Boat Forum / Sailing / February 2005

Gracious Captain Neal,
Yesterday I removed the head door and the bulkhead between the head and
v-berth.  As my boat is winterized an hour away from my home, I brought all
of my cushions home so my upholsterer could measure them.

Everything was great except the wind. Got a couple of miles out of the
Harbor and it quit. Drifted for about 1/2 hour then made a cup of tea
and lunch. (About an hour) Couldn't hold a heading so fired up the
engine and came in.

what type, size-range and manufacturers to concentrate on. I have no
experience of sailing to date, but plan to put that right with several
intensive courses once the weather improves.

I've just bought a boat in Holyhead and will be sailing her to the Thames
but probably not 'til the weather gets a bit better and work allows, maybe
late april early may. Anyone know where I can get a cheap mooring? I seem to
remeber seeing something about Milford Haven recently, ...

Ever prepared yourself some Jello Flan.
It comes in a little box like their puddings and you
mix it with milk and cook it to boiling. Then you pour
it in a bowl on top of the caramel syrup that comes

I'm looking for a diesel or paraffin heater for my boat. I'm not to worried
as to make but I would like one that can be bulkhead mounted.
Somebody said think about solid fuel heaters. Does anyone have any
experience of these?

This is bad news for terrorists and liberals like Oz and Bobsprit, alike.
What's good news for Iraq and the USA is bad news for the liberals.
Read it and weep all you pathetic loser liberals.

Mooron, Neal, Joey, Horass, and few others are no sailors. What have you
been doing all day? NOTHING but playing with yourselves. Bwahahahaaaa...  I
went sailing. I come back and I see 200+ posts, most of it foul language
from Mooron (the closet homosexual) and presumably Neal. ...
