Not necessarily.


No offense intended to y'all big-boat guys, it's just that it sounded to me
like Thomas found himself on the wrong side of the enjoyment/LOA curve.

anyone who has, or did have, a boat?


ROFLMAO. This from the guy who sold his boat!!

No. I didn't sell mine. I enjoy it. Sail it regularly, and I don't run
around whining without any basis whatever about supposedly "corrupt"
harbor
masters just because I don't get enough freebies from local gummint.


Dave,, a sunfish is not a cruising sailboat.

None taken. I don't really consider a 30' sailboat a big boat. It's too bad
when one finds oneself on the wrong side of the curve.

Dave has a good solid cruiser, and cruising is exactly what he does
with it.

The only cruising Dave does, is looking for dates,, that he pays by the
hour.

I've met Dave, and sailed on his boat. It is as I stated. If he had to
pay for dates, I think he'd need to start making a whole lot more
money.

I have a 22 foot aluminum runabout. It has plenty of room for two guys
to wave fishing rods about, not quite true of my son's 15 footer with
the ten horse motor. It is small enough for one person to launch it.
