Just look at it, pathetic and Cheap.
http://captneal.homestead.com/files/portholemirror.jpg

Cheap 2 bit fake porthole mirror. Gawd ....any sailor would be ashamed
to have a cheap lubbery trinket like that aboard.

Cheap camera

Cheap bone head snapping pictures of a cheap, lubbery, fake
collectable used by lubbers to induce the feeling of being somewhere
Nautical. Quite pathetic.

Did you peel off the made in China sticker?

Better check the battery in your quartz clock Neal.

Bwahahahahahahahahahahaaaa a wanna be fer sure.
25 gt ticket...bwahahahahahah watta waste of time.

Damn Neal, you are one cheap SOB.

By the way, I like that stereo on your purple settee. Did you get it
at the dollar store?

What's really pathetic is the grizzled old balding fart taking the photo.

Wilber the Walrus is grinning at his dime store trinkets.

Tools that professional's use are a sign of the quality and dedication
to the job they take on.

Working with 100's of other Capt's it was easy to tell who was
serious about the job by the few tools they carried and the way they
maintained the boat.

Neal keeps a tight ship in his photo's anyway, thats to be respected
and a good sign, almost number one of a Captian.
A clean ship is a healthy ship.

But when he posted a picture of that cheap clock, and fake "nautical"
porthole it shows he may be more of a Capt'n Kangaroo then a sea
Capt. If I reported aboard a vessel with another Skipper such as
Neal, I'd would be very cautious and waiting for the first of many
lessons he needs to learn.

Gentlemen, gentlemen! And you too, Joe.

Did you see what else the Good Captain and World Famous USCG licensed
Master Mariner posted? I'm referring to this:

(Off again, this time for an Atlantic crossing)
(Updated November 16, 2006)

Check it out right he
http://captneal.homestead.com/Captain.html

Now, isn't it ironic how a couple of lamer, part-time wannabes who
haven't sailed out of sight of land for probably ten years sit in
judgment upon a "true and proud American sailorman" who is currently
making ocean crossings?

Pay special attention to this photo. Like his fellow confessed hack,
Maxprop,
Nellen doesn't know what tools are needed to do jobs properly. Like Max,
Nellen
has damaged hardware by using vice-grips, rather than a properly sized
wrench.
Look at that gouge! Bristol? Ouch!

http://captneal.homestead.com/files/staloktoggel.jpg

CWM


Does not appear to be vice grip damage. No teeth marks and the edge of the
face is not rounded. It more resembles the work of a pipe wrench if
anything.

Hack work with the wrong tools, regardless. That nasty scar could easily
be from
vicegrips or channel-loks. Highly doubtful that it was a pipe wrench.

CWM



Looks like he used a flat head screwdriver and a hammer to break it loose.

That would be a pretty bizarre and ineffective thing to do. Put proper
sized
wrenchs on the flats of the two parts and they always come apart without
much
fuss if they were properly assembled to begin with. Then again, Nellen
specializes in being bizarre and ineffective...

CWM



Well, that's what I was thinking! g

All you Bozos prove by your ignorant statements that you have NEVER
reused a Sta-Lok fitting. Had any of you lamers ever reused a Sta-Lok
fitting you would know that to disassemble them one must first clamp the
terminal body upside down in the jaws of a vice at the eye/pin area.
Then a wrench is used to spin the compression nut out of the body. Then
one must clamp the compression nut in the jaws of a vice. Then one must
use a hacksaw to cut the wire flush with the compression nut. With the
compression nut still firmly clamped in the jaws of the vice one uses a
punch to knock out the crimped wire/cone remains from the compression
nut. Those marks on the side you see were most like the result of the
vice jaws and if any marks are noted on the top of the compression nut
it was probably the result of it being "kissed" by the hacksaw blade.

What a bunch of ruckin' fetards! But, keep trying. One of these days
you might convince yourselves that you know even a tiny bit about
Bristol standing rigging.

Blah, blah. Anybody with any sense uses scrap wood when putting
chrome or other shiny stuff in a vise. No excuse there.
I would never treat my Mac 26M rigging with such disregard.

--Vic


Chrome? Bwahahahahhahahahhahahahahahhahah! Shows how much you know.
Maybe MacGregor cuts corners and uses chrome plated zinc (Zamak) for
it's fittings but real sailboats like that Bristol, 27-foot,
world-cruising, blue water, Coronado by the name of "Cuts the Mustard"
and owned, sailed and professionally maintained by the World Famous
Captain Neal uses solid stainless steel fittings for the standing
rigging. A few vice jaw marks are a badge of honor which do not
compromise the functionality of the fitting one iota. Any real sailor
who looked at that fitting closely would say to himself. Now, there's a
self-sufficient sailor who installs the best fittings available and if a
wire needs to be replaced he re-uses the fitting as re-usability is one
of the features of the Sta-Lok mechanical terminal. You will never finds
a top-of-the-line fitting like that one on any MacGregor. (For one
thing, they don't make them small enough for that 1/8 in wire the Mac
uses for the backstay. Bwahahahahhahahahhahhahahahah!
