What Women Want

[Starbuck]

Ocean Girl, she say:
I know what I want...well at least for today .

This is why men drink.

If you tip her over the seas are not likely to be conducive to messing about in a half submerged boat. I’d take my chance in a proper life raft.
I agree with Richard as well, Jeff’s list is not exclusive to women; what about the old nautical idiom, “Gentlemen never beat to windward.”

Maybe you can mate...what about building a wooden/ply epoxy tri or cat.

or I can go to the US and buy a 40+ ft mono for the cost of a toy 18 ft cat. I just need someone to help sail it back.

Why don't I start a post "What men want" then give my personal preferences as the view of the male of the species. Would make me feel like a narcisistic megalomaniac. My wife entirely disagrees with your opinion, she is very much a woman.

Why don't you post your "Quote:" narcisistic (Syn: egotistic, egotistical,self-loving) megalomaniac ( n : a pathological egotist), "What men want" on the Mono Thread, nothing stopping you. Sure to make you feel better...

This is 'CatGirl's Post', respect her opinion...lighten up. tongaboys
ps: 'narcissistic' is spelt with two s's

[forsailbyowner]

I totally respect catwomans opinion. Just wasn't sure if it was the opinion of womanhood in totality. Especially since wife definately took exception. A multitude of viewpoints is what makes this forum interesting. Didn't accuse any one of anything, just how I'd feel and that's just my opinion. I have great respect for the bravery of people who would venture offshore in a cat.

Jolly Roger isn't so jolly!

Catwoman was only trying to get some attention to sell her other cat - IMO

I think forsailbyowner's interpretation of the post was off the mark, but maybe catwoman could clarify that.

The direction of the thread isn't getting her cat for sale much attention

[Golden Wattle]

Randy I agree with your point re: Selling the boat.

What "women want", that is irrelevent.
The point is, what does your wife/partner/friend want.........that is the only answer a man needs to "WORRY" about.

Sounding off about cats versus monos is old hat, and cannot be settled either way, since it always comes down to personal opinion and preference. I don’t see it has the slightest relevance to what women want - assuming you somehow know what all women want? OK, you have more sailing qualifications than most men – so what; your opinion is no more or less than just that – your opinion.

Jolly Roger...The object is selling a Boat, It's CatGirl post, your a wee bit insensitive don't you think?

The classified section is a good place to sell a boat...
