wrote: "Short Wave Sportfishing" wrote in message .. . I spent the entire day taking the trailer out from under the Halman in order to do a complete trailer refurb - man that was a job and a half. I haven't worked that hard in freakin' years. So, wouldn't you know it, but I had two emails on it tonight and one is coming to see it tomorrow, the other Wendsday. Watch me sell it and the buyer wants it by Thursday. Heh - he/she will just have to wait on that one. It will take me two weeks to recover. :) By the way, interesting side effect of removing the boat from the trailer - it looks like a completely different boat - very stylish with a certain "attitude" - only way I can explain it. Told ya! Not too late to keep her and upgrade yourself to a real sailor. And be a Squid?!? NEVER!! |

How could one possibly "upgrade" to sailing? notice big grin Ask any sailer if sailing is an upgrade over those stinky, noisy infernal combustion monsters that polute our waterways. :-) That really ought to be easy to do. As you know, we stinkpotters are compelled to steer clear of the ragboaters when they're under sail. That still doesn't present much of a problem in getting close enough to most sailboats to ask the suggested question. Unless they're in an organized race or just putzing aorund the bay for the afternoon, 9 out of 10 sailboats are most frequently powered by stinky, noise, infernal combustion motors while all sails remain fully secured. In fact, due to lack of maintenance a good many of those sailboats seem to produce a greater quantity of smoke (absolutely on on a per HP basis) than we stinkpotters do. However, I have heard many of your tribe observe, "Well, we *could* sail, if we wanted to." And they are, of course, entirely right. |
