Apparently it is, since you think he's amusing. Yet, you have no problem scolding me about _my_ attitude... OK, I'll jump in here. I didn't see Wayne aproving of anyone elses comments, and I didn't see where Wayne thought the other post[s] were amusing. But Wayne is a great sailor and not only with his Grand Banks but is an accomplished wind sailor/racer. I have no doubt that Wayne is a great sailor. He said it the very last post: jerkPass the popcorn. The dumpster Diva is going to teach Wayne all about jerkcoral, and ground tackle. This should be good. wayne Heh. wayne There's always more to learn but I will be filtering carefully. :-) So, was he amused or not, in your humble opinion, by the dumpster Diva reference? If I was to be a sail or a trawler, I wouldnt' take his advice lightly. From what I understand the reason why there is so much chain involved is not only to thwart scrapes that would cut a rope but the weight of the chain helps to set the anchor. There's more than one reason to use chain and the length of the chain than what seems to be of face value. Ok. And what about retrieving the chain if you don't have help from the windlass? You are looking at 40'+ boats without a windlass? Keep on trollin' Please show me where I said that. What I said was what happens if it fails to work. So, you're just an idiot. You never asked that question. You're the one claiming I said something when I didn't. You're a liar AND an idiot. No, you never asked "what happens if it fails to work", dip****. Well, you're a liar and a dip****. You win! |
