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.

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 :^).

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!

How and the hell could you be comfortable with that many boats around you?
That's just overkill to me. You need to buy a home and put that nice
sailboat in your backyard, if there still is a place in New York City...

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?

So you must be publishing you website since you can't sail tonight?

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.

so your shore power cord is normally deeper in the water
than it is in that pic?

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

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.

Why not put a large STP decal on the swim platform?
