I have no sympathy for anybody who runs a diesel engine for

produces? It's totally selfish and irresponsible. Anybody running a

regard
whatsoever for clean air and a clean marine environment. When
somebody's
'fun' takes precedence over my rights (to a clean environment) then I
cannot excuse such hedonism.

I wish they'd jack the price of recreational marine diesel up to about
fifty bucks a gallon. Maybe people would be forced to buy
environmentally friendly sailboats that use small, clean-air,
4-stroke,
gasoline outboards when needed but use sails most of the time. When
your 'cruising' is a blatant act of pollution and you don't even
realize
it then you're just clueless and nobody I want to associate with....

Wait a minute!!.......

Isn't this the same person who posted a while back that he used TBT in
his antifouling?

God is great!!! This man has had a sudden about-face conversion into
an environmentalist!

How did this inspirational sudden insight take place Wilbur? Was in
whilst you were sniffing your petrol tank? I have heard a lot about
the evils of petrol sniffing but never diesel sniffing; another reason
why is it is more socioenvironmentally friendly.

Ever so kindest regards

Nobody ever said TBT contributes to the greenhouse effect and global
warming. As long as the Navy uses it on their huge ships I'll feel free
to use it on my little sailboat.

Nobody has to smell it, nobody has to breathe it, nobody has to be
exposed to it unless they decide to chew on the bottom of my boat. Who
cares about some baby barnacles and algae spores that have to find a
better place to live, anyway? Not me!
