Things you will never hear a British sailor's wife say

[dylanwinter]

Here is my starter

"if you buy a smaller boat I would sail with you more often"

 

[SimbaDog]

Let's cancel the new kitchen & buy sails for the boat

 

[dylanwinter]

I love these meals

I love these meals where you throw the cans into the hot boiling water

it tastes so much better straight out of the can

 

[srp]

Oh great, no stinky sea toilet to clutter up the cabin.

 

[CoVianna]

Of course you can buy those new sails* darling.

* or outboard, inboard, anchor, radar etc

"Yes, I know we're being paranoid and the boats fine. But let's leave the decorating to go check anyway. The 5 hour round trips nothing really"

The electric windlass was a waste of money, I prefer the exercise of raising the anchor!

just as nice

this early in the year Felixtowe Harbour can be just as nice as the BVI's

''Don't bother reefing, I love cooking at 45 degrees and I won't need the loo for hours yet''

 

[OGITD]

Girls, unless you are 'Ms Olympia', tell HIM to:

Go forward dear and standby to pick up the buoy.

 

[flawed_logic]

Lets put the spinnaker up, we can go even faster!

 

[clyst]

No need for me to go before we cast off darling I won' need to use the heads for ages.

 

[Peroo]

Darling, there's a sale on at the chandlers, shall I take you?

 

[Grumpybear]

Of course you can buy those new sails* darling.

Delete this one. At the beginning of this season, my proposal to buy a new genoa was modified thus: "if we buy a main as well we might get a better deal overall". We did.

She's obviously not a sailor's wife, she's a sailor.

 

[aquaplane]

No I don't need a pony tail in before we cast off, I like it when my hair blows in my mouth.

I'm too warm down here I'm coming out there.

I hope you replied.

"if we get a better deal with a main and Genoa, we'll get a really good one if we ask for an asymmetric as well"

Don't try this at home ...

...... in our Hawk 20, beating in 28 knots last weekend, wind against tide, my wife said absolutely nothing at all.

Speechless. How rare was that?

And really very very wet......

 

[yoda]

In my house

I think I will come sailing with you this weekend....

 

[Billows]

The forecast looks perfect.Let's skip Julie's wedding and go sailing.
