You're the one who claim "40 knots." I said the forecast was for 10-15, gusts to 25, which is pretty much what there was. Jeff, why do you need to lie to defend your posts? I said the weather called for winds to 40 knots. I never REPORTED 40 knots, just echoed what I heard on the radio. Why do you lie like this Rob? I followed my comment with the marine forecast. Why don't you show us the forecast that claimed 40 knots? The actual wind was, as forecast, 15 kts with gusts 20 to 25. Your "forecast" was apparently pulled out of your butt. Beyond that your wind report is STILL wrong as we were in more that 10-15 constant. Yes, at Execution Rock the steady wind was as high as 16 knots for a brief period. It must have been horrific! Or, if you will, please admit to the group that my kevlar main is SO GREAT that the 35s5 can break hull speed in 10 knots without the genoa! I'm surprised you don't need extra ballast to keep from going airborne! The execution rocks link wind report matched what we observed 1st hand in any case. Really? So this whole little tantrum is because I said the forecast was 15 kts and you really saw 16? But what happened to your "forecast" of 40? Go away, Jeff...you're busted again. Me? You're the one who went out in moderate conditions, carried main only, and then repeatedly drenched your unprepared crew so you had to turn tail and run back in. Good show there, booby! |

However, I see by the raw data: http://www.ndbc.noaa.gov/data/realtime2/44022.txt that there were a few periods where the sustained wind was actually 9 m/s, or 17 kts. So now we know that's your limit - at 17 knots you can no longer control your boat. Of course, with the high seas, we can understand. What were they, 1 foot, or 2 feet? Your just don't understand how silly you look, arguing whether it was 15 or 16 or 17 knots, after you claimed the forecast was gusts to 40. Oh, I see. You weren't there. You weren't sailing. You're right, my boat's high and dry now. My last sail was last week, 10 miles singlehanded. It was uneventful except for the rain squall with 20kts that came and went. There's a chance I'll get out in a Rhodes 19 if its nice on the weekend. We were. Get used to that because it's the norm. Sure thing. Bring plenty of extra clothes. It sounds like you boat is pretty sloppy. |

![]() Your "forecast" was apparently pulled out of your butt. Actually it was from the butt of 1010 WINS News radio in NY, but thanks for the interest! Really? So this whole little tantrum is because I said the forecast was 15 kts and you really saw 16? But what happened to your "forecast" of 40? Still lying I see. I did not forcast 40 knots. The radio did. You're the one who went out in moderate conditions Gusts to 30 knots is hardly moderate conditions, unless those gusts are far apart. They weren't. You sound like someone who's never sailed a fast light boat on a gusty day! only, and then repeatedly drenched your unprepared crew so you had to turn tail and run back in. Good show there, booby! Yup....I was sailing with just the one sail...like everyone else. I guess we're all bad sailors! No spare clothes for Suzanne....that WAS a bad show. RB 35s5 NY |
