All the other "sailors" at the marina would always criticize him(or worse, talk behind his back)  after he got thru explaining some technique or idea he was going to use on his solo cruise. They didn't think he could find England by just using "dead reckoning". They were wrong, he knew more about sailing then all the rest of them put together.


The proof is in the pudding.

All those marines are so cocky and close minded ;)

They weren't marines, they were just guys that had enough money to put a boat in the water. Weekend sailors. They just couldn't get it that this guy knew what he was talking about. The sailors in England surely got it, they're probably still talking about it. England has a more nautical heritage than the U.S., they understand how hard it is to sail a boat the size of a bathtub across the Atlantic.

Oops I misread. I just like to take potshots at you as often as possible :P

Let me rephrase. Guys who hang out at the marina are so cocky and close minded. :drinkup:

You're right, it's a good thing I didn't hang out there, I worked there.

There's a funny story about that.

Actually. On second thought, it's not that funny. Nevermind.
