I received this article today and I think it is interesting reading and presents some very good points. I posted it to share with it with all of my C-Brat colleagues; particularly those of us over 60.

Best regards,
 
So, hey, I kind of resemble that remark! When did "over 60" equate to "on Golden Pond"??!? Or 70 for that matter! (No offense, Dusty!)
 
Hey I noticed that website has a personals want add section...

Male seeking Female
Female seeking Male

Heck a quality outfit like us ought to have some sort of entertainment section...... at least it would help to rid us of politics discussions.

I think Dusty is still wanting to be out on the Blue Pond, isn't he?

I think that's one of them moronic oxens there. Wouldn't having the entertainment section attract the Governor of NY?
 
I notice a lot of the postings in that piece are relating to sailboats. :crook

Always figured those things were too much work to operate.. :smilep

As for age...I may get older, but I'll never grow up. :wink

that was a good read , of course most seniors are probably spending more time on the water than most, cause they are retired , or semi retired & have the time to enjoy hobbies ( as well they should ). except for the lucky few born eith silver spoons in thier mouth, but that i wouldn"t know think i was born with a rusty shovel in mine :wink: ................... john

Jack, that's 'cause the post is on SAILNET.COM.

And no they're not harder to operate, just different. They're quiet, relaxing and fun.

And slooooooow. That's why we've got both! :wink:

Sorry Charlie,

I played "Winch Ape" on a friends boat....It was work! Granted it was quiet and it was slooow...Not my piece of cake. If I want quiet and slow, I put the throttles at 1800.... :wink

that's a lot of information!
i liked the story about the sail boat flying at a blistering 8 knots.
holly s#%*, it's guys like them, way out of control, that give the rest of us boaters a bad name.
great stories, now that i'm bearing down on 59, i can relax and know there are 87 year old captains still going off shore.
somehow life just keeps getting better!
