So, nobody can think of any real reasons not to target shoot at sea?
It seems to me that this would be safer than on land as I can be
certain there is nobody within bullet range whereas on land you never
know if that is true. (OK, perhaps there are Ninja scuba divers out
there).


Spend all your time looking for really dumb things to do, eh? Why would
you want to discharge firearms on the water? What are you shooting at,
the horizon?


I get the impression Harry went directly from the newborn section to
the geriatric ward when he was born. Really Harry, go back and read
the original post.

You can't explain your latest round of idiocy in a sentence? I recall
you wondering about warding off pirates. Usually the pirates are after
boats a little fancier and faster than your little sailboat. How are you
going to outrun or outgun a pack of pirates in a fast motorboat?
Perhaps you ought to concentrate on learning how to boat without
breaking stuff.

MY next invention, just for rec.boats, a blood pressure monitor that
disables the "send" button when Harry's blood pressure goes above a
certain level. It'd cut his posts by 99%.
Seriously Harry, get a grip, yer dodderin dude. This is just a fun
way to get my son to go sailing with me. He can shoot the .22 at a
foam float. There's no Pirates in my part of the world in this
century.

What a thrill.

My BP, by the way, was 120/63 at my last doctor's visit. How's yours?
