By one of our very own:
" Have you ever sailed from San Francisco to Hawaii? I have. Have you ever rounded Cape Horn? I have, twice. Have you ever transited the Panama Canal? I have. Have you owned more than 20 boats in your lifetime? I have. Have you ever sailed large boats competitively? I have. Have you ever been hundreds of miles from land in a powerboat under your command? I have." |

I've been there, shore side and walked from one side to the other - that could technically be "rounding" the Horn. Have you ever transited the Panama Canal? I have. Nope - but I did stay at a Ramada Inn once. Have you owned more than 20 boats in your lifetime? I have. Nope - last count, sixteen. If you count canoes, I'm still only at 17. Have you ever sailed large boats competitively? I have. Actually, I did - when I was in high school in fact - Marblehead to Bermuda race and I crewed one summer on the Queen Nefertiti which was an America's Cup trials boat build by Ted Hood. Went to high school with the Hood kids too. "I" is something of a misnomer though - I've crewed and I also took a turn at being helmsman for a shift, but the term "I" is indefinite enough in the sense that it does fit. Have you ever been hundreds of miles from land in a powerboat under your command? I have." Yep back in the day that is. Haven't done it in a few years. Anything else you'd like to know? |

When you finish explaining that, please explain why you put an outboard with a 25" lower unit on a boat with a 20" transom. When you finish explaining that, please explain how that outboard can be *so* efficient, it burns about half the fuel competing outboards would on the same boat and under the same operating conditions. Oh, and is your bipolar disorder under control now? -- Republicans and morality: do as they say, not as they do. |
