It will take awhile for everyone to adjust, meanwhile it will seem

I know they are out the let's hear about the boats, boating issues,
boating news, wannabe boaters, fish stories, etc.

Anyone know if Lee Yeaton is still around? I tried sending him some
pictures of the GB49 but got no response. If he's gone, we need a new

Tall ships
 

Don,

Is Halifax still a stopping off point for the Tall Ships when they go on
tour through the Great Lakes? I was in Quebec when they came thru on the
way to Chicago. There must have been 15 ships, some in the process of being
restored, and some in pristine condition. It seems that there are more
people who are interested in the 'romance" of the old wooden tall ships.

I also saw some great Windjammer Boats in the VI's and they seem to be
booked up well in advance.

But the best Tall Ship I have seen was on TV the other night, I was a newly
built Clipper Ship called the Royal Clipper. You can see the details here
http://www.starclippers.com/ships_rc.html .

The best part it is fully automated so the guest can play around with
raising and lowering the sails, but it can really be done with very few
crewman.

It is a beauty.

Harry,

Can you imagine taking your bride on a little cruise on this sailboat?
http://www.starclippers.com/ships_rc.html

They are actually participating in the Antigua Regatta this year.

The Clipper sails in both the Mediterranean and the Caribbean, so you could
actually take a long vacation, do the Med. sail the boat across the
Atlantic, and then do the Grenadine Islands.

This might be the best looking Ship I have ever seen.

Some people lead such dull lives their only enjoyment is trying to live
vicariously through others, if you get my meaning. Guess I missed the post
you mentioned, Don. Oh well.

Imagine the results for a program that counted up posts totally devoid of
useful or even interesting content, and attributed them to their
particular users. I suspect "the seven sisters" would be engraved in
*that* book of gold.

to go to the extreme of making each and every post boating related.

We need to cut out the swearing and name calling. If we can achieve that
the other will fall in line..... it is then IMO it is mission accomplished.

Absolutely right. It's called leading by example. Let everyone's
posts here reflect what they would lke the entire group to be like.


Maybe you can get on your 'high horse' and plonk Bert for posting what he
claims are Harry's statistics. I would say that could be considered 'not
contributing much'...eh?



Is this the tone you plan to keep Don?


I'm a product of my environment.....
When someone wants to make a point of attacking me for non-contributing,
I may point out their inconsistencies.
If we all want to stick to boating...I'll contribute what I can.
Does this mean you'll quit provoking Atl_man2? That would be a great
help in cleaning up the noise ratio.

Hey, Chuck, Gene, Wayne, et al

Smithers, it is acceptable to carry on a normal chat here. You don't have
to go to the extreme of making each and every post boating related.

We need to cut out the swearing and name calling. If we can achieve that
the other will fall in line..... it is then IMO it is mission accomplished.

You don't have to google up some article about a boat with every reply you
make.

Merry Christmas.


Thank you for laying down the ground rules. That should help us all toe
the line.

Hey, Chuck, Gene, Wayne, et al
 

Fair enough. ;-)

BTW: No one *provokes* Kevin. He brings it on himself. Once Kevin stops
his c#ap here I am sure he will be a welcome contributor to the NG.

Exactly. Kevin has STARTED more personal attack threads than the rest of
the NG combined, as well as littering just about every other thread with is
adolescent foul language. Add to that the constant whing about others doing
the exact same thing he does.

As a result, kevin indeed brings it on himself.

Excellent.

It will take awhile for everyone to adjust, meanwhile it will seem
quiet until those boating thoughts start rolling in. :-)

I know they are out the let's hear about the boats, boating issues,
boating news, wannabe boaters, fish stories, etc.

Anyone know if Lee Yeaton is still around? I tried sending him some
pictures of the GB49 but got no response. If he's gone, we need a new
photo site. Any volunteers?

Here's what's happening at the Chesapeake Bay Bridge Tunnel. Of course, I'm not there, but it looks
like fun! Scroll down once the site loads.

Similar to when chuckie took his ball and bat and ran home, only to return

Could be. But we *could* give it a chance.

#1 "I'm a product of my environment" means you are a lemming. You can't
think for yourself. That is very sad.

#2 You don't contribute to on-topic posts or start on-topic posts. If I
am wrong, it's because it was so long ago I can't remember. All you
seem to do is trash everyone else except for your weak support posts for
your short list of buddies.

#2 "I'll contribute what I can"...So you don't think you have much to
offer that is on-topic? Maybe it's time to move on...

#3 "provoking Atl_man2?"...Are you his daddy? Why the need to add that?
Very strange. There must be an underlying reason for that statement.

Shame on me???

Even though you have dragged out your soapbox and that old 'Do as I say,
not as I do' sermon, you still refer to Atl_man2 as Kevin...even though
you know it irritates him. Why is that Jim?
As far as cleaning up the newsgroup, you can't even influence your
'gang' members, as evidenced by Fritz's slapping you down.
Another place to start might be with the latest 'gang'
groupie...KKKrueger. Dopey Dan's dogging me and sniffing my butt seems
to indicate he's here for one purpose. Have him post his home address
and I'll send him a pair of my old civvies. At least that'll spare the
rest of the newsgroup of his perversions.
Let me know when you are really ready to change your MO.

KKKrueger. Trying to be funny? What is you basis for that remark?
What are you trying to suggest?

"Dopey Dan's"...Typical response from you, Don. Sad and pathetic.

"he's here for one purpose"? Now that is insane. Compare MY on-topic
posts to yours. No even close. You spend your time here trashing other
people and defending those who also spend most of their time trashing
other people. Can take it, Don? Then go away.

"spare the rest of the newsgroup of his perversions"? Cite an example -
one - or retract.

Better look up internet libel laws if you intend to keep this up, Don.
