Unless he's sailing *all the time* ablative paint dies on the
surface. It only comes off and
stays fresh when underway. (self scrubbing - Duh!) It's better for power
boats because they go
fast enough to keep the paint scrubbed and fresh. Sailboats don't go fast
enough and they don't
get used enough. So there! :-)

There is a lot you don't know.

It might take far less time enumerating the things she *does know.*

True, so true. But sometimes I *do* know about something. Then I'm not the least bit shy about speaking
my peace. What I've seen people writing around here is mostly ignorance based. Or, it's maybe something
they've read and barely understood and repeated. I can tell there's not much real experience going on here.
You can't be here as much as most of you and do any sailing at all....

Whatever! If I wrote it that way people would make jokes about my private parts..... :-)
Besides, I just googled speak your peace and got lots of sites. :-0~

Funny, but the one who posts the most, brags the most about
sailing the most.
doesn't add up, now, does it?

When it comes to Capt. Rob 2+2 = 10. He's the bragginest soul I've ever seen.
He's a bad influence. He's a bore and he has one of those *kick me hard* signs
tattooed on his forehead. Trouble is your about the only one here who sees it too.
He's got everybody else licking his feet. They never even look up. They can't see
the tattoo.... I ignore or delete most of his threads. The ones where he's only trying
to get somebody's goat in particular. He's got so many goats he needs to buy a
bigger ranch. I don't think he sails but once a year. Then he mostly takes pictures
so he can show them off and act like he sails all the time.

Cheers,
Ellen
