All right Mr. Pseudo Skipper...
When hostility broke out between you and Harry a couple of years ago,
another poster and myself offered our services as referee and scorekeeper,
as you and harry battled 'toe to toe' with digs and insults directed at
each other.
Do you remember the final score before we called it a 'no contest' and in
who's favour?




So using JimH's analogy, since you answered to the question I posed to
Skipper...you *are* the 'acting skipper'.
Thanks for clearing this mystery.



Don, Kevin has already tried this approach. Since I answered this post, does
that make me 'Skipper' also?


No..but could make you another 'Smithers clone'.

Don,
Since you responded to my posts, does that make you a "Smithers Clone"? Or
are you a "Skipper Clone". This whole thing is getting way to scary and
out of control, the Smithers and Skippers are taking over. Every where I
look I see another Skipper or Smithers.

As always you come through with an excellent suggestion, what would I do
without you? ; )

Hey if I can get off next July I would love to do the Marblehead to Halifax
Race. Do you know of anyone who needs crew for the race. I normally work
pit, but will do the sewer or grind. The only job I don't like is foredeck.

Have you ever done the race or participated in the after race parties?

You're correct.The wife and I lived in Ayers. Luckily, we spent only a few
months there.


The four towns formerly comprising parts of Ft. Devens are finally enjoying
some growth and recovery. When the base was operating, the towns were
fairly typical base towns, particularly Ayer, and they were devastated when
Devens closed. Now the bulk of the base infrastructure area has been
converted to commercial/industrial development, and is showing some success.
Ayer, Harvard, Lancaster, and Shirley are also experiencing growth and
construction as population moves to the area to take advantage of additional
ongoing development along the I-495 belt nearby. You might be favorably
impressed by Ayer Main Street today.

You might have a better chance of catching a ride with the Boston Yacht
Club gang. American yachts make up the majority of the boats.
You never know though...try here at the club our skipper belongs to...
http://www.rnsys.com/
There is an area set aside for the Marblehead/Halifax Ocean Race.
I haven't done the race...as I tend to get seasick out in heavier swells
and always worried about being in the way during a 2-3 day race such as
this. My former co-worker, a female, loved going to the parties as it
was a chance to meet 'rich American sailors'. I wasn't interested so
avoided the club...way too busy compared to the sedate normal atmosphere.

In 2006 it's the Halifax to Saint-Pierre et Miquelon Race.
This would be great for those here who love all things French.

Mr. Skip Starbuck October 2nd 05 06:01 PM

Thanks for the suggestion. The Marblehead - Halifax race is a two day race
with a party before and after the race, so it makes for a nice week long
vacation. The Halifax to St. -Pierre Race would probably take two weeks for
the race and activities.

I have always found sleeping on board will help you get your sea legs.

Thanks for the info. I didn't even know Ft. Devins had closed, which shows how
much attention I've been paying.

At the time, I was bringing home about $130/mo, counting the wife's allotment.
We didn't have enough money to do much 'touristing'. The 196th Brigade, my unit,
was gearing up for Vietnam, so I didn't have a lot of free time. We did manage
to get to the dog races in Boston, I think, a couple times a month. That was
cheap.

He and his 17 identities are in my kill file, so I only "see" him when
someone (who is not in my kill file) responds, but this sounds like a
typical Krause lie...there are way too many to count.

The funny ones are his boating stories...

He once claimed to trailer his boat down to the ramp, just to see if he
could launch it by himself, however, posting records showed the longest he
was idle from this group, was 35 minutes. He claimed there was a imposter
posting as him, but the headers proved him wrong. He ignored the rest of the
thread when caught, and it was right after that when he marked his posts for
no-archive. LOL!

He also claimed a bay trip once, but again, his posting times made the trip
impossible. He would have averaged 65kph, or something like that. When
caught on that one, I believe he claimed to have a sat-com downlink to his
boat. LOL!

The best recent lie, is his claim to use a GPS to set trim on a boat. He
claimed he could watch the speed in hundreds of a second, to see if his
trimming was working! Of course, anybody with a real boat knows that a wind
shift of a knot or two, tides, currents, and even waves will effect topical
(GPS) speed reading, especially if watching your hundredths! LOL!

There are too many to list, but he *is* funny is a pathetic sort of way.
Just let the twit live in his fantasy house, with his fantasy wife, and his
fantasy boat.

Every group has a village idiot, and ours is named Harry Krause. :)

For whatever reason, it is a *very* localized regional thing.
Generally (although it can vary even from one city to the next) "Pop" in
