Andy Granatelli will be sick!

"Reverend Crantz" wrote in message ... Why not put a large STP decal on the swim platform? "Swab Rob" wrote In regards to the method of securement to the dock... I never comment on it unless it will effect my vessel upon failure. Tying up to a dock and the manner in which it is done speaks volumes regarding the skipper's abilities and seamanship. I took the pic after applying the boat name to the port side. I haven't done the starboard side yet...started to rain. The boat is pulled in tight because I was putting the name on. Spring lines were in the way. Even with snubbers in use the #1 error I see is people who pull lines too tight and springs too loose. I agree with you on the Font and will probably redo it for next season. RB 35s5 NY |

What are those dark vertical lines on the hull?
"Capt.Mooron" wrote in message news:JFKwg.55551$B91.14652@edtnps82... I'd recommend you drop the italized and enlarge the font by 1/3. I'd also recommend you go with a different font and make it two colours. Gold inside with a black border to hi-light the name. [Goudy Stout?] In regards to the method of securement to the dock... I never comment on it unless it will effect my vessel upon failure. Tying up to a dock and the manner in which it is done speaks volumes regarding the skipper's abilities and seamanship. Good Grief..... the water is almost blue.... I'm glad I invested in toilet bowl fresheners... it's obvious everyone in NYC is now using them :-P CM- "Capt. Rob" wrote in message oups.com.. .. http://members.aol.com/bobsprit/images/heartgoldweb.jpg If this weather calms down, I'll have pics of everyone sailing tomorrow as well. But I already posted shots with Mom and Thomas aboard. BTW, just added the name to the boat....classic moment when the wind folded it in half...what a mess! I think I need a bigger font, but I'll see if I get used to it. No sailing tonight...raining like hell at the moment. RB 35s5 NY |

In ,
Scotty typed: What are those dark vertical lines on the hull? Scum from not ever having been cleaned. Either that, or a vertical zebra stripes to slow down such a fast boat so that the baby won't get scared when it gets up to hull speed. New modern technology.

Looks like they scrub their boats more often that you. The powercord in the water aint to smart, and the cluster**** on the cleats explains the schackles and thimbles. The font is to small.

But I already posted shots with Mom and Thomas aboard. Aboard what? A boat, but nothing definitive about that photo would indicate it is the HoG. And don't worry about the weather, Bubbles. It's bound to drop below 5kts. sooner or later. BTW, just added the name to the boat....classic moment when the wind folded it in half...what a mess!
