stay on the crest of one of those waves and ride it out.

My school roommate was on the Carrier Bonne Homme Richard in a Cyclone in
the South Pacific when the waves bent the front of the deck. He said they
had green water rolling down the deck. He felt sorry for the DE's with them
as they disappeared completely at times. As well as what could they get to
eat. He said they could at least have coffee and sandwiches on the carrier.

Once upon a time (late 1980s) when rec.boats was actually a boating
(read sailing) forum and was to an impressive degree frequented by people
with real nautical experience (multiple Round the World Races, Navy...)
someone started a bragging match: "Who has been through the worst
storm at sea?"

The guy who 'won' had serviced on a nuclear air craft carrier
(Nimitz type of thing) and on the way into Japan they were over-
run by this typhoon and got pooped several times.

rec.boats is mostly populated by non-boaters these days, by boating
nincompoops who, for example, ask which brand of high-tech two cycle
outboard oil would be the best to use in their four cycle outboard, and
by amateur guitar players, amateur beer brewers, old farts who think
they had something to do with the production of grandchildren, golfers
who shoot in the 90s, and an absolute idiot who pretends he is a

Nice try at a recovery. Perhaps you should occupy yourself, as you have,
by sending snotty emails and private messages to those you don't like,

In those days, gays were being turned away and some were granted

Nope, this was before rec.boats got 'branches', if memory serves.
I have never attended r.b.c.

We had a 'club pendant' (is that the word??) designed and someone
working at the linear particle accelerator in Stanford printed and sold
t-shirts---I still have one.

We had rec.boats 'summit' dinner at one of the yacht clubs to the
north of S.F. (no not Sausolito, the name eludes me) in mid-June
1997.

There was a list of people willing to host (take for a sail)
rec.boaters on the road. I got out sailing on the S.F. Bay
and Chesapeake Bay that way. I took a guy from N.Y. sailing on
my cat here in Sweden.

We have 'moved on' since those days.

No one here seems capable of completing that task...as the majority seem
to be the polluters.



Florida Jim is ****ed at me because I wasn't stupid enough to get drafted.

The criminal record maybe?



Don't feed the troll...

I sure hope Harry and Hertvick don't come back here. The place was
nice and peaceful without their lies, childish name calling and third
grade insults.

They're already back. Can't you smell em? I just took a look over at
Chuck's place. Things are pretty dull over there right now. The babies
haven't been posting much over there lately. Chuck's rule book must be
quelling their enthusiasm. I think they feel this place is more their
element. Let's not make them feel welcome.
Uh uh! This place in in serious need of a good spring cleaning.

My guess is that of Krueger's last 500 posts here, at least 450 are
insults aimed at other posters.

And since you and juimH have returned, not one has not been a snarky post.

Also read the "Fatal Storm" about the Hobart Sydney race. Also a good read.

I guess if one were in a much smaller boat, like a 25'er, one would just
stay on the crest of one of those waves and ride it out.

Until you get caught in the curl and it breaks down on you, or you go
flying off the front edge into the trough. If you haven't done so
already, go read the "Perfect Storm", the book not the movie. There
is almost an entire chapter devoted to all of the ways you can sink a
boat in a storm.

I wonder how many actually go around Cape Horn, and how many go
through the Magellan Strait.

Maybe he wore lace panties to the draft physical. I dodged the draft
by joining the Air Force.

I don't know. The guy who claimed to have done it lurks here, perhaps
he'll answer!
