Are my arms strong enough?
Do my arms look strong enough to kedge my Tangerine 18 off a windy dock? http://www.badongo.com/pic/289518 I couldn't be a model. My shoulders and arms aren't thin enough. There's another picture. 289517 I had some old photos of my boat. They make it look bad. I'll take somenew ones soon. I want the sails up. Sails are white with and blue. Jib and main both. I'll upload them maybe next week. Cheers, Ellen |

Some Tangerines were orange but I don't think they made yellow ones. The top picture shows how mine used to be painted. http://www.geocities.com/renkensailboats/ BTW, I hope you have fun sailing your AmericanDaysailer. Is this the right one? http://www.thebiglot.com/ad_watercra...?WI=8481319492 It looks pretty fast. Cheers, Ellen |

I have a long pole you could use but you are probably a lesbian that never shaves. |

That's about as silly as most of Capt. JG's ideas! :-) I've never seen a recreational boat kedged of a dock (I've kedged off a number of other things), but I have used a pole on a number of occasions. I used to use a winter storage yard that was totally low budget - instead of a lift they had an old truck and a homemade frame. Boats were moved off the frame onto cradles with an array of small hydraulic jacks. Instead of a work boat with an engine, they would pole around their little cove with 20 foot poles. |

But, you don't see push poles carried on sailboats. So to say sailors should use a pole when they don't have one is dumb. I *do* have a couple of anchors..... Speaking of poles..... How do you sink a polish sailboat? Put it in water. :-) Cheers, Ellen |

True, but your boat isn't much bigger. But, you don't see push poles carried on sailboats. So to say sailors should use a pole when they don't have one is dumb. I *do* have a couple of anchors..... I have two eight foot oars and several boat hooks, one 12 feet long. My boat only draws 3 feet. I few weeks ago I posted a picture of a boat that was sailed thousands of miles without an engine, but using long sweeps. I'm pretty sure the poled with them on occasion. |

The only kind of preventer I know is used to keep the boom from jybing. It's no use pushing off docks. I'm not familiar with dock poles. Are we talking about the same thing? Here's a push pole. http://www.stiffypushpoles.com/stiffy.htm And here's a picture of one being used. http://www.stiffypushpoles.com/image...poling-web.jpg Does that look like a sailboat to you?
