Cool, it looks like he's making good progress. Since the winds in the area
are light and variable he must be motoring just like Skippy always does.

It looks like he's coming my way. It will be interesting to see if he takes
the Yacht Channel and proceeds out into Hawk Channel and the Straits of
Florida via the Channel Five bridge or if he heads up the Intracoastal
Waterway to Miami before jumping off to the Bahamas. This time of year, with
thunderstorms popping up everywhere most every morning and afternoon he'd
probably be better off motoring up the Intracoastal and waiting in Miami for
some rare, steady winds for the crossing.

But, if he's like Skippy he'll wait until a flat calm day and motor across
with sails flapping for show.

Wayne gave up being a sailor years ago. Now he sits in his comfy seat at
the helm of a trawler type cruiser...... doesn't even get his hair mussed,
no mater what the conditions.

Nitwit. Wayne's boat is a Grand Banks 49. Of course, he's motoring.
DUH!




Frigging atmosphere and water polluting trawler! That's gross!

It ain't "cruising" (RBC) unless it's under sail. Get a clue, mon! He needs
to find the right newsgroup to post his motorboat crap. Rec.boats is
suitable. Perhaps there's a rec.boats.trawlers?

Yah right! Tell that to Joe Butcher (Red Cloud) who used to type the same
nonsense about the imagined virtues of a pilot house!

Don, you and Harry like to talk about your years of boating, but that is
all you do, talk about it.

Doc Ford books. My wife has read them and was very enthused. One
of these days I'll do likewise but first we've got to get all of these
boat chores finished up. :-)

You're right. I am out on the boat and I do feel better. The
Alaska cruise (courtesy of Princess Lines) was quite nice but there is
really nothing like being out here and plotting your own course.
