Did you ever notice when you drive out of the Key's that the highways get progressively wider! You and Rick have done so much to get the passion you have for catsailing in particular on paper and cyberspace, why put the brakes on now.................Bob Grubb Delray sailors yacht club.

Sorry, Bob, you are going to have to explain. Haven't a clue what you are talking about. I have been trying to be really careful to not get myself in trouble again on this forum. What did I do now?

Okay, Bob, more than 130 people now think I need medication. I'm feeling like a headline on the front of the National Enquirer. Can you PLEASE explain?

Mary,
Maybe we can start a pool to bet on what medication you are missing. Everyone could throw in a couple bucks and a guess...the winner takes all. We'll have to rule out Bob in the pool, since he holds the answer and isn't sharing.

I don't know, Jack. I would be afraid to see some of the medications people might suggest that I need.

You might have enjoyed seeing the boat that a guy launched here today to go "cruising" in the backcountry for a few days. He designed and built it himself. It's a monohull, very shallow draft, hard chines, and it has a gaff rig sail and he has a small outboard on the back. It's set up to enclose fully for sleeping, sort of like the pop-top on one of those old VW campers, but much more elegant. He car-tops the whole thing on a small car. Name of his boat is "Slocum's Hornpipe," because Joshua Slocum is his hero.

He is going to go out to Nest Key just to check it out, so I showed him your picture of the dock with the luxurious restrooms.

The mystery of this very cryptic post has been solved. Apparently, it should have been posted in the thread with the poll about cash prizes. I had said I wanted to vote that they were bad, and he apparently thinks that they are good. Unfortunately, he took my vote to mean that I have an opinion, which I don't.

Okay, now that we have got this thread straightened out (and, I hope, concluded), for the rest of my response about this, please go to the thread about the cash prizes, so I can get things back on track. Bob, instead of clarifying this thread by posting an answer in this thread, clarified it with a post on that other thread, which further complicated things.

Over and out.
