Cannibal http://www.sailingtexas.com/scustom54100.html Wow... pretty boat, but isn't it a pain to get in an out from where the big wheel is? Seems like they could have made it simpler. A washer/dryer on a sailboat??? That's weird! -- 47 is special Seems a little overkill though. Do you really go through that much laundry to need something so intense? |

news ![]() What do you think, Wilbur? Would this one do? Cannibal http://www.sailingtexas.com/scustom54100.html Might make a good live-aboard-at-a-dock boat. This is the type of boat that only a "Bruce in Bangkok" would love. That particular Morgan will go to weather about as well as a haymow. It's sad that anybody would buy a sailboat that doesn't really sail and has a huge motor in a failed attempt to compensate. The interior is designed to attract the distaff side in that it looks like and is equipped like an apartment ashore. Wilbur Hubbard |

![]() I guess you didn't notice the "Twice around the world - by husband and wife" part? But maybe that's not your kind of sailing?

m... I guess you didn't notice the "Twice around the world - by husband and wife" part? On the deck of a freighter perhaps. . . Or, more likely they were talking about their sexual adventures. Wilbur Hubbard |

Wilbur Hubbard Willie-boy, you really expose your lack of knowledge of the "Cruising" world every time you post. Now sit down and think how you would want your "Real Cruising" boat equipped. Not the afternoon junket down the bay, or even the weekend cruising. No, the real cruising life style - you sell the house, kiss the kids good-bye and sail off. That is the type of people in my world and once you depart from the bounds of the afternoon cruise in the bay (and then you discover that the winds aren't blowing you abandon that). I'm talking about, say a "cruise" from Perth, Australia to Phuket, Thailand; maybe a nice trip from Singapore to India (non stop), you know stuff like that? A little late to abandon "afternoon cruise" when you are in the middle of the Indian Ocean and the wind stops blowing. I suspect that once you try to pack your dunnage onto a tiny little boat like yours you might change your tune a little. Imagine - everything you own on a peanut sized boat, no storage ashore, just you and your boat.... and little is better? No Willie-boy, you don't know a thing about real cruisers and you demonstrate your ignorance in your every post. Jesus! Cheating Walmart out of the price of a bottle of booze? A real cruiser!

"Bruce in Bangkok" opined in message
... snip Willie-boy, you really expose your lack of knowledge of the "Cruising" world every time you post. PKB! You don't even know what cruising is, apparently. You seem to confuse voyaging and cruising. Now sit down and think how you would want your "Real Cruising" boat equipped. Not the afternoon junket down the bay, or even the weekend cruising. No, the real cruising life style - you sell the house, kiss the kids good-bye and sail off. So far, so good. . . That is the type of people in my world and once you depart from the bounds of the afternoon cruise in the bay (and then you discover that the winds aren't blowing you abandon that). I'm talking about, say a "cruise" from Perth, Australia to Phuket, Thailand; maybe a nice trip from Singapore to India (non stop), you know stuff like that? A little late to abandon "afternoon cruise" when you are in the middle of the Indian Ocean and the wind stops blowing. Those are voyages. Get a clue. I realize you are getting senile but try to pay attention. I suspect that once you try to pack your dunnage onto a tiny little boat like yours you might change your tune a little. Imagine - everything you own on a peanut sized boat, no storage ashore, just you and your boat.... and little is better? I have everything I desire aboard except perhaps for a JessicaB and that would probably require a slightly larger boat of around 32 feet or so to have space and comfort for two people and their things. But, as a lone-hander 27 feet is plenty enough. I know because I live the cruising life in perfect contentment with no desire for a larger boat. No Willie-boy, you don't know a thing about real cruisers and you demonstrate your ignorance in your every post. Jesus! Cheating Walmart out of the price of a bottle of booze? A real cruiser! What's with the bottle of booze myth! You are mixing me up with somebody else. There's not even a Wal-Mart around here, for Pete's sake. Wilbur Hubbard |

You don't even know what cruising is, apparently. You seem to confuse voyaging and cruising. As I said before Willie-boy. the people who actually sail a boat somewhere don't talk much about cruising or voyaging they usually just saw "we went". When you start to differentiate between cruising and voyaging you, first of all, are quoting something that Lynn Pardey wrote and if you had read the Pardey's to any extent you'd realize that Lynn, particularly, is hell bent on proving that they, THE PARDEYS, are just do much better then anyone else. Thus THEY voyage while the rest of us commoners just cruise. But now that you have seized on Lynn's statement to justify your live then be happy. You aren't a cruiser, or a voyager, as the term is commonly used and your boating knowledge is from the books in your "extensive library". Cheers, Bruce |
