I have a feeling the longer he waits to tell it, the worse it is going to get.

Yikes! That was pretty arrogant. Guess we won't be getting that update from Hiva Or anytime soon.

Re: Rebel Heart's Contribution to the Cruising Community

It does seem like each day a new inconsistency or contradiction show up, and combined with the silence from RH things sure are looking funny. At some point you can no longer ignore the elephant in...

I think the guy said "could" have been, not "would" have been.

Re: Rebel Heart's Contribution to the Cruising Community

Funny you should suggest this. I had a PM from another member yesterday suggesting the same thing. It could explain a lot. And it certainly wouldn't be the first time this sort of thing has...

I forgot. We are suppose to wait for the book to come out with the "real story".

Re: Rebel Heart's Contribution to the Cruising Community

I'm wondering what Eric would have done if the kid had not become sick. Would he have pushed the button for a rescue anyway or sailed on?

Nice to see some serious questions finally being raised. The glad handing was getting to me as well.

Re: Rebel Heart's Contribution to the Cruising Community

That's your opinion, but this is still an open Internet forum where we are free to pose questions. You may not like that but I don't particularly care for people telling me what my business is...

Re: Rebel Heart's Contribution to the Cruising Community

You don't have to read them you know. You are free to sit on the sidelines and wait for the first hand version to come out.

Re: Rebel Heart's Contribution to the Cruising Community

It's real simple. Some of us are trying to reconcile what we were told in the beginning about the boat versus what the press conference/rescuers said versus post-rescue blogs by the owners. They...

Re: Rebel Heart's Contribution to the Cruising Community

Of course. Nobody is saying we have a "right" to know, and obviously they can tell what they want and when. But at the same time this is a public sailing forum and people are going to ask and we...

Re: Rebel Heart's Contribution to the Cruising Community

Really? I beg to differ. This is a sailing forum, a boat was supposedly in dire straits and ended up being scuttled. Why? .. I think is relevant to me, and others I'm sure would like to know.

If you want to know so little, why are you still hanging around here? Just to harass those that do?

Re: Rebel Heart's Contribution to the Cruising Community

We certainly have the Right to ask.

We've been hearing "wait to hear from them", "give them space/time". Well, they have found time to blog and post on FB and here, but no time to tell us...

Re: Rebel Heart's Contribution to the Cruising Community

Why is it such a mystery still?

Initially, we heard no steering, no comms, taking on water, torn sails, no engine … but nothing much about any of that in the press conference. In fact, contrary...

Re: Rebel Heart's Contribution to the Cruising Community

I just have one question … was the boat in danger of sinking or not? In fact, was there anything really wrong with the boat?

If they do, more power to them, but I didn't read that anywhere. What did I miss?

Re: Rebel Heart's Contribution to the Cruising Community

I really didn't understand reposting that vile email. But her description on life on the boat was much different than the rescuers version. And I don't think it was the military being stoic, and if...

Re: Rebel Heart's Contribution to the Cruising Community

Are you suggesting that they downplayed the condition of and on the boat?
