Aloha Cadet,
Welcome aboard!! I can accept you being a teenager if you can accept me being a senior. What questions do you want to answer?
Kind Regards,
JohnL

As John says. Some of us are older or younger than others. Sailing is as you find it just as with people.

I don't give a sh!t about your age as long as you can answer my question.
The problem is that not many folks have questions for teenagers because we have all been there and we have done that a few years ago.
As teenagers we thought we were smart and we knew it all. A few years later we learned that we were indeed dingbats back then and the real wisdom came from experience and reality, and it never stops.
So, uh thanks for the offer, but let your Mom have her keyboard back and don't let her know you posted this.

Sometimes teenagers do know more about some things than adults. Who usually fixes the computer in your house? Uh huh....just what I thought.

Uh, no teens in my house and and I remember myself being pretty stupid back then: My only thoughts was about girls, motorcycles and beer.
No computers back in the 70s.
Instead of going to college or even high school back then, I joined the Merchant Marine and sailed around the world as a 17 year old kid.
Being a horny teenager I went to whore-houses and sleazy bars all over the world and enjoyed my job and my life style, but I did not volunteer to offer assitance to cruising sailors or anybody else.
Not sure where this kid is coming from or what he knows, but I doubt I need his advice...

HI yall
 CSY MAN, i can understand where your coming from, some of my peers are extreamly stupid, not to be rude but I personally have been declared somewhat of a genius at my school in anything to do with the military, SAILING, flying, building, engineering, mechanics, orienteering, science, and history. For the rest of you thank you very much for your statements of acceptance and as i said before if i can be of any help just ask, and if i can't answer your question right off i will tell you the truth and find the answer as quickly and efficiently as possible.
P.S. CSY MAN this is not my mom's computer it is my dad's, he shares my love of the sea and sailing so he won't care, the raeson i'm using his is because mine died and i'm getting a new one for my birthday tomorrow.
