The Andrea Gail had a gasoline engine
 
hoary, your mind seems a little fluid sometimes. Are you or are you not saying
the Andrea Gail had a gasoline main engine, the plugs of which the drunken crew
cleaned the night before sailing as stated my the author of the book, "The
Perfect Storm"?

Wrong again, bongbrain. Never made any such claim. I never saw the AG
nor do I recall reading a list of what equipment it carried.

I did say it was possible the AG had a gasoline engine on board to power
some sort of aux. equipment, or as a backup power supply. It's not such
a great idea on a diesel-powered boat, but it is done. I've seen it.

With your crappy reading comprehension skills, you must have had a tough
time of it in school, eh?

shen, nobody on planet proofreads their copy in anticipation that you, shen,
might read it.


Anyone with a lick of sense does.

Shen


kinda vain of you shen, to claim that "Anyone with a lick of sense" (your
words) cares what you think.

How long have you had these delusions of grandeur and diety?

so, harelip, the Andrea Gail had a pre-WWII surplus multi-fuel engine?

I guess I have never heard that before. How did you happen on this interesting
tidbit, harelip?

Don't get riled up, there's plenty of diesel burning engines out there that
use spark plugs. They date all the way back to pre WWI and are still being
produced today, there's even a Wankel varient. Lot's of the bigger surplus
ones are still out there in work boats and trucks. In the 70s you could even
buy a Toyota Land Cruiser with one of these Multi Fuel engines.

so, base kisser, just *which* diesel engines (as used on longliner

fishing
boats) have spark plugs did you say?


Man, you are an absolute idiot! I NEVER said ANY diesel engines had
"spark plugs", you ****ing moron! I said diesel engines, and the
engine room of boats have many types of plugs. YOU are the dumb ass
who is claiming that when the author mentioned cleaning plugs, that it
had to have meant SPARK plugs. Are you too stupid to even realize what
you've said?

First, let me start by saying that my 5 year old son is more mature
than you. He knows not to do that little kid name calling. Second, no
one said, with definity, that the Andrea Gail had ANY type of engine,
except YOU. There have been, however, many people here who have
offered viable explanations to your original post. Too bad you aren't
smart enough to understand and digest those explanations.

base kisser, the AG had a diesel engine, just like every other longliner within
1,000 miles. It REALLY is stew ped of you to argue the AG did indeed have
spark plugs that could be cleaned by a drunken crew the night before sailing
**because the author said so** and there are three boats in the universe with
WWII surplus multi-fuel engines that never go anywhere, let alone banks
fishing in late October.

now, back to study hall with you base kisser. it it 45 minutes until lunch.

First, it is really "stew ped" of YOU to say that *I* said that the AG
had spark plugs. Please show where I've said such a thing. Can you?

base kisser, you have been babbling on for weeks about how many ways the AG
"might" have plugs in its engine that a drucken crew might clean the night
before sailing.

just admit it, base kisser, the whole discussion was over your head for your
first several hundred posts and be done with it.

Hey...asshole..do you think you can "move on" here on this idiotic
topic...surely there is some fresh itty bitty detail of boating arcana
you can use to start a new discussion with as much value as a jar of
vomitus, eh?

Harry,
While you may be correct about Jaxsshby beating a dead horse, it appears
that he is trying to steer the conversation towards boating issues. It also
seems that the majority of regulars in Usenet hate to move on, even if the
topic is repetitive and boring, full of name calling, and have as much value
as a jar of vomitus.

It is also very common for people to see the faults of others, but are
blinded when they have the same faults.

PS - I like your use of word vomitus instead of using the word vomit, while
they both can mean matter ejected from the stomach, vomitus sounds very
intelligent, and vomit just sounds childish.
