Link 2000- another question -- Rodd L -- 5/15/2012, 7:18 am
Couple of things? -- SG -- 5/15/2012, 8:30 pm
I'd never heard of that and happy to have done so. Forgot about the solvent, WD 40...... -- Westcoaster -- 5/15/2012, 7:06 am
everything can be controlled through the battery switch -- jnorth -- 5/15/2012, 6:50 am

who are the asshats? -- Jerry Levy -- 5/15/2012, 4:46 am

well, if you want to talk about common sense -- Jerry Levy -- 5/15/2012, 4:26 pm
The Harbor Master isn't ruled by common sense -- Larry - DH -- 5/15/2012, 7:05 pm
what I would do -- Jerry Levy -- 5/16/2012, 4:46 am
That's asking a bit much -- Larry - DH -- 5/16/2012, 4:53 am
Also, the story said he's tried to contact the skipper -- Larry - DH -- 5/16/2012, 5:07 am
not asking too much at all -- Jerry Levy -- 5/16/2012, 5:10 am
How do you, we, or the Harbormaster "know full well"... -- Jon Eisberg -- 5/16/2012, 4:42 am
there's no reason to think she'd sink -- Jerry Levy -- 5/16/2012, 4:57 am
I suppose you're right... -- Jon Eisberg -- 5/16/2012, 5:22 am
that's just damaged fairing -- Jerry Levy -- 5/16/2012, 5:33 am
There's enough reason to believe every unattended boat is sinking at anchor Jerry. -- Tom Young -- 5/16/2012, 7:40 am
Sooner or later -- Paul D -- 5/16/2012, 7:47 am
yep, there's the same reason to think that EVERY boat in the water -- Jerry Levy -- 5/16/2012, 8:10 am
Absolutely! A boat left unattended on a mooring all season is irresponsible. -- Tom Young -- 5/16/2012, 8:11 am
It's not even a US flagged vessel? -- SG -- 5/15/2012, 3:42 pm
Jon is just trying to build the hype -- D'Arcy, Islay Mist C&C27 -- 5/15/2012, 5:52 am
...yeah, Jon wants it alright. -- Ron Chappell -- 5/15/2012, 6:16 am
she IS an impressive boat -- Jerry Levy -- 5/15/2012, 6:34 am
I met the skipper ... -- jnorth -- 5/15/2012, 6:40 am
you say that as if -- Jerry Levy -- 5/15/2012, 2:07 pm
he was weird even for the Newport cruising crowd.... -- jnorth -- 5/15/2012, 8:15 pm
I think that's an exageration about unusual weirdness being the norm. -- SG -- 5/15/2012, 8:40 pm
you are damaging my reputation -- Jerry Levy -- 5/16/2012, 5:19 am
At what point might your view change...? -- Jon Eisberg -- 5/16/2012, 5:56 am

Homeport on her transom, at least after being towed into Bermuda... -- Jon Eisberg -- 5/16/2012, 6:42 am
LOL! Ahh, if she were only 5 feet shorter... -- Jon Eisberg -- 5/16/2012, 7:05 am
You fly your own warning flags... wow I am impressed. -- GeneC -- 5/16/2012, 12:07 pm
Jon, you will obviously need to buy a bigger house with more waterfront. -- D'Arcy, Islay Mist C&C27 -- 5/16/2012, 1:54 pm
The XAR -- Maine Sail -- 5/15/2012, 3:16 am
I thought I had the "Balmar" or (what became the) XAR -- SG -- 5/15/2012, 4:56 am
