Should a mobo skipper always give way to raggies

[oceanfroggie]

Pete you deserve a perfect score of 10's for your unstinting, persistent and unwavering service to anti-Raggie stink pots and fostering the cause of enduring difference between yottie blazer toting traditional 'give way' shouting racing extremists and speedimg motor cruising yachtsmen toting tastless bling blue led lighting all over their gold medallion emblazoned gin palaces. A career becons on the UN Security Council. They may solve the many middle east conflicts long before sail and power are in harmony. . On here anyway!

Give 5 blasts on the twin trumpet 143dB Kahlenbergs. Opposing traffic will drop everything to shield their ears so the way naturally clears....

This has to be sentence of the year.
Well played!

is this a reference to raggies testosterone levels or to the fact that most raggie crews are male because their wimin can't accept the discomfort and general unpleasantness of raggie cruising?

I'm not sure I ever want to meet a part-male raggie? Which parts are male and are the other parts female, androgynous, hermaphroditic or neutered? This isn't a reference to the unfortunate chap who had an incident with his snap-davits is it? I thought that his damage was repairable.

Proper beer should be served at room temperature.

Blooming well shouldn't - cellar temperature, please. 12-13ºc is about right.

OOOps forgot to mention there is a set of sails drying on the pontoon causing a partial blockage

If I put my sails on the pontoon they block it totally!

Would have to be little dinghy sails or something, to leave room for one trolley.

With equal distance to the gap the lean, lithe and well exercised raggie crew will get there long before the lazy, beer bellied stinkie crew have even built up a head of steam.

No contest!

No contest!

But the raggies stop at each and every anchor and debate the virtues of each variation

Dont worry about leaving your sails drying on a pontoon they dont totally block it, as long as laid flat we can just trolley over them. Its only when they are partially hung over the bow of a boat the problems start, they can get tangled up in the trolley wheels
