Donna needs to stay home an iron some guy's shirts. Anybody who goes aground
like that for no reason other than they are asleep at the wheel needs to
retire. Women are just about useless as sailors. They sleep way too much.
And they sleep way too deeply.

She was really lucky. There is something very irresponsible about
single handing 1,000 miles in heavily traveled coastal waters.

She was below asleep? WTF? In those waters? She deserves to lose the boat.

She was safer there than you are in your car when you go to pick up a

Yes, could have happened easily.

I disagree completely. Aside from comparing apples to oranges as the
algebra teachers are so fond of saying, you ignore the statistics of
miles traveled and hours spent, not to mention the hazzard to others
that she represented.

I've been there and have been single handing. You have no concept of
what you are saying.
