Well, I did see a post about anchor chain, but it was totally devoid of
meaningful content...

well, hoary, that is probably true for someone who couldn't graduate grade
third grade even after 4 tries.

Indeed, I got that feeling after reading your post...and wondered,
actually, whether you were just passed along to the third grade as a
sort of social promotion.

ah, hoary, have you set foot on a sailboat at any time in the last 70 years?

help us out, hoary. tell us what you learned way back then

or, if that is beyond you, google for a couple days (0.14 seconds for anyone
else) to find out why diesel engines have longer connecting rods relative to
cylinder bore than gas engines.

Or why a diesel needs a larger stroke relative to bore?

Or why sails are made of cloth?

Indeed, in fact, you are addressing someone who was a fairly successful
"club" racer of BlueJays and Lightnings, back when boats were made of
wood, and someone whose high school sailing days were aboard a lovely
L16 made especially for my father by Bill L. himself. And that's just in
my younger sailing days.

That it's no fun to sail when there's no wind.

You know what? I don't really care. Whether they do or don't doesn't
pass my WGAS test. That's who who gives a ****.

WGAS.


Or why sails are made of cloth?


As opposed to what? Pasta?

People need to remember to embrace the "OT" so I don't have to see that
crap.... . Use filters my friend, they work -- usually..
