pick up some of the leftovers from the boarders...;) Anyone remember
those little assh**es?


We built dinghies that looked very much like yours, and rowboats that
were somewhat more stout. Sold them for a couple of hundred dollars to
boaters who wanted something cheap to use to row from the marina dock
out to their mooring. We had a very small assembly line out in a metal
storage shed. The frames were cut out, and then the hullsides, bottoms,
et cetera, were cut using patterns out of sheets of marine ply. It
wasn't rocket science then, and it certainly isn't now.


Those who wanted a tow-behind dink usually ended up buying one of Dyer's
offerings, not a plywood tippydoodle. If the buyer wanted a more robust
rowboat, Dad had factory-made dories and rowboats that were suitable.


There isn't a boat you built on your website I would have taken out of a
small cove on Long Island Sound, unless, of course, I had a death wish.


My father didn't allow liveaboarders at his marina. Couple of nights, a
long weekend, fine. No longer. In those days, everyone seemed to
appreciate that. There weren't many rules at the marina, but the ones
there were were posted and enforced.


You know, Harry. I believe you have a wife. I believe you have a boat. I
believe you feed wild animals.

Much beyond that and your credibility just goes out the window. You've just
lied yourself into the corner too many times.

I want to see that lobster boat! What I find really amusing is the
fact that now that he down sized, he claims to only boat to get to the
fish. Was that what his lobster boat is for? How about when he owned a
Hatt? I wonder what he was fishing for when he single handed around
the Horn?

Harry, show us some pictures of you and your dad at your marina.

Back in my day, they had trials events but nothing like that! Back
then it was just in the woods, over downfall trees, etc.

I know. This is remarkable, isn't it? yes, I remember the day with the
logs, and creek beds. If you could balance on a bike more than 20
seconds you were a king dog. Malcolm Smith was one of the greatest
trials riders of the 60's and he would stand in awe of these guys.

See, Donnie, I can be as childish as you!


What a piece of **** you are. Now you've brought 2 of my family members
into this.
Didn't you get your knuckles rapped a while back for this same behaviour by
some of the more moderate members ?



Gee, Donnie, I don't remember. Can you Google it for me?

Dan plays the same ID game as Reggieturdo:

As does Herringturdo:





And "Jim":






A$$hats, all of them, but not smart enough to bust through
real filters. :}


There are reasons for that, and you obviously know them. Your list of
alias is at least more than the three people you mention here - combined.

So...your point is??

He's the lowest of the low lifes here. He's trying to beat JimH's
record for saying nasty, untrue things about people's loved ones.
That's why he's rec.boat's **** boy.
His knuckes can take a good rapping, after all, they've always been
dragging on the ground!


Is that your attempt at humor, Sally? Try again.

Why in the world would anybody care who has had what e-mail addresses in
their posts made to a boating newsgroup?

It's funny. If I want to filter someone, I right click on the header,
select filter, a window pops up with the 'author' as the default filter
expression, and I hit 'OK'. That works until the 'author' changes his name.
Neither I nor Reggie have changed names in quite a while, yet Harry has
these problems.

I can only guess that Harry's problems with his filters stem from using
Vista, or the LTP.
