It's not my fault that neither you or Krause considered that
"siphoning" was not the only means of stealing gasoline from boats.


Wow. First, you cant read whats there, and now, you add to whats already
there.

Nice work.

Take care Rusty, and good luck.

Easy there, Wetsock. I think you're head may explode!

A little free advice...when school starts, sit in the front row of your

Not a chance! Not for moral or ethical reasons, but simply because he
doesn't have time to DO anything. His every waking moment is consumed in
posting on rec.boats.

John,
I guess he wants to pretend to steal gas, like he pretends to boat.

Think we'll have cases of fuel siphoning from boats at marinas?


It's already happened: http://tinyurl.com/8oel7
I reported back in August when my uncle had about 2/3 of his gas stolen
(about 70 gallons, probably all the thieves could carry) while at his
slip in our large public marina.


There's at least 150 boats on trailers at a marina near me...I wonder if
anyone watches the place after hours.


Dunno, since there aren't that many boats kept out of the water near my
marina. Those that are (one boatel, a few acres of yards) are mostly
fenced off with 9' chain link.

The docks themselves (except for the public guest docks) are accessible
from land by key only, but it's only too easy to grab the door as
someone is leaving. Of course, access from the water is WIDE open (which
is probably what happened to my uncle). "Security" does patrol, but for
the most part I get the impression that they're looking for people
parking in the lot without a permit.

My Blue-Boat stays safely at home in a locked garage. However, on the
rare occasion when I leave her at the open guest dock unattended
overnight (for a quicker early-morning departure), everything that isn't
bolted down comes with me.

The gear box, electronics, and two 6.6 gallon tanks are just too easy to
walk off with in the middle of the night. I get it all in one cart load,
and even in broad daylight in front of tens of witnesses I've never been
questioned about stripping the boat nearly bare. Kinda scary, actually.

Please untwist your panties. I never said anything of the kind. I said
you "overlooked" it when you made your statement. face it, you did! I
tend to think you know there are other ways of stealing gasoline, and
"siphoning" was simply your usenet shorthand for "stealing", which is
the word in the subject line. Wetsock, however, is just plain
clueless, and no amount of tutoring will cure an imbecile like him.

Really

Putting in an apostrophe and an extra "e" is not a typo.

Now I *might* have believed its was a spell-check issue, but now since you
have claimed its a typo, only proves you lack of grammar comprehension.

Good luck Rusty.

Ah, our boatless village idiot finnaly chimes in with his self-fabricated
lies.

I like the new computer lie Harry...very well thought out, and
original...very mature.

Hey Harry, didnt I read a post from you, complaining that all people do is
keep repeating falsehoods?

Oh the iorny...

BTW Krause...I'm going out on a REAL boat, on REAL water this week end...

Ill toast to you, as you're frantically typing away on Usenet, while I'm on
the water. :)
