I have the feeling I have chosen the wrong group in which to waste a little free time. I haven't done a survey and I won't, but my gut tells me that about 90% of the posts in here are attacks on other posters, on politicians, on where one stands in the political spectrums. Is that the fun part? What's your point? That attacks on or insults of other posters seem to be the fun here rather than friendly discussions. You can thank Harry Krause for trying to set that tone 15 years ago. It's been an ongoing effort but it really didn't take hold till about five years ago. As was pointed out to you a while ago, there are sailing and paddling groups that might suit you better, unless, of course you are an anonymous troll who likes to stir up rec.boats. Are you referring to the Harry who posters say no longer posts here? So his ghost is responsible for the current crop of insults? Something to think about. |

He was disgraced and left with his tail between his legs. Bankruptcy foreclosure on a very modest bungalow and tax evasion took its toll on the poor fellow who tried to make us believe he was something he's not. One has to wonder why you have taken such a liking to this group? |

This isn't a "looking for soulmate" type of place. I don't like politics.

Is that the fun part? You're either Harry or Crazy. Go to a moderated group if you want decency. Everybody here is indecent, or here because of old habit. No sane person would come here otherwise. You can call me Ray. I am not a harry or a crazy, just a reasonable guy. Sorry to disappoint. :) Bull****, you lying ****. |

Yet, there is another reason. Some come here to see the boatless political idiots dance on the string offered. If one can't enjoy some boating content, one can certainly enjoy playing the idiots against each other. For example, this week, they think I am a liberal. Oh, well. It IS entertaining when I have nothing better to do. Carry on. Dont think that anyone here gives ONE **** about you, me, or ANYone else. Take your political ****, and re-pack it up your ass with your index finger, dip****. |

What kind of boat do you have or want to have? Where do you use it? What kind of boating do you prefer? On the other hand, if you're just here to stir the pot, we have plenty of candidates for that position already - past, present and future. |
