Tell me yours and I'll tell ya mine
First day out on the new sailboat, and I lost my charcoal grill grating, food, coals and cover overboard. I somehow forgot to attach the dummy cord.
Few minutes later when I was hauling up the anchor, since dinner was ruined, I lost a Skegen wrist watch which just literally popped off, then I turned and dropped a winch handle from the pocket at the mast, it bounced once, hung on the toe rail for a minute, as if to say "goodbye dummy" and then it went ker-pluk down to davy's.
Well, at least I haven't lost anything else since then!
Do you use a miracle cloth to polish the stainless steel martini glass ?, lolMike-
There are three kinds of sailors-those who have run aground and admit it; those who have run aground and are lying about it; and those who just sit at the dock, drinking martinis out of their stainless steel martini glasses.
Shoot.... I've done some of that with my trailer sailboat.... 7800# dead empty and built like a fracking tank. 2 kts into the trailer will keep you from getting your feet wet because you can just shoot up the trailer bunks like an overweight Shamu until you stop into the forward bracket! HAHAHAI'm glad I'm getting most of this crap out my system before I go buy a bigger, more expensive and probably more tender boat like that C380.
