I know what is involved with sailing. Married a good sailors daughter and
used to windsurf. But too many "sailors" figure they have the right of way
as they have a sailboat. I have had "sailors" do a 90 degree in front of me
when lifting the sails and the iron sail is still running, and then yell at
me. They would yell even louder if I collided with them and when they had
to pay enormous sums of money to me.


What's your point? If you know the Rules of the Road, there's never
much doubt about who should give way.


Surely not the overtaking vessel? Must a vessel desiring to turn
from main channel to side route stand on past a harbour entrance
because a zoomer wants to pass between them and their port?

Could we invent turn signals for slow boats, to give those with
power, speed and a lack of courteous patience a more easily notable
legal signal of intentions to turn, given that noisy power vessels
make horn signals adequate for listening and watching sailors
inaudible aboard kilowatt stereo disco boats? Or would such
unauthorized lighting distract starlet eyed go boaters from their
fore deck ornaments?

Do these power mongers not understand the need of sailors to turn
into the wind to hoist their main sails?

Nor is there much doubt as to how hard it is to hit a planing power
boat with a sail boat, and vice versa.

Honest savvy power boaters well know the paranoid schizophrenia they
have forced on sailors and the bad reputation their wild mannered
birds of similar feathering have cultivated for them, well know the
secret rabid detestation that fires every sailor's killing passions
and undeniable mad obsession with reach ramming power boats who so
foolishly come so close as to make possible such sweet, aching
temptation to chisel yet another notch in their stems, and well know
to stay away, as they should from a starved tiger on a short chain.

Those who actually get rammed by sailboats have no one to blame but
themselves, (even the law of the sea agrees,) unless their canny X's
have topped the limit on their gas cards, and the grinning fates
deliver them to their well deserved, slow motion fates. Gradual
horror overtake them, woe by tides and drift the planing challenged
fume less speed boater who dallies wake less long enough for the
long plotting sailors' pack to organize, isolate, surround and
subsume their deserving victims, should Poseidon aid them and grant
conspiring seas, wind and grant calls for rights to starboard tack.

Like a wounded fawn in the teeth of crippled octogenarian wolves,
surely their vessels shall be dismembered and dispersed without
trace, like diseased baby seals in the toothless jaws of tired and
gallopless killer whales.

Aarrgghh! The longer takes the victory, the sweeter the vine of
triumph, the sweeter the smoke of the roasting. May they all overheat;^)

Hi Terry
I guess from your post that you dont like power boaters :-)

Power boaters are like car drivers who crash into buses when they stop at
bus stops and then complain that the bus should not have stopped!
Sailboats are always unpredictable by their nature so I can never understand
why so many powerboaters have to overtake sooo close even when there is
plenty of searoom

And what about the power boater that will become a sailboat after he raises
his sails and turns off the motor. Just because he carries sails, he should
have all the right of way? I carry a paddle on my powerboat, should I not
have right of way over a sailboat?

Doug,
Do you have any idea how narrow many channels are?
Take a look at the majority of the St. Law. Seaway.


Actually, that's VERY wide as channels go. Are you suggesting that you
cannot manage to drive your boat along a course and keep it within 100
yards or so of where it should be?

Are you also suggesting that going SLOW when close to other boat traffic
is not an option?

Don't know about St. Lawrence, but were we sail, the channel can be
less than 30 ft. wide in spots.

Bill,

If there was an accident and you were doing 25 mph within 15 ft. of another
boat, in a narrow channel, even if the other boat changed direction on a
whim, you would most likely be found partially responsibility for the
accident.

And where do the ColRegs assign any "rights" to a vessel being

(And yes, I know that a number of states do give this privilege to

Are you Crazy??? Please tell us which waterway its customary to do 25
mph within 15 feet of another vessel underway. I've seen pwc's do
this, but that could explain why they are reviled by most other boaters.

Bad analogy, Bill. On the highway everyone has the same purpose, and
traveling in a consistent manner serves the collective purpose.
Boaters have to remember that every other boater has a different
agenda and is seeing the world in a different way. When that sailboat
started preparing to turn you were half a mile away, possibly even on
a different course. Your insistence that he turned 15 feet in front
of you simply proves that that you're the one who was cluelessly
assuming that the world revolves around your desires.

Bill..wouldn't you be happier getting rid of that boat and buying an

It is when an idiot like you decides that the world revolves around
you and can change direction on a whim.

Nobody is changing directions "on a whim." The fact that you don't
understand a thing about sailboats, sailing, or indeed much of anything
apparently, makes it all very mysterious & whimsical to you.


... You do this on the freeway
also? How about in the 25 mph zone. You change lanes on a whim? On
your bicycle you change lanes on a whim?

Bad analogy, Bill.

A very bad analogy, and one that further proves my point that Bill & "Dr
Dr" and most of the rest are hopeless. They think driving a boat is like
driving a car. Any point based on seamanship, maritime principles, etc
etc, are all far above their comprehension.

I wonder how long they spent looking for the brake pedal in their boat.


... Your insistence that he turned 15 feet in front of
you simply proves that that you're the one who was cluelessly assuming
that the world revolves around your desires.


And that he was too close & too fast in the first place, but he's
already dismissed that inconvenient fact. Besides, there aren't any
yellow or white lines painted on the water, so who's to know which way
you're supposed to go? That darn sailboat didn't even have his turn
signal on!

Funny story: I called tech support for a bit of help and before I got

was fine, but the French wasn't even recognizable as French. In fact,
I thought it was some Scandinavian language.

Perhaps it was Harryspeak, 10% blather and 90% bull schit.

And what about the power boater that will become a sailboat after he
raises his sails and turns off the motor. Just because he carries
sails, he should have all the right of way? I carry a paddle on my
powerboat, should I not have right of way over a sailboat?

Bill..wouldn't you be happier getting rid of that boat and buying an
ATV? You could tear around the desert with no rules to follow, no one
to answer or whine to. Think about it.


I'm betting $1.00 he has an ATV and does just that.

BTW, my NAD amp arrived. Canadian company. Funny story: I called tech

Oh oh! I have trouble with the 'regular French'. I know the Acadian
version is slightly different from the Quebec version, which might be a
bit different from Parisian French.

Speaking of b.s. (and that is your first language), several years ago
you claimed you sold your old Crappyliner so you and the missus could
move to the left coast, buy a bluewater trawler and spend your days
carrying tostitos from Mexico to Alaska. But you're still living in
Dumfoch, Kansas. Care to explain?

Perhaps we can work at trade. Post a picture of that fab lobster boat or
admit you've been lying about it for years and I'll tell you about the
boat.

The Parisian version is easy; nous nous rendons!

My answer is the same as it has been for years, and it isn;t going to
change.

As soon as I see a genuine obituary for you in the Wichita paper, I'll
publish the photo.

Why did you change the subject, Jerkbait?

Skippy's Fantasies
 

Harry,
How is your fabulous Lobster Boat? There's no need for you to answer. You
don't have a Lobster Boat, you have never had a Lobster Boat, you are never
going to buy a Lobster Boat, and you will die without ever even walking on a
Lobster Boat.

The difference between Skipper and you, is Skipper has never claimed to have
purchased a Trawler, has never posted pictures of his trawler being built,
has never posted a sound wave of a Truck Horn saying it was on the Lobster
Boat, and then make up a fictitious individual to verify you actually owned
and were using your Lobster Boat on the Chesapeake Bay. The problem is you
are too stupid to understand your IP remains the same, even if you log on
under a different name.

Harry, you have relished in proving people wrong, whenever they make an
incorrect assumption concerning you, you went as far as mailing Chuck a copy
of your bill of sale on your Parker. When you and JohnH were buddies, you
invited him onto your Parker, but even though he said he would enjoy seeing
your Lobster Boat, you keep that hidden from him.

Only an idiot would believe you actually own a Lobster Boat, and while they
may not admit it, I am sure Don and Chuck don't believe your Lobster Boat
story anymore than anyone else.

There's no need for you to answer. You don't have a boat, you haven't
moved to the coast, you aren't going to be buying a trawler, and you'll
die in Derby, Kansas.

Derby, Kansas. Jesus. How did you end up in the Wichita metro area? I
mean, I know it is a great place for bigots, but was that the draw?
