As far as safety, I've was handling a 47 foot boat quite nicely when I was 16 years old.

I ended up helping some young guy learn the rules, with the help of his CO. Somehow, you've completely failed to convince me of your competence. If a newcomer to this group were to ask the same basic question you asked, there would have been 20 responses advising you that you need to take a safe boating course. My advice that you seriously need to take a safety course stands, and your "know-it all" responses only re-inforce that opinion. Why do I need to convince YOU? I don't know, but you seem to have made it a high priority. So far, you might have convinced yourself, but that's about it. And even that would require a fair amount of intellectual dishonesty on your part. You didn't respond to my question about water temperature. Could you please do so in your next message? |

Lately, mostly political non-fiction. The last fiction binge involved nothing but Hemingway for almost 6 months. I stopped after one of his books which described two characters drinking wine with breakfast (in France). It made me feel hung over. |

It made me feel hung over. Ok, just wondering. I have a series I just finished - fun, light reading and I was thinking of sending them to you if you wanted them. But being the serious type, you probabaly wouldn't appreciate them anyway. :) |

Not allowing the CG onto your boat will because you think they need a search warrant will. Yes Doug, perfect analogy. shakes head and walks away |
