Are Cats that Great?

I feel the love man!....

Hmph! If you go to wireless, you can use a 4 port router! All the laptops can use the wireless that way and you can connect the gaming computers via the 1 gig ports. (I personally only have one full size gaming computer on board! The issue is the heat! went to water cooling to solve that.) I haven't been having much luck with my extender of late. I am currently using a USB LinkSys wireless. I can position that for maximum reception. Seems to work better than the extender!.

I don't however have an electric dishwasher on board!

And oh yeah, I like dogs a bit better than cats, but my wife won't let me get a Doberman.

cruising kat---LOL---the best kind

[jdoe71]

That is one sweet kitty. We have a cruising cat too, he is great company for us and makes the boat feel more like home.

If you are not happy, then you need to analyse your own needs and see what meets those needs best without any preconceptions - otherwise your analysis is flawed.

Personally, if your hull is not coloured cream, I reckon your boat will sink and it must be slower, wetter and less comfortable than mine.

You are indeed a wise man Talbot....not that I say to to everyone who agrees with me, which sadly now only adds up to 2

When the Americas Cup was on down here, the one full of Monos , our Viaduct Basin where most of the Superboats (again all monos) were parked was known to the locals as 'Small Penis Land'

What's all this 2 washing machine bits? I tend to use a far more masculine way to wash mine. A onion sack with all your dirty stuff in it and then towed about 5mls works bloody wonders and far better for the environment. About 8mls if you have been doing a engine service but only 1-2mls if you chuck your dirty dishes in. Does pay to go a bit slower when you have the plates in though

Berated? I just read this thread and have to say that for an Aussie you're a bit sensitive as there's no 'berating' going on here. I love my boat, but I like monos too. I sail both and prefer the cat. It's that simple.

Oh.. I see. You want a catamaran, you dream of catamarans, but you can't afford a catamaran. So is this thread really about catamaran envy?


Someone already said it. This thread is a waste of time.

meyemm,

Where's that video????????????????????.........i2f

[S&S]

Oops!



They're roomy, but it seems I'm always going to windward anyway.

[Canibul]

Well, at least the ton of lead in a monhull makes it level for the short time it's in the water column, anyway..

[paradix]

I swear I have a picture exactly like that from when I visited Seaworld... Go Shamu!

[Canibul]

Well, here's another one. Nice monohull. Here in the Turks and Caicos Islands...

I have never mentioned a video about anything on any post but why let fact get in the way. Forget the fact that all I was trying to do was get people to read the article but instead all I have received is crap directed at me. All bar one so far has not even read the piece, a bit like not seeing a movie but saying it is crap just because you may not like the story line.

Can you tell me how to pull it up? I didn't see a link.

Unfortunately it is an Australian Publication called Cruising Helmsman. They have a web site which may help for those OS. www.mysailing.com.au
