After reading all the advice I realized each advisor here neglected to
consider a couple basic quesions before shooitn off their moth.

Ya migh want to know:
What type boat is Frogwatch using as in motor or sail
WHat size is this unknow vessel and When does the bhoat operate.
WHERE does this boat operate as in 80 degree F lake in Kansas or SF
Bay or Strait of Juan de Fuca or 900 miles west of W 130 line
Who are the passangers as in toddlers, or invalid 80 yo or Skip and
Lydia.
Does the operatrer have any training if so what kind and how
aboutthepassangers?

All will determine what type of emergency equipmnet and stratiges to
use.
But I guess its easier to just toss a bunch of jizz instead of
inquiring first.

Most of us here are quite familiar with all of the elements you
mentioned. Frogwatch has been posting extensively here for years under
a couple of names. We know all to well, the complete list of ships in
his little navy, his sailing area, his areas of interest and
expertise, how each member of his family feels about boats, and his
personality. We didn't just jump in at the last minute with no
background in the subject and plenty of unfounded opinion, as you just
did. :-)


Exactly.

Im saddened because ive been posting here since 2005 and never got
invited to your little group of buddies... Must be nice part of such a
special little gourp.

I lok at it this way:
THis place does have some great information at times. I use it as an
information source... Thats why its important to add detail to your
post so myself and others can benifit from the discussion. Heck
someone migh search "life slings" and get this post and because of the
total lack of detail continuin searcing for more usable stuff.

In other words if ya just want ot blow kisses up our buddies ass go
for it. If you want to contribute to a useful body of literature try
addign some useful detail.

Then there is SKip...................10,000s words of self induced
gizz enough to gag a texas cheerleader

Gosh, Bob, maybe you should have read the whole thread instead of trying to
glean all the information about an individual from one post. If, as you say,
you've been posting 'here' since 2005, then you should be very familiar with
Frogwatch and his various interests. If you feel you're missing out on
information, just ask. Detail will be provided.

To expect a detailed information background in every post on every subject is
getting a little extreme.

Yes, there is Skip who is a great writer and gives a wealth of
information to anyone who cares to read his stories.

You are not obligated to read anything Skip writes as a function of
"Dell Tec Support". Spell much ?

Anyway, I have three Dells and will remember to ask who the person is
I'm talking to should I ever need support.

Uhh, that would include you out.




Well, if they are Dells, you'll be speaking to someone on an island off
of Bangladesh when you need support. Good luck.
