way, No, oh no not me, I did it my way. For what is a man, what has he got? If not himself, then he has naught. To say the things he truly feels; Just like the words of Captain Neal. The record shows I took the blows - And did it my way! |
Sailing your boat your way!!
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.

Scotty, you need to read the original note more carefully. What I said
was: "...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." But how about getting off this crap and instead responding to the fact that my boat does cruise under power at 15 knots, and that this enables me to get where I need to go at higher speeds when needed.

Thanks. I had thought posting under the subject "Sailing your boat your way" might give me a little slack, but I underestimated the problem. Jim, allow me to outline the sort of "man" scotty potty is. Some years ago, after I sold my Pearson 30, I announced that I was buying a Catalina 30. Scotty, feeling I was buying a boat on a level he could identify with, was being quite civil and happy about it. Then I announced the truth...I had bought a much nicer C&C 32, representing (quite sadly) a nice boat that poor Scotty could never own. Without a moment's hesitation he started crying and yammering on how I was a liar blah blah blah. Becuase he owns junk he'd be happier with folks who also own junk as it's less of a threat and a clear indicator of how short his life has fallen. You went out an bought what you wanted. Scotty can't do that. He's stuck with a boat that is 100% renowned for being awful. You can ask about the Siedelmann in any sailing group read the responses: Don't buy one. Another sad case here is Sloco, AKA Ringmaster. This guy is so lame he's been spinning like a top because I bought a bigger faster boat. Now that I own a Beneteau 35s5 (Still a modest boat by any measure) poor Scotty is beside himself with envy. He's bitter, angry and not sailing. What can you do with people like this? My friend owns a Tayana 48DS costing 6 times more than my boat. I've happy for him...and happy I get to sail it. Another friend owns a Sweden 39...a super nice boat as well. Scotty would probably like to suicide bomb these sailors. Be happy and keep sailing. Nothing upsets Scotty more. We're sailing today at 3:00...looks good...clear skies to you, Jim. RB 35s5 NY |

Jim,
Its my post and I mean it. Your Sail boat lets you do a lot of different things that " Us purest can't" and that's OK with me. Our boats ( when I had a boat) have different strengths. By the way; my first boat here it the NW was a Mac. 2-22 on a trailer. I sailed that boat on the many, many Lakes out here. It also let me range much greater distances on a week-end than I would ever even consider with my later boats (2 of them) There is nothing better than; "Messing around with boats" any kind of boats; AND "I'LL DRINK TO THAT!" By the way; Scotty also owned and sailed a Mac so toughen your skin and go with the flow. http://community.webtv.net/tassail/ThomPage |
