wrote in message ... snipped a bunch Gee Wilbur, could you please cite one example of Joe "bragging" perhaps you mistake working on boats as bragging? Not sure where you got that, I looked and could not find it. I guess you don't remember the boasting about running a OSV to the rigs and all the rough weather your were required to slog through all the time delivering supplies? Though you tried to act like you were the captain it was evident you were just a lowly deck hand. Again you're a liar as usual. You know you have never used your licences for anything other than wall paper. Care to provide proof? Naaaa just dream up another lie, say that beneth you or something, we all know you are a failure at anything to do with sailing. Moi? A liar? Perish the thought! It's just that my personal boat work history is nobody's business but my own or potential employer's which there will be no more of since I have officially retired having made my fortune. Never had a sinking. Never had an abandonment. Never abided a weak crew. Never failed to complete a voyage. Never felt the need to share all the mundane details. Unlike the majority of those these days who call themselves sailors, I don't require an audience. Sailing is the means and the end, the alpha and the omega and all you wannabes be damned! You're no sailor until you understand this. Tonnage??? Pahteuy! Means nothing if you can't even reach your destination without foundering. A 10 GT captain who makes a successful passage is 100 times the sailor as the 1000 GT captain who fails to complete the voyage and founders. Your boat is a perfect example of your failing to do well at anything. No one in his right mind would live on such a small little cheap flimsy boat with a broken boom and **** bucket for a head unless thats the best they could do. You must be thinking about the world famous Capt. Neal. He was a fictional character. I am Wilbur Hubbard and I sail an Allied Seawind 32 ketch. Wilbur Hubbard |
