A real cockpit will keep you cool and dry, offer the Capt'n a place to
work in comfort even if you are motorsailing at 9 kts out of the eye of
a wicked storm with a full set of sails.

Joe, that's a good troll, but c'mon!!! Take better pics than that and
we'll all have more fun. If you don't have the pic to support the
troll, then wait a while until you can get one. My best trolls are
supported by reasonable pics.

Pleeeze Bob. I did not take the photo. But you can see it is storming,
my hand is on the throttle, And I'm turning upwind. Clearly running out
of a vicious storm. All in the cool AC comfort of a real cockpit that
even Navy fighter pilots envy.

Oh and BTW we fished all the way thru the storm, Hooked up with a nice
King Mackerel, as you can see in our wake, we outran the storm. No one
was skeered either.

Joe;

Do you think Nutsy could stand a 4 hour storm watch standing on the
transom helm seat?? (G)

Questions for Thom:

1) Why would I stand there instead of sitting in the cockpit?
2) How many 4 hour storm watches will I likely need to complete sailing
in the LIS?

Nutsy??

4 boats and How Many Years??? You haven't completed LIS yet and you
never will! Sorry Nutsy but your type of sailing is more suited to an
Etchell and bunks in your SUV. Doug's Trailer Sailer would be perfect
for you. AND you wouldn't have to stand on the seat (g)

By the way, Nutsy, you just BUSTED about Umpteen Pages of you Stupid
Trolls with that question.

Scotty's right about "Never out of LIS"
The Whole of ASA is correct about your ??Helm Station??
Kind of "Wipes Out" your need for a Nav Station
Shackles & Thimbles (Smile)
Rear State Room?
Hell; Nutsy, you need a trailer not a boat. A pull-out, AC, Dish TV
Equip., Genset .Trailer. Think of the Moorage Fees you'd save.

As they say; Rolling On the Floor Laughing My Ass Off!

Thom, there's always a few bums who want to tell other folks how to
play with their toys. If I choose to only daysail a 60 foot cruiser,
that's my business...so long as it makes me happy. This is why I never
lose here and I focus my trolls on the boats, not on how they use them.
I make special exceptions for Scott Vermon because he's really a giant
turd and his boat is on stands.
We love sailing and it makes us happy. Move along.

Nutsy,

You Stated;
We love sailing and it makes us happy. Move along. -------------

I know you do, and so do many,many others. Good & Bad sailors, with as
much love of sailing as you.

Scotty, Doug, Mooron, Jeff, Maxi, Dave;--- just a few that will disagree
about just attacking their boats. I can't think of any of them BUSTING
THEMSELVES with their own posting like you do.

Nutsy, relax and go sailing; "TAKE A BRAKE!" You need it.

The whole of ASA appreciate you taking the role of "Kickme" I do and
I've stated it but Nutsy you need a "Brake!"

Go sailing and relax. That's what boats are for. Our kind of boats
anyway.

You've got a good boat enjoy it, for what it is. Stop making claims for
it that can't hold up. Your "Benny" is loaded with short comings but
that doesn't make it a bad boat. You're right on about it being a fun
boat. It is a damn fine day sailer and Week-ender. That's how you use
it. Good!
It doesn't need a big Cockpit.

Nutsy, we don't give a ****. Most of us don't even give a **** about the
Stupidity of your Trolls. You are a master at making us reply. THANK
YOU!!

Nutsy,

I have to Agree with you. You need time away from this "Discussion
Group", you're definitely getting much to easy. Everybody's kicking your
ass.

TAKE A BRAKE!!!!

And;------ "I'LL DRINK TO THAT!!"




http://community.webtv.net/tassail/ThomPage

I've done 22 hours on the helm, at the tiller, except for a brief stint solo
on the foredeck to change headsail .... sailing through a storm all
night... blowing 35 to 40..... going upwind.... no engine at all.... narrow
channel... remote location..... no running lights.... 6 of us aboard.

I dropped hook at 0618hrs in Devil's Channel.... drank half a bottle of rum,
scowled at the crew and hit the bunk.... lights out.

That's a sail I remember..... fondly

I was pinned down in the Catalina 27 cockpit by a pretty Polish girl
for 45 minutes once. I couldn't hear a thing through her thighs, the
boat was rocking in strong gusts of winds and the launch was out of
service...that's a night I'll always remember too.
