As do you. The subject of the sentence and the antecedent is "one."
"Their"
is plural.

You have very poor English skills, Bob. The word should be "shat."

You must be wearing clean underwear!

Face it, Rob. You're at a marina that calls itself a yacht club and
hands
out phony "membership" cards so its customers can freeload off others.
The
game's been going on on City Island for at least 35 years.



Dave, how deep does your ignorance run? We have no membership cards of
any kind. Then again nobody here has ever been questioned when visiting
other clubs. And of course we discount to all BoatUS and club members.
Honestly...we don't check anyone's cards either. We just ask.
Yep...we have quite a scam going on here at NMYC! We offer more than
your club, everyone has a slip with power and water and it costs much
more to be here for it. Your "club" offers no service to members, no
deals on gear, no restaurant discounts and basically nothing they can't
charge you for. Do you even have a club shirt and jacket? We do!
Hey, guess what...they're calling for 30 knots this afternoon. Think
the launch can get you out to your boat? It sure won't be fun to BBQ
out there!
Sounds great! We'll be out at 4:00 sailing while you argue with the
launch driver! Don't forget to tip him 2 bucks!

Of course. But I haven't bought them. And a bunch of other stuff. But
"stuff" does not a club make.

Nor does a bar.


No problem. The Cove is very well protected. As for BBQ on a boat,
some
folks do. I don't.

No! First you told us that the cove always has a nice breeze. Now it's
well protected when those breezes pick up. We're all very impressed!

launch driver! Don't forget to tip him 2 bucks!


Up here where it's more civilized,
you leave the launch driver a check at the end of the season for
whatever
you think appropriate.

Bwahahahahaha! A nice paper trail for a launch driver? I'm sure they're
happy with that! BTW, our launch operator is a licenced captain. Is
yours?
Have fun hanging on that chain...if you feel that's civilized!

Look up something called "fetch" and get back to me.



You've trained your dog to keep strong winds and bad weather out of the
cove??? Wow!

Bwahahahahahaha! Dave, come off whatever you're on already! Your crappy
boat hanging from a rusty chain at some hot air club is not impressing
anyone. It's a scam and people who really use their boats don't want to
pay for a restaurant and the ability to get to their own boats!
Now if you use and dig that whole "club scene" and the food and events,
by all means give them your money. But NMYC closed it's clubhouse
because people prefered to be on their boats. Of course that really
doesn't work for a mooring field, now does it?


RB

Indeed. That's probably why we don't have a restaurant.


Really? So you must have local arrangements with restaurants that give
20% off, right? Sounds like your paying a lot of cash for a mooring and
little else. What does your "club" offer that's useful for the boat
itself? Full time docking? Dinghy dock? Discounts from BoatUS and West
Marine and UK and Doyle? Wireless internet? Anything?
Oh, yeah...you have a program for kids. We have that too, right across
the street with 15 assorted boats and a shared pair of Capri 25's.


On the other hand, using your test the folks at NYYC don't really
want to
use their boats.

Dunno, never been there. But I always sailboat owners that if they try
a slip they'll use their boats 1/3 more. So far no one who's tried a
slip has come back to argue the point. Full and instant access to the
boat is the only wait to go.
But hey, it's your toy!


Get out of the New York
ghetto.


Yeah! The lowest cost boat at my club is a J29 (though her sail
inventory cost more than your whole boat!)...oh but the owner also has
a new Cruisers 32 here. Your boat wouldn't fit in with our ghetto
Bristols, Swedens, Island Packets, Beneteaus, Tartans, Vindo's and so
on...and let's be honest, even the new Catalina 350 here is light years
nicer than your boat as is the Hunter 39.
Did you ever consider just selling that poor tub and joining a second
club?


BWAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHA!!!!

Dave,

Do you have cable tv at your mooring?

A vending machine no less than 50 yds away?

Towel service in the men's room?

hmmm?

Hell, BS, the Baldwin YC is more of a yacht club than yours will ever be,
and they don't even have a club house and never had one.

BTW, when is that "club" of yours going to sponsor a race? You gonna be on
the committee boat?

I'd rather they sponsor naval gunnery practice and RB be on the target boat.

So far no one who's tried a
slip has come back to argue the point.


As I said before, I spent several years in a slip at a much nicer
marina
than yours. And I'm arguing the point.


How could have been nicer if you're arguing the point? Can you explain
how the mooring is better then? You've failed to explain in any way how
the slip failed you. Give us a list of points as to why the mooring is
better.
