So...I'm making "the rounds" so to speak. I've seen a few of you here as well as other forums but I really like one that's dedicated to sailing specifically. So...Hi ya'll from a southern bell...Florida native...just learning to sail the gulf's waters!
Hi Donna! I was a Pa.'er too. Spent 20 years growing up in the Valley Forge area. Sometimes I do miss it...except for right around this time of year and for the next 6 months to come. LoL!! But my native Florida kept calling me back and so at 30, I packed up my family and headed south. Now our daughter's married, 2 years through college and just about to head off for her Coast Guard duties. Strange what life deals these days. Anyway....nice to me ya! Hope to learn a lot here!
Thank ya, thank ya...hope it's ok to be a little rambunctious in this forum...some of the others are just...uh...so uptight. Thought that's what I was trying to sail away from in the first place.
Running people up the mast we use a bo'sun's chair and a second, safety line. Keelhauling is taboo here.
Port signal halyard is suitable for private signals.
