Do you not think navigation is the key to everything?

I call myself Nav. beacuse I am not the Captain, just a member of the
crew. In that regard I may be unusual as there many Captains here.

To answer your second question, the number of sailors who can navigate
well by DR is small.


Now, why do you call yourself "Lady"

Seriously, I'd like to know why some sailor would call themselves

Are there many sailors out there that can't navigate?

Sniff. Of course you did.


I'll toss you a bone... 2/3 common putty and 1/3 white lead..... Gaps- less

Now... do you caulk a boat wet or dry? Why?


Yes, why don't you tell us. You seem to be enjoying yourself.

That's what our marriage is based on.

Isn't everyone? That's just too easy.

I'd prefer to be a Sterling millionaire.

Yes, why don't you tell us. You seem to be enjoying yourself.

Oky Doky.... you caulk a dry boat.... but not more than a season on the
skids other wise the strakes will need to be re-soaked for 12 hours and then
air dried for a few days. You want to apply just enough caulking so that
when the strakes swell they pinch the caulking flat to the strake.
Bulged caulking is a sign of poor craftsmanship.

Here's another piece of info... when you replace strakes... seasoning should
be done by sinking the planks at mid tide level and allowing the tide to
soak and dry them for a week prior to laying to and nailing the strake to
shape.

Glad I could be of help.... now if you could be of some assistance.... I
was taking Construction Documentation Photos for a report and I can't seem
to get a decent photo of the bridge work without 'red-eye'. What should I
do?
