Would a sailboat be a good place to be

IDK, about the only thing worse than a pissed off wife is a pissed off zombie wife...

Question:

A zombie has boarded from the aft, your wife is in the cockpit plastered in fear against the cabin. You've also left your bottle of rum resting on the companionway hatch while you went forward to take a whiz.

Is the zombie making its first move toward your wife, or your bottle?

Which one do you protect?

I mean, it'd be one thing if they got my wife, but if they got my booze...

If the wife is 'plastered' then the rum bottle is probably empty - go for the wife!

Rookie mistake- you put down the bottle. Never let go of the bottle, and you never have to wonder whether the zombie is after the broad or the booze.

It has been a long while since I last visited Sailnet, it seems to have gotten weirder. I like it.

Something it seems no one is considering when repelling zombies is the strong possibility of zombies being able to operate powerboats at a very high skill level. Basing my assesment on the current skill levels of powerboaters, I think it would be unlikely that zombies would do worse and more than likely that zombies would perform better.

The obvious solution to dispatching powerboats filled with beer swilling bikini clad zombies is the molotov cocktail.
Some would suggest using gasoline in their molotov but that means at some point you will end up rowing your dinghy.
I recommend using rum (or rhum if you prefer). Many would consider using the potent potable in such a manner to be near sacrilige, but how often can you use the excuse
"I'm preparing for the zombie apocalypse"
to buy unlimited quantities of rum.(not that you need an excuse)
An additional benefit is that in the unlikely even of the zombie apocalypse not happening... you still have unlimited quantities of rum.
In corporate circles, that is known as a win/win.
