The Boat may reflect the man, I have found you need a lot of money to
equip. a sail boat but there are ways around some and not others new
things cost, my boat is 33yr young and I would pick her over many
newer boats but the reason I realy got her was price it was the most
boat for the amount of money I had to spend the again you shouldnt
expect much more from a sergant in the Army (36' Morgan One Ton)

To the untrained eyes, a boat may reflect your status or your indebtedness.

The real picture of your status is reflected by the size of your crew and
the uniforms they are wearing.

Your sailboat is more than some lame toy. It should be and is, even if
you won't admit it, a reflection of the kind of man you are. That's why
I sail a Swan 68. I certainly would never retain a lawyer unless he
sailed something equivalent. Wilbur Hubbard

Assuming that this guy is real and not under the influence of an
overdose of Root Canal medication, he may have a point.

I have an old boat (29 years old) that I built by myself and it and I
(67) are still running. And I'm still learning things and building a
shipboard computer system for my next boat I'll buy when I move to
China in August. I will admit that my homemade boats, buildings and
computers are " a reflection of the kind of man (I am)".

But I'll never be bored until I die.





I make Mr Sails wear his uniform every time we sail...he has a hard time
strapping that peg leg on, though...

What should a hired escort be wearing?

depends on the weather. Mine usually wear jeans and a
t-shirt.

There are sailboats and there are sailboats. Your boat should be a

living in a double-wide in Pennsylvania then anything you can come up
with to sail I say more power to you. A working man has to do what he
can to get out on the water and should realize even an unnoteworthy
vessel is better than no vessel at all.


Keeping this in mind, don't you think it would be wise for a lawyer to
show up in this group with boat having a quality name. A Hinckley, a
Swan, a Wauquiez, a Morris, an Oyster, a Contest. You get the picture.
Could you honestly have much confidence in a lawyer who could not afford
one of the above or was so ignorant that he sailed a MacGregor 26?

To anyone who hasn't realized it, Wilbur (or whoever he is) posted the
initial note trolling in an attempt to get a response from me (the only
lawyer on the ng who owns a MacGregor). Since I didn't take the bait, he
was stuck with all the indignant responses from everyone else and more
or less made an ass of himself. Sorry, Wilbur. - Better luck next time!

As for my legal practice, although I'm technically retired, I have all
the work I can handle, thank you.

oh, don't be so hard on yourself, I'm sure there's one or
two more out there.
