My boat's getting better thanks to you. I think it was you who said my
boat
should have pulleys to pull the jib sheets down. I didn't put on pulleys
because
they cost like 80 dollars but I did put on two fair leads made of plastic
so now
the jib gets pulled down instead of straight back. It hardly flaps at all
anymore.
Hey, and guess what? I can barber haul it now too. :-)
Thanks and hugs.....

Cheers,
Ellen

Yeah, pulleys. You know, those thinga-ma-bobs with the
little wheel inside, for putting a rope thru.

Double yeah! And the ones they wanted to sell me had a spring on the bottom that made it stand up straight.
It swiveled too. It had a bottom part that you bolted to the deck. Very cool but too expensive and strong for
on a little jib like mine. And, it looked like the sheets could get tangled on it. The little plastic fair leads are
smooth and the sheets can't get hung up....


Cheers,

Quite an embarrassing showing. You can do better. PLEASE!

We could if you'd begin posting as Capt. Neal again, instead of hiding
behind a skirt.

Hi. This is the meow-send program at usenet. I'm afraid I wasn't able to
deliver any clue to the following address: lid "Capt.
JG"
This is a permanent error; I've given up. Sorry it didn't work out.

: I haven't seen much from them lately. My filtering pretty much does
: it's thing in the background however.

good. hopefully this means you won't be feebly attempting to netKKKopp
me yet again.

And the gates of this Chapel were shut
And "Thou shalt not," writ over the door;
So I turned to the Garden of Love
That so many sweet flowers bore.

And I saw it was filled with graves,
And tombstones where flowers should be;
And priests in black gowns were walking their rounds,
And binding with briars my joys and desires."
