Prefer essential cannabis oil

.... but then I prefer free winds and an open sea ... on any boat: I'd rather take any BenJenBav over an Island Packet or an 'improved' Bristol Channel Cutter anywhere ... I'd even prefer to redo a Frank Dye and take a Wayfarer with a primus and a tent ... or I could emulate Shipton or Tillman and go cruise on porridge.....

No. Give me a Farr 50 and all the luxury that goes with it and then I'll show you how to make baggywrinkle and then smoke it.

Re: And when you\'re done..

My stick needs to come down and go back up again, there's a two or three complicated electronic gizmo's with complicated installation manuals that need deceiphering and installing, so while the antifouling is drying, head down here and give me a hand.

There's a fridge full of beers, a cellars worth of wine and a bottle or two of the Scottish stuff... /forums/images/icons/smile.gif

Re: Watermaker

Take one. But don't rely on it, they do break.

Apparently, the three busiest people in any Atlantic landfall ports (after the bar tender and the shower attendant) are the watermaker repair man, the autopilot repair man and the instrument repair man.

When you\'re alone with a phone ....

Who comes? It's down to you and simple tools: Number one tool, IMO, is the water gathering tent - Without water we are ****ed. We can squeeze water out of fish ... but it's far easier to be drinking water comfortable.

Nunber 2 tool kit is the sail mending kit.

Number 3 is the SSB.

Number 4 is an EPIRB

Re: No 2

No 2 is actually the Aries wind vane IMHO

Re: No 2 ... OUCH!

Use a Cape Horn ...Vive la difference - Und gesundheit, die beiden sind besser als ein Windlospilot. (PF - eat your heart out .... the Cape Horn works wonders where a Pacific Light doesn't - especialy down wind in light airs)
