I had a Delta for a while on my old boat but sold it after an experience where it failed to reset after pulling out. Spade and Rocna have both become very popular in recent years because they set well and hold well, even with wind and current changes. Two years ago we road out hurricane Matthew using a combination of a 90 pound Rocna on all chain, and a 65 pound Bruce on 7/8ths nylon. Both held very well in winds over 70 knots. --- This email has been checked for viruses by AVG. http://www.avg.com |

How convenient that a fellow asks a question and you have an answer ready to post...don't forget to tell him how much water your barge draws and how large the fuel tanks are, too. He'll surely be impressed, w'hiner. Your green tint doesn't become you Harry. |

There's nothing about Wayne, his boats, or his life that have the slightest appeal for me. There's no conservative here who has what I value most. |

I have no interest in wayne's style of boating and apparently you don't, either, since you sold off the large boats you owned and apparently hardly ever used. When we retire to Hilton Head, assuming I am still above ground, I'm going to go small with boating, and pick up a 16' or 18' inshore fishing skiff of some sort, perhaps a flat-bottomed Amesbury style dory that will fit on its trailer in the garage and be powered by a 25 hp or so outboard. |

That explains your unsolicited response to Wayne's post. Not. === It was a classic example of 'Airree trying to drive away any newsgroup content that doesn't center on him. Of course he'll deny it. Maybe it's time for another review of narcissistic behavior for the benefit of newcomers: https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/narcissistic-personality-disorder/symptoms-causes/syc-20366662 The Mayo clinic sums things up rather succinctly. Perhaps most telling is this paragraph: ---------------------------------------------- When to see a doctor People with narcissistic personality disorder may not want to think that anything could be wrong, so they may be unlikely to seek treatment. If they do seek treatment, it's more likely to be for symptoms of depression, drug or alcohol use, or another mental health problem. But perceived insults to self-esteem may make it difficult to accept and follow through with treatment. ----------------------------------------------- --- This email has been checked for viruses by AVG. http://www.avg.com |
