I can't recall one pre-voyage or voyage of yours where something
significant failed on your boats. Maybe you should take up...bingo.

Herr Krause. At least he makes an attempt to prepare, where you only
boat by wishful thinking.

Did sail from Shell Point over to Panacea. Panacea has become very run
down with the marina mostly empty and two sunken sailboats at the
dock. Their slip fee was $175/month. At least they have fuel there
and a restaurant wheras Shell Point has neither.


You mean, "more run down." When I visited the marina there in the mid
90's, it was already run down.

Did your mast fall off on the way?

As long as I can remember to turn left out the front door, or right
out the back door, I'll be okay.
What's wrong with your GPS? Been banging it around?

During the real estate boom, Panacea was the last "undiscovered place"
but even it succumbed. However, this really was not so bad because it
resulted in the small bay getting cleaned up. Property values went
through the ceiling for salt marsh and a new marina was built. Now,
most of it is vacant with the docks of the marina missing boards and
nasty looking boats all over. It'll go back to being a sleepy
crabbing and fishing area.

The marina kind of reminds me of Breezy point where my boating
adventures begin.
Take the virtual tour.

"...nasty looking boats all over."

Nastier than your boats? Hard to believe.

Angelo's in Panacea is a better choice. Great drive down from
Tallahassee, too, including part of a national forest where one might
expect to see klan rallies and albino kids playing banjo. Don't get out
of the car. I haven't been there in about 15 years, so maybe it has
gotten better...or worse...depending upon how you define such terms.

If krausie did any boating, things would break on him once in a while,
but.......................

Uh huh. Not only do I have a boat, I use it. I also believe in
maintenance. You, on the other hand, don't have a boat. Or a life.- Hide quoted text -

- Show quoted text -

Yeah, and you're too fat, lazy, and untalented to do any of it
yourself.

D'oh. I have a practically new motor, still under warranty. Routine
maintenance costs only a few hundred bucks a year. I can afford it. As
for "untalented," well, unlike you, I have a modern outboard* and it
requires all manner of training and special tools to keep it running
properly, not the wrench set from sears you bought at a yard sale.
I change the engine oil and filter mid-season. So far, nothing else on
the engine has required anything other than routine seasonal maintenance.

* there's no reason to believe you own any boat whatsoever...

I think the prob with the GPS is battery contacts, not sure yet.
Living adjacent to the area Harry describes for most of my life, I
have never seen a Klan Rally but I am sure that Harry is very familiar
with how to find them as are many racists.
Normally, I beat myself up for having wimped out on things like this
but am now happy about it. Winds of 25 kts at the buoys.

Indeed, I do know how to sniff out right-wing racists such as, for
example, herring here.
