Here's one for Maxi....Heart of Gold
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 |

Hey Nutsy,
I see your boat in the picture. Why don't you use that picture to show Joe how you use the timbles and Schackles :^). http://community.webtv.net/tassail/ThomPage |

You need to buy a home and put that nice sailboat in your backyard, if there still is a place in New York City... 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. When are you going to post that website you promised? Weeks of rain and sweltering heat and you couldn't sail, but still no promised website! Well? 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. So you must be publishing you website since you can't sail tonight? LP |

Bwahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha All I see is a pile of very lubberly-like rope on the ends of the finger piers, where the dock cleats should be. BUSTED Good eyes, ole Thom! Cap'n Crunch |

All I see is a pile of very lubberly-like rope on the ends of the finger piers, where the dock cleats should be. Wrong. You have bad eyes. You people are so full of it and you bust yourselves. 1) How many aft lines are there and why? 2) Where are there no spring lines? 3) Why is 20% of the boat sticking out of the slip? 4) Why is the boat pulled tightly against the port side with no wind to push it there? The bow line taught, aft loose??? A real sailor would have spotted these things and figured out what was going on ESPECIALLY given that this is the first pic of the boat with the Heart of Gold graphics on the side. RB 35s5 NY |

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.

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?
