JG said "You need to get past the anchor thing. It's not going to help you much." You've been nothing but snooty to me today. What's wrong? Get up on the wrong side of the bed? :-) But, I forgive you. No, not for your silly statement about the *anchor thing*. BTW it's called *kedging*. So you're wrong about using anchors for kedging off docks and so forth. Maybe you should click this link: http://www.nsc.ca/nsc_library/techta...te_kedging.htm As you can see captain, it's a time honored tradition. How do you think they got boats off docks before motors were invented? Did they wait until the wind was right? Maybe you should Google "kedging". You'll see how it's valuable to know about it. Anchors aren't just for anchoring. Refrain from any attempt to enlighten an idiot. It's like trying to teach a pig to sing.... you'll never suceed and it just frustrates the pig. CM- Mooron has spent a lot of time getting to know pigs. CWM I didn't know he'd gone into the hog business....did he sell all his chickens? |
