No, crap-for-brains, I wasn't using the plotter to figure out where I was on the day that photo was taken, *nor* was the boat parked at a marina.

I'm saving *this* bit from your post: " The truth is you aren't doing anything with waypoints in MapSource because you don't own MapSource. We all get that, Hairless. Go play in traffic." It's a perfect example of the sort of "scummery" that sadly has taken over in rec.boats. So, in other words, you admit have no idea what you are talking about, and cannot support anything you claimed about setting waypoints in Mapsource. Got it! Again, more scummery from crap-for-brains. I know exactly what I was talking about in waypoints, and I can easily support what I claimed. I simply choose not to do so. There is *no* requirement I do what *you* want here or, in fact, anywhere else. You're nothing more than another "anonymous" rec.boats a**hole. "In other words" is the refuge you twerps frequently hide behind when other posters won't do as you wish. snerk I said we all got it, Hairless. You made a claim that you cannot substantiate, and now you are having a hissy fit over being exposed. Playing the "I don't have to tell you" card to try and cover your embarassment is about as lame as it gets. Go snerk yourself.- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - He says that he's doing something other than what we are doing. I've asked what that is, and how is he so sure we aren't already doing what he's trying to do........ |

Odd, huh? |
