we had the express pleasure of witnessing Kate as it was forming. 55kts winds, 8 foot seas, my legs still are muscle sore. I noticed that there were 3 CATS out in that mess with me...all with sails UP...full...no reef.
I had the pleasure of meeting one of those "captains" on the way back from the islands on the ferry.
They SUBMERGED their dingy after it flipped. Then went on to describe all the rigging they broke. How the Bimini got torn off.
Closing comment, "Glad we don't own that boat" and got off with their deposit.
Then they asked where we keep our boat in charter? I will save my answer to your imaginations. <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/duh.gif" alt="" /> <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/duh.gif" alt="" /> <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/duh.gif" alt="" /> <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/duh.gif" alt="" /> <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/duh.gif" alt="" /> <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/duh.gif" alt="" />
