Re: Which Forum Member Would You Like To Go Cruising With and Why?

Don't know anybody personally but I would go with polux because he has good taste for plastic boats.




Duck and run

Whats perhaps more important than some brief sail is the lost opportunities to meet some forum people when we have been almost side-by-side.

Just a few weeks ago BoatyBoatman (Phil) had just lobbed into St Martin when I was just lobbing out and we missed a cup 'o tea together.
A few years before I was just 40 nms from Ann and Jim but we couldnt get together... That was in Australia.
Noalex in the Med we were 8 miles apart but it was my fault, bad charts or something...
And Barnacle was in the same bloody marina in the Canary Islands but we didnt get together (it was a while ago and we didnt know each other as well).

So they are some of the lost opportunities... But many times I have bumped into forum people and we always have a bit if fun.

Indeed in the next week or so I am dragging some New York folks on board to get rid of some shonky rum... Just gotta sort a date out. So if you are in the area come on and say hi. I garantee you will be safe - we wont leave the mooring


Mark
Yes, this.

Mark, I'd sail and drink shonky rum with you any time (day trips, of course

I haven't seen Eric from Rebel Heart on here in some time. I think I would enjoy a passage with he and his crew.

Well, I wouldn't go with me since I am an insufferable know-it-all with a condescending manner. And, I am passive-aggressive if need be. So don't sail with sailors like me.
