Bet you deep gry it too, huh? Nah, it's too big for that. Goes on a spit, over an old fuel tank which I then burn leaves in. It'll cook faster if you leave a couple of gallons of heating oil in the old tank!

By this time I was seriously happy to be off the boat with my wife so even *the astonishing cost of $480* didn't faze me much. It was $10/ft for the ungrounding (28' sailboat) and then $165 minimum and a couple other fees. snip... Whoo hoo! Around here the Coast Guard...or some friendly boater will always come to the rescue...for free. Re-thinking this, I regret posting it. It has me blaming my wife for my predicament when I had nobody but myslf to blame. If I had displayed much more confidence and a fun atitude I could probably have talked my wife into enjoying the overnight grounding. Unfortunately, I consider sailing to be an excercise in problem solving so I do not sail for the same reasons she does. I DID invite her. I apologize. David OHara It had to be written to vent your frustration and allow you to think more clearly. I often do similar, and usually remember to hit "delete" before hitting "send". I understand your reasons for liking single-handing as I used to be the same, but having accommodated "the admiral" for over a decade now, I can categorically state that nothing beats having your lady along. Yes, that means that we stayed put when I was pretty certain we could muscle through. Yes, we dove for safe anchorages before conditions got even mildly dicey. And sometimes we found that we could have made that leg comfortably. But the admiral now categorically trusts my judgement, despite the times I screwed up. One morning we awoke to a 20 degree heel due to a grounding. Ho hum, we'll wait for the tide. We DO, though, always have iron rations on board at all times. For us, that's a couple packages of Kraft Deluxe Mac and Cheese and a couple foil packets of tuna or salmon. That's enough calories and protein to keep us for a couple of days. "Tuna casserole" is one of our few shared comfort foods. Yours is probably different. KEEP it onboard. When (not if) you screw up, whatever your lady deems comfort food will go a LONG way towards mitigating the specific circumstances. -- Jere Lull Xan-a-Deux ('73 Tanzer 28 #4 out of Tolchester, MD) Xan's Pages: http://members.dca.net/jerelull/X-Main.html Our BVI FAQs (290+ pics) http://homepage.mac.com/jerelull/BVI/ |
