Go stuff yourself you walking talking bag of whining crap. You offer

nothing
here but idiotic blubbering on a plethora of topics. Your input is absent
and your opinions are worthless.

| Why do you think you need any Radar? Do you often travel in fog?

Are

| A small radar will help a lot if you get caught in Vineyard Sound and

| of the ferry, but it sounds like this would only happen once a year,

if

|
| You can make a case for more powerful radar if you cruise the Maine
Coast

| not for LIS.
|

| You and that Mooron guy (Who can't even spell moron correctly) seem
more

than

|
| Yes, I frequently encounter fog in the LIS, as well as moderate

darkness
| most
| nights. If you had a boat and sailed it, you would be more familiar

with
| these
| concepts.
|
| Thanks anyway, jackass.
