There just seems to be more nuance to all this than is being presented.
OK Smack, I am the guy that told Jody that tied off to a rail was a bad idea. I also told him to have a harness under his jacket was a bad idea, do you disagree? Do you think that was bad advice? Would you please post where "Skip" cliipped to a rail?

I am getting tired of you, you want people to spoon feed you information and then you question it. Make some type of effort to learn something on your own, like getting out on a boat.

Go out "there" MR. big f'in sailer man. Just go!!!!! if you make it back, you may have intelligent questions. !!!!!!
