Ok I have never been shy about putting gas(well diesel now :-) on a fire. And the dog house might be getting full with me and bill.....

So I might not not be complety crazzy, but it got me wondering.  first a quote(in honnor of bill)

When trouble arises and things look bad, there is always one individual who
perceives a solution and is willing to take command.  Very often, that
individual is crazy!..

What I was womdering is this: We all have been on the boat and have had our's problems, engine failure, anchor drags, flooding, weater, groundings, mast drops, rolled, lighting, crew injuried, rudder failure, gales and so on. In most cases we are on our own with only self and crew. We know how to cope, jury rig, repair and make do. In the end we also know what has to be sacerficed if else fails. The rules are harsh and help might loosinge boat to slavge. what can happen to the crew goes with saying, I read the report every month. OK I know this, most of us know this.

Now my question, open to any and all, how can me being pissed off offend sensibilities so, I really not so much a surface reaction (bad word or harsh), but not bying a boat from an insiant party? was I ever that new to boating?
