Default Calm Weather on the LIS

You're the one who claim "40 knots." I said the forecast was for

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!
