The Kings Point station (about 1.6 miles south of City and Hart
Islands)


Hey, Jeff...have you EVER been sailing? Did you ever watch a boat a
half mile away catch a strong bit of air while you ghosted along? Did
you ever sail past a harbor and pick up a funnel effect? Have you EVER
sailed on the LIS where winds are very shifty and vary in strength
minute to minute on some days. Do you TRULY think that the Kings Point
station had the same conditions we had a few miles away? How about on
the approach to Huntington harbor or Oyster Bay?
This sad attempt to somehow discredit my wind reports is lame in the
extreme, not to mention ignorant. Suppose I was only in 13 knots or
maybe it was 30...? The only reason you care at all is that we're out
there most days sailing and loving it.
And the rest of you....or MOST of you are sitting at home watching
reruns of Antique Road show.

I may be in the Matrix, but I do sail and prove it with Photos. I have
no reason at all to believe that most folks on ASA sail more than once
or twice a month! IF THAT MUCH!!!
I think I'll STAY in the Matrix. It's a place where people own boats
and actually spend time aboard them (Relax, Joe!).
