BTW, since you don't even race, what do you use it for, besides poking
in the mud?


I rest my case. Horvath has no idea how a whisker pole is used.

More help for Horvath....

You'll note the use mentioned for cruisers...whisker poles are quite useful. We
use our for wing & wing all the time.

Busted by your boyfriend on a regular basis I'd guess.

Here's what you wrote, Horvath..

That would mean you have a whisker pole that extends to over twelve
feet. Sounds like bull**** to me.


BUSTED!!!

Busted what? I didn't say that they didn't make them to extend
further.

Pathetic Earthlings! No one can save you now!

Maybe he uses it for "other things."

Why would you go wing & wing if you weren't racing? Obviously you
need one for windward leewards while racing JAM. But wing & wing is
the slowest point of sail, and if you were out for a daysail, you
wouldn't want to.

Going dead downwind is slow, sweaty, and uncomfortable. Unless you
were racing, it's a poor direction to pick.

The bottom line here is that you are just a ****head, who's making up
stuff as he goes along. You've been busted bigtime.

What an idiot. We've sailed wing and wing many times because it's the direction
we "needed" to go. It's not hard if you can steer your boat and it's not
uncomfortable. In some conditions it can be challenging, but that probably
makes no sense to a Hunter barge owner.
A sailboat can sail in any direction off the wind and a sailor should be
skilled on all points of sail. Clearly you're not!
Topics like this expose Horvath very limited knowledge of boats and sailing.
Like I said, BUSTED!

But is very pretty and relaxing....

When you guys attack him on credible stuff, it takes away from your
position...stick to his real stupidities, there are enough of them.

What a dumbass remark....wing-on-wing takes skill to make the set...and the
world isn't all about fast all the time...if it was, none of us would be
sailing, that's for sure...
