I get a kick out of them. I don't read them all, but I enjoy the ones I
do read. Further, your posts have convinced me that the cruising life is
not something I'd enjoy. I like boating, but not the endless maintenance
what you do seems to entail.

I like your attitude,too.

Carry on.

Skippy doesn't know what the real cruising life is all about. His main
problem is his boat's too big and complicated and he's got it loaded with
every conceivable, lubberly, unnecessary and breakdown prone "convenience"
which always turns out to be quite inconvenient when it breaks down and he
has to repair or replace it. Hence, he's become a systems slave.

So, don't get the wrong idea. Cruising should be simple and relatively
trouble free. A real cruiser spends the majority of his time sitting in the
cockpit observing and tweaking his sails while scanning the horizon. Next is
food and beverage consumption. Following that is sleep. Maintenance
constitutes perhaps 2% of his time.

And, a real cruiser leaves the distaff side home where she belongs. Women on
sailboats require too much pampering and they take up too much space and
they consume way excessively such scarce resources such as fresh water. Not
only that, but they bring bad luck.

Women are nest builders. Every real man knows that.

A sailboat is the very poorest of nests and no woman will be really happy
and fulfilled cruising long-term in such an insecure and transient
contraption. Buy the woman a nice home ashore and visit her from time to
time as a break from cruising and both man and woman will be the happier for
it.

Dear wilbur. i agree at times however here you are wrong making a
blanket statment. I met two women while attend my Lifeboatman course a
year and a half ago. I belive I was criticized for doing so by someone
here. They were employed on one of the tall ships working the west
coast, worked aloft, and had a shake that felt between a riggers screw
and a carpenters block. extreamly agil, knowldgable and sea worthy
women. then there was the woman giving sailing lesson at the bottom of
lake union in Seattle, WA. again another tall ship sailor only she was
a 500 ton mate. we had a great conversatoin on worm-parcil-serving
splices. again I would sail with any of those seaman on any oceans.

So you see. Not all woman are fat frumpy cows. Many are extreamly
capable sailors. You just have to know where to look.

I happen to be handsome, rich and desirable. But, women, with a rare
exception,(believe me) are totally put off by the thought of living aboard a
small sailboat for extended periods of time. I can get all the attractive
women I want. But who needs an attractive woman who will, 99% of the time,
hate cruising.

trust me willbur those tall ship women were not dykes with (marlin)

other bible thumping areas dont have what it takes to cruise...... but
the analogy is: If you want a snowball dont go looking in Brownsville,
TX. Try places like Seattle, Port Townsend, WA or Astoria, or Aberdene
IDK about the NE but asume its the same up there. Just dont go to a
republican state and expect to get good head and therefore dont go to
a republican state and expect to find a good woman capable and willing
to go cruising. Its all about proper attitude somthing a republican
woman lacks.

When I was a NMFS fishery biologist I met plenty of capable
interesting and ****able outdoorsy women. You just have to know where
to look.Oh and this new crop of 25-35 yo are a real hoot. Hell they
grew up singing katy Pery's song, I Kissed A Girl..... youtube it if
you havnt seen the video.

In other words I have to agree with your shallow assessment but
admonish your for not having a representative sample nor a thorough
understanding of MODERN women (ie under 30 yo). They are a different
kind of woman. I think that even you would be amazed ! I sure am :)

Good grief, but that's the worst suggestion I ever heard - get a liberal
woman to cruise with?

My GAWD! You're asking me to exist in purgatory. No liberal woman would last
five minutes aboard my sailboat before she would be seen walking the plank
being prodded in her fat, worthless, liberal ass with a boat hook.

Do you know what a nightmare it would be for a conservative man being
subjected to the mung and drool liberal women would constantly dribble out
of their uppity mouths?

"Save the whales, stop global warming, hug the trees, let's go see a
Broadway play, let's all drive electric cars, one square of toilet paper
allowed per defecation episode, we demand our abortion rights, save the
starving Ethiopian children, equal pay for males and females, gay rights,
close Guantanamo Bay, one year paid leave for pregnancy . . ."

Gags me - just gags me!!! Any liberal woman who stepped foot aboard my boat
would be seen, in very short order, walking the plank prodded in the ass by
a sharp boat hook with a sock stuffed in her pie hole and weighed down with
about fifty pounds of old rusty anchor chain.

and that wilbur is your paradox. The only women who are capable
mariners are the kind you cant stand becuase of they are capable. You
will never find a teabagging granny who belives as you do AND at the
same time be a capable sailor.

You poor guy.........


Do you know what a nightmare it would be for a conservative man being

There ya go again wilbur sounds like ur just not strong enough man or
confident enough man to sail with a capable woman. You should work on
that insacurity comlex you have. having sex is much more fun with a
confident woman. They like to do things a republican woman wouldnt do
or dont know how to do...............

Republican women come in two types: the sheepish tradtional betty
crocker republican types and the Sara palin ball buster bithches who
want to run the show. Ever notice how her husband jsut stands aound
looking peacful all the time? Its bcause he aint got no balls. Sara
sniped those off early on. Now, for me. Give me a good liber girl from
ALASKA or the PNW. Theyll show ya a good time and will hold you to a
good conversatoin too.

You can keep those lap dogs and ball busters. Id prefer to sail with a
capable shipmate that also gives good head.

Anchored out for an hour or so just to watch the stars.
I've set up an anchor on the stern rail so I can drop is if I need to
without having to wander forward to do so. It worked fine.
Drop off the stern then transfer to the bow cheat to point at the moon!
(We saw some small satellite fly over. Too small to be the ISS. Dunno.
It's wasn't on any of my schedules. But it was definitely on orbit)

D brought us in.
Yep, all by her own bad self.
Some guys here won't let their girls even handle the tiller.
I'm different, I guess.
I like having a competent crew.


Willy, I believe you are afraid of women.

Did the courts do that?
Or did it come - naturally?

The fact that you live in a country that doesn't demonize homosexuals
has about as much reference to anything as the fact that you live in
the land of Cubans...

Forget about Wilbur for a moment.

How do you have your anchor rigged? Are you using all rope or a chain
leader? I assume that you drag out some rode and carry the anchor back
and hang it on the stern pulpit and just toss it overboard when you
want to stop. But how about retrieving it?

snipped totally untenable suggestion which smacks of feminism


Good grief, but that's the worst suggestion I ever heard - get a liberal
woman to cruise with?

My GAWD! You're asking me to exist in purgatory. No liberal woman would
last
five minutes aboard my sailboat before she would be seen walking the plank
being prodded in her fat, worthless, liberal ass with a boat hook.

Do you know what a nightmare it would be for a conservative man being
subjected to the mung and drool liberal women would constantly dribble out
of their uppity mouths?

"Save the whales, stop global warming, hug the trees, let's go see a
Broadway play, let's all drive electric cars, one square of toilet paper
allowed per defecation episode, we demand our abortion rights, save the
starving Ethiopian children, equal pay for males and females, gay rights,
close Guantanamo Bay, one year paid leave for pregnancy . . ."

It's scientific and logical. Means "proves invalid."
As in toss it out.
Read it somewhere in reference to this old saw.
Of course I could have misread or misremembered.
That's possible. Or maybe what I read was plain wrong-headed.
But I don't want to get all arcane and tangled up here.
Wouldn't be right.
I bet Neal says things like "I could care less" too.

Jim - It's raining cats and dogs here right now.

Hi Bruce,

It's a flood control lake on the Red River along the border between Texas
and Oklahoma (98,000 acres). The lake is mostly 50-60 feet deep to the shores.

The Oklahoma side slopes down into the lake, and the Texas side is mostly
shear cliffs. That's part of the Red River Valley...

So it's not easy to find a comfortable place to anchor.
Last night, exploring the Little Mineral Creek arm, when I found a section
where the bottom came up *SMOOTHLY* to 18 - 20 feet, way out in the middle
of the creek (about a mile wide), I ran a search pattern over it half a dozen
times to make sure I wasn't trying to anchor on some submerged barn.

I have a heavy Bruce type ( :) !) and a Danforth type in the anchor locker
with 200 feet of rode and 10 feet of chain already bent on. Old habit.

I added a rail bracket and another Danforth on the st'bd side stern rail
as a quick drop in case of sudden need. That one has 120 feet of rode
and 6 feet of vinyl covered chain. The rode is kept in an anchor line bag
(net bag) in the cockpit locker. It can be bent to the anchor, or added
forward, as needed.

So the anchor is in place (when you want it there), but the rode is stowed.

She comes to a stop with the breeze on the stern - very comfortable.
Also directly facing the rising moon last night. Very romantic environment.

To face the boat INTO the wind, I pull up some slack in the rode, and walk that
forward to a bow cleat outside the lifelines.

At no time is the rode ever unfastened.

As for retrieving, we are probably less than 8000 pounds all up weight.
So the above works well to bring the boat head-to.

In heavy weather, cleat the rode to the bow before beginning this evolution.
Do a conventional into-the-wind approach and drop.
It's easier on me when solo.
Maybe safer too? The helm is manned and no moving around on deck.



I guess my worst fear is close maneuvering in the marina.

An anchor there isn't going to help much when the water is a lot
deeper than it is wide!

You only have abut 18 meters of water there. Not that deep although
with rope you probably use a 5::1 scope and the short chain isn't
doing much to help the anchor.

You comments abut not going forward is something I've always felt must
be a problem in small boats as they all have a sort of elevated cabin
top to gain more room below and that usually makes going forward
somewhat difficult,I'd think. And their "rails" are only about knee
high which doesn't make one feel too secure if the boat is bouncing
around a bit.

I have see something that you might find useful, although it is not
beautiful :-) Many boats have a sort of reel mounted on the aft
pulpit. It is a two part spool, I'd say about 2 feet long that bolts
around a horizontal tube somewhere on the aft pulpit and is used to
store the stern anchor line. It isn't for retrieving the anchor which
is apparently done by hand or a sheet winch but does make an easy
place to carry the line.

Bruce

Like you said, just to get them organized and dry.

I think a plastic garden hose reel might work for that purpose,
without the hose of course.

I think that the small dia., long rollers I have seen perhaps hold
more rope. Assuming a 24" long reel with a bare hub of 3" and 1/2 inch
rope then four layers on the reel will be some 239 feet.

The reels I am referring to obviously weren't intended to hold a storm
anchor rode so I think they were just for a "lunch hook" sort of
arrangement but for a small boat it would probably hold the main
anchor rode, if you wanted it back there :-)
