He just looks if they sail F16 or not...

Hey ! that is not true. I seem to remember advicing an M4.3 to someone lately and giving in dept describtions of various A-cats to anothers. Hell, I'm working my way through 50 pictures of A-cats that were at the Gulport regatta in order to publish them on the internet. To the enjoyment of all.

I will pick a fight with silly claims and some classes seem to put of those out then others, but you won't see me give unfounded statements or blindly force everybody to F16's. I've pointed my fair share of crews to other designs, as in when their personal circumstances favoured a different design. Latest example Mystere 4.3

You guys have to give me more credit.

Wouter

Am I know picking a fight with you ? Ohh dear I am bad !

Yep, that's what we like....

BTW that remark could only come from an American....

The problem is only the guys like to do that....

Another problem is the rash from the anti-slip when sailing naked..

....and I was wondering why I was stopped/picked at the custums in the US????

Nope, us rednecks would lose that "signature tan" of ours.

I mean, what woman WOULD NOT find a guy with a big, fat, pink, hairy belly and Dark red arms and neck sexy? Oh yeah, don't forget the "man boobs"

[Linked Image]

Drunk rednecks with guns. WHAT could possibly be more sexy?

Proof that Darwin was wrong...

Actually, there is a pretty good sailor here that makes minimum weight (by himself) on the N20.

He'd do better singlehanding if he had four hands (for all the control lines), but he's not bad in light air.

As for the link between Indians and Polynesians, I'm fairly sure that you won't find anything. Guns Germs and Steel uses linguistic and archaeological evidence to show that the
Polynesians developing their sailing technology on Taiwan and spread from there.

Public apologies are always embarrassing. Nevertheless, it is time.

Alex, my apologies, I was wrong.

A little penninsula off of Saudi Arabia into the Persian gulf right? I hear it is a very wealthy, modern and beautiful country.
I listened to a news story on Quatar not long ago. They interveiwed the emir. He seemed to genuinely care for his people. I think it would be a nice place to live. Your soccer twins did well.

Don't you know by now that all you have to do to understand DSYC is to use an online translater:

"Nice bit.....Hup Hup Heerenveen Fryslan above everything,US Mem, US Hiet, Oranje above oranje above long it lives kings drawer drawer drawer lallaaaalla....... "

Now you have it

Yeah, just be glad DSYC wasn't drinking when he made that post. It goes downhill from there. I think the only one that can understand him is the Bengalizer when he had a few.

He can't help it, he is from Friesland [which translates as Frostcountry]which is in the north of The Netherlands. I can not understand him either when he speaks his native tongue.. We are trying to get rit of this whole Friesland, but neither Germany nor Denmark wants to have it.

pst. I have to admit, It is very beautiful sailing over there

I did not know the "Bangalizer" could type and read at the same time! Now there, is the missing link he actually needs to join in here.
