The biggest reason I was ragging him was that he was, apparently, to lazy
to provide a modicum of information; for instance, arriving by boat,
aircraft or parachuting in. How many people in the party, if more than
one, what are their nationalities. If on a vessel what are the most
recent port(s) of call: I'll bet that if he's coming from Havana, there
will be a few extra questions, if from Columbia perhaps a really thorough
examination/inspection.....

Duh! You can assume he's arriving by private yacht or he wouldn't be posting
to rec.boats.cruising. And, since he's posting from Surrey, British Columbia
one can also assume he is a long ways from Port Everglades but to the north;
not to the south. If he arrives via Cuba or Columbia then he's an even worse
navigator than Capt. Skip but I find that hard to believe.

Also one can tell by his sentence structure and improper verb tense that's
he's a Canuck - i.e. speaks French and attempts English. As you can see the
poor dude really does need help. So, here is a link that even a Frog might
understand:
