KLC,, your posting is stupid..

She keeps going into bad weather. When the weather advisory is for
hurricane conditions to the right but moderate conditions to the left,,,
do ya go right?

The system she is in was forcast in advance. She could have gone to
Bermuda and avoided it. She didn't .. she kept heading for RI.
Now . .. she is in deep doo doo and heading for Bermuda ..

Maybe you are just trying to be a contrarian .. but your input is very
dumb.


I'm not there, neither are you. Your posting is stupid.

But she may have a case of "getthereitis."

Default Struggling to Bermuda

KLC,, do you know anything at all about Donna and her adventures? You don't
seem to.

She is barely surviving. Her boat and her body have taken a huge pounding.

The way I understand it ,, she could have gone to Bermuda but decided to
head on into a very bad situation
as she is heading toware RI.

Thank god I'm not there.. 50 kt wind, huge waves, by herself.

I think you have once again proved what a total asshole you are..


Please,, go do some work on your day sailor.

The storm was well forecasted almost a week in advance and she headed
right into the main path as you point out. Unfortunately she seems to
be excercising bad judgement, or failing to get and interpret the
right data.

I wish her well but nothing good will come of this in the end unless
she improves her planning skills. Bermuda is a *very* unforgiving
landfall unless you get it right.

It could very well be that given her condition she chose to avoid Bermuda
and its hazards in favor of heading for safer landfall. It strikes me that
she has made some poor decisions -- but I don't know what information she
has gotten. It's easy to be a critic, safe at home. NeverEven Sawaboat
proves that.
