That could be a dangerous thing to do. The wife may expect similar
offerings everytime he's wrong.



They are BORN expecting such offerings....

I like your second post much better, but can you think
of
any other things
you should have done differently?


When he wrote about throwing the anchor, I thought he
was
going to try to kedge off.

It's kinda funny, but no one has mentioned what started
all of this: the
engine. If one relies upon their engine to be able to get
back home or to
get out of trouble, having it "slowly stop running" should
be a matter of
concern. I believe that the first order of business
shouldn't have been
continuing the sail, but in finding out why the engine
died, and fixing it.

He did mention the fuel pump. I believe his wife failed to
replace it the night before, even though she knew it was
going to die the next day.

That's funny!

Easy - you just a cushion or pfd for flotation.

It is unfortunate that the great and powerful mind of that
Master Mariner
Capt Neal is not here to contribute further on this
subject. I am certain
that he would add brilliant insight.

Oh, c'mon. You manly men wouldn't have any problem at all. You'd grab that
45# CQR, plop in on your hairy chest, and backstroke out a hundred yards.

Oh sure, the anchor itself is no problem. It's the 20 yards
of chain that's the problem... stuff keeps getting tangled
in your legs as you're swimming....

There is nothing childish about what i posted, You might not agree with it
but that's Your problem. If anything about this subject is childish it is a
woman who thinks she's gods gift to men and deserves special treatment just
because she's female.

OK...after reading his explanation of the history of sailing in his
family, I addend this. WHen you take her sailing, don't ask her to do
anything. Make her as comfortable as possible. Have a bottle of wine
on board. A boc of chocolates, a good book. Ig things get dicey, don't
get mad. Just clear the decks and do what has to be done. And get your
engine fixed so it never happens again. DON'T not take her sailing when
she asks. Take fer, grit your teeth, and think of the benefits that
might come from being pleasant for the day.

Oh sure I'd bet You'd like that, being treated like royalty I suppose is
what You expect from men just because You're a female. With that type of
attitude the captain ought to throw your ass overboard. You ever hear the
word teamwork? Just like a marriage sailing is a team thing but I doubt
You
comprehend that.


Please take your childish ranting elsewhere!

What a real man would have done is walk over to the wife, pull her
shirt/shorts off, bend her over, give her a good one. Then say "get the
anchor bitch, we seem to be hard aground".

And that I guess would explain your present relationship with the
inflatable Paris Hilton?
