Re: Stealth mode - New Generation Ropes

A cow hitch! Duh! We’ve been using soft shackles to stow lines on our arch. A cow hitch would make it much easier to execute.

Re: Why aren't there cruising report threads?

You might be interested in the "Destinations" sub-forum, especially the sailor logs and cruising plans section. There's some good info occasionally in the region-specific sections, also.
