thats alot of work just to get all you girls at my port...but we are talking the cream of the crop here(ssssm ladys)...and no way could i pick just one of you(well i could but that would hurt the feelings of the ones not chosen and i hate hurt feelings..and of course if i picked you all the other guys would piss and moan) cause you are all perfect in your own way. but it would be interesting to meet....thus i single hand. forever

Dont believe yer perfect? Well heres how i see it.... If you werent perfectly yourself....you would not be yourself. you would be some one you are not. not saying thats bad or good. just sayin

I may be always me, but right now I'm channeling Brooke Shields in Blue Lagoon! Just another mermaid.

Margo
the way the hurricanes are training up in the atlantic....we might not have to wait for the water to rise.....just hoist yer main and tie the genny's corners togather and put her atop the mast parachute style....You'd prolly miss me and land in Kansas...lol

But seriously keep an eye on it...the pattern looks well organized and powerfull

Thanks, Steel. So far, all are taking the dogleg out to sea, but I take your point. I'm about to move a bit farther north in search of a more secure hurricane hole.

And how far north might that be? There are some good, safe places up my way (NC). Savannah - Charleston has some good spots, too. Under the right circumstances, I might help you sail out of harms way!
