You need to grow up, because this isn't adult behavior.

Why don't you take your racist comments somewhere else. Besides being
vile, it has nothing to do with sailing.


What is racist about JC Penney, a Jew?

Not only did I read the book, but I heled deliver Turner's winning boat
Tenacious boat, renamed and under new ownership, years later in the Med. :-)

Many of the boats found floating, crew gone, we totally trashed inside.

On the other hand, the Satori (ala The Perfect Storm) survived quite nicely
and washed up on a beach intact with little damage.

If you haven't read "Fastnet, Force 10" recently, you should. Some of
the boats from which people were rescued were found after the storm to
be floating well on their own. Others were found in pieces over the
next several years. There was huge controversy then (and apparently
now) whether you were better off in the boat or off. That debate was
fueled by the abandonment of a boat by four sailors (leaving two behind
for dead), only to have the men in the raft die when it broke apart and
while trying to be picked up by a ship (a couple went under the screws,
a horrible way to die). Other than Peter Goss, how many of us are
willing to be repeatedly knocked down or rolled?

Other than the safe advice never to get yourself into that position
(and many Fastnet captains were critcized for sailing into a storm), my
take is that you make the best call you can based upon the information
presented. There were no good choices then and (if you are stuck in a
storm), seldom are great choices now (none of us are clairvoyant).
Sometimes the "weather signs" are wrong (Gordon Bok has a great song
about a fisherman caught in such a storm) and sometimes the "safe"
choices aren't. Just before Labor Day this year a worn out hurricane
whipped up the East Coast. I was sailing from Rockland to Groton the
week following and met a sailer who was limping home to Portsmouth. He
had headed for land off New Jersey when he saw the storm coming and got
beat to hell on the pilings to which he was tied. He wished (in
hindsight) that he had stayed out and battened down.

As well, most of us would assume some risk on our own, but the equation
changes greatly when you are responsible for the safety of others, and
those others are likely to have an opinion as to whether you should "go
down with the ship." No boat is worth a life.

One of the sailboat abandoned has been recovered and is tied safely to the
dock in Bermuda.
The boat is bruised and battered and will be hauled out tomorrow.
Check the news on TV for more details.

If the Insurance Company paid off on the boat, it no longer belongs to
the person, but to the Insurance Company. It is their, the Insurance
Companys, responcibility to deal with the Hull and Salvage, at that
point.



I wonder how cheap you could buy it from them for. I buy quite a few
musical instruments from them for 2-5c on the dollar that "can't be
repaired".

That's it ,,, a sure sign ,,, you must be a Freemason, Jew Banker ....

Anyone who would use the word "puerile" here is definitely a Freemason Jew
Banker...

After reading the writings and thoughts of Larry, Sailboat Guy ... and
finding out that the world is run by a Freemason Jew Banker


I am changing the name of my boat.. Yup,,, the old name must go.

My new name?

"I love Freemason Jew Bankers".

Why not, it they have all the money and run everything then I am getting
onboard ( get it ,, onboard ).

Next time I enter a harbor, some guy wearing a yarmulke will be waiting for
me with mooring line in hand. He will say "dock over here Captain". "no
cost for you". "those women over there are for your pleasure, f'm all
free". "do you need any drugs, money, anything"?

If you see a boat with a big sign that says "this freemason Jew boat is
rockin don't come a knockin" .. that will be me.

Should I conceal to the freemason Jews that I am Irish ...................
naw..

It happened to a friend's boat last year. It was towed in by an LNG
ship. Aside from all the cushions being soaked and a bent bow pulpit
(from the tow line), it didn't look any worse than after a two week
cruise in Maine. As he quipped, "As soon as they stopped trying to
steer it, it did just fine."



I remember reading a story about a boat the owner abandoned off California
in a terrible storm. Several years later, some fishermen dragged it into
Hawaii and CG called them to come get it. You're right about the steering.
It must have been a long voyage to Hawaii in the current. The story said
the bilge pump was still working off the solar-charged batteries! Wonder
how many storms it went through with noone steering over those years? It
was fine....

Do they have to pay the insurance company back to keep from being
prosecuted for insurance fraud when that happens? I've often wondered how
many abandonments actually involved insurance fraud, trying to get more
money out of a boat than the market was willing to pay, if anything....It's
a point.

Well, if the boat were owned by a Jewish banker, then obviously it's fraud.
