shagged out

[powerskipper]

what would you define as a shagged out boat.



was used by someone else in another post and got me thinking, what do you call a shagged out boat.

 

[studgies]

to me it would mean knackered worn out and not much good..............maybe I am just strange /forums/images/graemlins/blush.gif)

Shagged : having a very rough nap or covered with hanging shags

Out: to state openly and publicly one's homosexuality; "This actor outed last year"


So I guess it a very rough gay boat /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

 

[[2068]]

One where there is something wrong with everything.

hull a bit creaky, bendy stringers or wobbly bulkeads
soggy or flexible decks
engines shot
outdrives on the way out
mouldy and tired furnishings
gelcoat faded & scratched
ancient electrics, esp ancient botched electrics
leaky water system
leaking and corroded windows
stained headlinings
rusty fuel tanks

Most boats of any age have some of the above.
If you have ALL of the above, then it could be time to upgrade...

the one owned by Peter Stringfellow I would think...

 

[totopalm]

Mine is "Shagged" in

Oooerr, mine's a virgin.

 

[Pinnacle]

One where so much is not fit for its intended purpose ( hull, engines, electrice, rig etc ) that the cost of putting things right would just not be sensible. That does not mean no-one will take sucha project on - just look at the old wooden boats that have been beauuuutifully restored - but in purely economic terms its not worth it.

[powerskipper]

[boatone]

Oh dear.....would you like to reconsider?

Little boat entered thru big boats PORT side.......so would have been give way vessel in any normal circumstance.

 

[duncan]

ah but the little one was at anchor and the big one attacked it using bow and stern thrusters assisted by a F10 wind........... /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif

but I am with you the other 99.999% of the time!

Give way vessel

Looks like the topsides of the big one gave way quite satisfactorily! /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif
