All of our dogs have had nautical names: Scuppers, Mizzen, Skipjack, Pinafore (as in H.M.S. also only small dog we ever owned), Burgee and Compass Rose (goes by Rose). Skipjack, Burgee and Rose were/are Chesapeake Bay Retrievers.

Watching Ferrari take away two position from Leclerc was not fun. Last year team decisions hurt them when they were faster. This year it just moves them down the pack.

Brilliant drive, bad luck. $$it happens.

Qualifying: New kid on the block!

I thought the apology was more about the embarrassment of being caught, not that he did anything wrong.

Close, the sun is coming up over Seaside.

From my home, sunrise is better, shot this morning, welcome spring! Barrier island on the horizon, then the Atlantic.

As someone who single hands his J/100, I'd go with Carbon mast, tiller, twin rudders. As for water ballast, simplicity would be the driving factor, so I'd have to see it in action. That fixed sprit is nice too. And no I'm not downsizing.

Qualifying: Nothing new, nothing to see go back home and wait for tomorrow's parade. Hopefully I'm wrong.

At the bottom of this post is a list of those arrested: https://www.cnbc.com/2019/02/22/new-england-patriots-owner-robert-kraft-charged-with-soliciting-prostitution.html The last one on the list is Daniel R. Young, DOB 3/3/34. 85th birthday in two weeks, he deserves a medal not an arrest warrant!

He has lots of rings: 6 Super Bowl 1 Prostitution

Oh my, what a surprise.

Fat Happy J/100: same length, shorter waterline, but much wider and heavier. Sounds like a description of the typical owner. It’s going to need all that extra sail area.

They used to be cool, I always wore the first one I earned as owner/skipper. Now I wear a matching (with my asym) red hat with the boat make/model and name on it. I love love to sucker the snowflakes, because they assume all red hats belong to the same (MAGA) club. I tell them, no I'm on your side, but I just do this stir up the ignorant on this side of the fence. They usually take a second to think about that, then shut up. Payback this week though, my wife wore her favorite teams shirt on Tuesday, which happened to have a Nike swoosh on it and was accosted by the wait staff in our local lunch place. (Sadly I had already paid the tip). I mean come on, give my wife a break, how many times do Jet fans get to celebrate a blow-out!
