No Test Sail for Doug, the King of Keels!
"Capt. Rob" wrote in message oups.com... Out of the left side of his mouth: the vast majority of production boats are VERY close right down to the wiring. And yet, in this same thread out of the right side of his mouth: As for our van, the recall was not for our Sedona's serial #. Only some vans were effected. So, is your foot positioned in the middle of your mouth? |

As for our van, the recall was not for our Sedona's serial #. Yeah, those Pearson brake recalls REALLY effected sailing performance!!! And my Sedona has totally different handling and features from other 2006 Sedonas!!! BWAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHA! Gilly, you're another bag of farts who pretends to sail! Hooooh ahhhh! RB 35s5 NY |

Thank you. It was Jonathan who said: Every boat is different. Sailing a "sister ship" only gives one a fuzzy picture of what another boat is like. Fine for general impressions, but not worth much instead of a sea trial. It was Doug who said: Agreed, but then it's also true that you can learn a lot about how a boat sails... specifically, what techniques it rewards and which ones it doesn't... sailing a sistership. The vast majority of production boats are far from one-design, details of hull construction (if not actual hull shape) and rig vary tremendously over a production run. Still, the basic proportions of hull, foils, rig, etc are so close that the boats will behave pretty much the same. Then again, to jump on a sisership with different sails & different tuning might give you the impression that it's a completely different boat. As for the specifics of a given boat's gear, deck layout, wiring, etc etc... you're right on, a sistership is useless as a teaching platform. I'm glad to see you agreeing with them. They both have lots of experience, qualifications and awards for sailing. You will learn a lot from them in during your long sailing apprenticeship. BTW A Pearson sailboat does not have brakes. I can understand your gullibility and all, but who ever told you that did you no favor. Other Kia 2006 Sedonas do have the potential for radically different handling and performance. That's why they were recalled. Hang in there Bob, you'll catch on. Eventually. |

BTW A Pearson sailboat does not have brakes. Ever hear of a SEA ANCHOR??? Ever use one??? BWAHAHAHAHAHHA!!! 2006 Sedonas do have the potential for radically different handling and performance. Yep, mine is on 13 inch tires!!! Oh, Gilly! You're soooo silly. But you're still a bag of farts just like Doug who doesn't sail. RB 35s5 NY |

There is really a lot to admitre about you Rob. Just like the boy who hung
out at the newspaper loading docks who eventually got a route, went on to become a reporter and then the owner of the paper, you hang out out the marina, eager to run any errand, do any chore to get your start. With time and perserverance you'll move up to wharfside laddie-boy and then when you need less supervision you'll get to work the holding tank pumps or at least hold the hose. Your youthful inexperience will soon transform to middle age ineptitude.At that level you'll be performing tasks requiring minimal supervision and maybe be given some tasks requiring use of your own limited judgement. Stick to it Robbo, you can do it! |

"Charlie Morgan" wrote in message news Doug is a know nothing, non-sailing, Bag of Farts and now Gilly is a know nothing, non-sailing bag of farts. That is one of the greatest compliments a person could be served. Thank you kindly for classifying me in the same sailing category as Doug King. While I believe he is leagues beyond my experience and ability, your consideration of me as his peer is warmly appreciated. Thank you, Gilligan |

BS obviously doesn't know him. Neither does CWM. They should be so lucky. |

BS obviously doesn't know him. Neither does CWM. They should be so lucky. I think the opposite may be true and they could be acting out of jealousy or even worse. Krusty has made it be known that Doug's wife is a doctor that is head of an entire medical division at one of the world's greatest university hospitals and BS wife is an entry level nurse (trade school educated) at a single specialty institution. How could BS top that? Then it is easy to find out that Doug is a champion sailor and has sailed for many decades. How could BS top that? Doug can afford to run a trawler and he's looking for a largish racing sailboat. How can BS top that? Doug lives in a beautiful area with more trees in his yard than BS has in a quarter mile radius. How can BS top that? Add to that Doug's licensed professional maritime qualifications (held for decades), Doug's science backed college education, Doug's ability to think rationally, Doug's knowledge of history, economics, all things nautical, his musical abilities, etc there is nothing BS can top. That's why the relentless personal attacks by BS. He is simply jealous or may even be tinged by hatred. I don't like to see Robert abused by so many, so I think when he puffs himself up with his many maritime fantasy-experiences - surveyor, harbor pilot, electrical technician or whatever Walter Mitty thought happens to be occupying his mind at the time we should be the better person, amuse him and offer encouragement. |

Counter-productive. Entrenching him in his own delusions will only serve to make the problem worse. I see your point about the foundations of his claims against Doug, but do not think it should be played into. Rather. he should be castigated and brought to his senses..or at the very least, reminded to take his meds and keep his shrink appointments. |

BS obviously doesn't know him. Neither does CWM. They should be so lucky. You are correct that I do not know Doug personally. He knows just as much about me. All either of us knows is what is presented here in usenet for evidence. I suspect we are probably both very wrong on many counts. But all we are ever likely to know of each other is what gets written here, so as far as I am concerned, Doug will continue to be judged as the obnoxious ignorant blowhard who doesn't sail, but says he does. That's what has been presented here. Now watch for his snappy and mature response... CWM Yet others here have told you that he does indeed sail and sails often. I suppose you can call us all liars, but that wouldn't be the truth. Doug does sail, is very knowledgeable about sailing, and is very pleasant to be around socially. He is an interesting conversationalist and is well-informed on a variety of subjects. He also has a good sense of humor and is pretty laid back You can believe that or not, but as a person who knows him in real life, I think you would do well to temper your judgment. |
