Foiling Optimist 228 #7403 Posted February 2, 2017 First posted in Dinghy Anarchy, a Laser that has seen better days. Comes with "steering rudder", "stabilizer board" and the all-important "sail pole" http://minneapolis.craigslist.org/csw/boa/5978865672.html It's sort of self-mocking so there's little for us to do here. As a self styled low-end used laser expert (for club use) that's potentially a fine deal if it's complete and if the hull isn't soft or waterlogged, which is quite possible if it hasn't been used much. The text is eminently mock-worthy though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

NO TIME WASTERS OR DREAMERS PLEASE If you're selling parts of a ten year old race boat, excluding dreamers and time wasters from the target market might not be wise. Similarly, there's a marketing deficiency in the Irwin ad. You're trying to give away a POS and want "serious inquiries only"? The trimaran foil project looks interesting to me. It doesn't look well built nor does it look like it could fly on foils even if it held together. But it's fascinating that someone actually built it and I'd like to see more details of their madness. It might be a fractal mistake. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lasal 224 #7468 Posted February 12, 2017 You're saying there's a fractal mistake there? Like a Paisley pattern that keeps on repeating itself, or a like a lot of mistakes that create a pattern? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Polytelum Tom 1,463 #7470 Posted February 12, 2017 You're saying there's a fractal mistake there? Like a Paisley pattern that keeps on repeating itself, or a like a lot of mistakes that create a pattern? The definition given at the time was "wrong at every level of resolution." It's still one of the funniest things I have seen on this forum. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

warbird 314 #7473 Posted February 12, 2017 https://losangeles.craigslist.org/lgb/boa/5992443709.html 07 FLYING TIGER 10 METER RACING SAILBOAT - $15000 THIS RACING SAILBOAT IS LOCATED IN MARINA DEL REY IN A SLIP. IT IS MISSING THE BOOM, RUDDER, SOME RIGGING AND SAILS. IT HAS A NISSAN ENGINE (RETRACTABLE) AND VHF RADIO ETC... GREAT PROJECT BOAT. NO TIME WASTERS OR DREAMERS PLEASE If you're selling parts of a ten year old race boat, excluding dreamers and time wasters from the target market might not be wise. Similarly, there's a marketing deficiency in the Irwin ad. You're trying to give away a POS and want "serious inquiries only"? The trimaran foil project looks interesting to me. It doesn't look well built nor does it look like it could fly on foils even if it held together. But it's fascinating that someone actually built it and I'd like to see more details of their madness. It might be a fractal mistake. The details of the madness might be patient/doctor priveledge. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bull City 1,470 #7477 Posted February 15, 2017 ^^ Goddam PY, that is one of the best looking dishes of food I have seen in a long time. Where can I get some? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
py26129 77 #7478 Posted February 15, 2017 Bull, here is the recipe. It's pretty easy and one of my favorites. The other option is to buy a plane ticket to Munich. Roasted Pork Hocks Ingredients 2 Pork hocks 3 – 3.5 lbs 1 teaspoon salt 1 / 2 tsp pepper 1 cup water 1 Onion ½ bottle of beer (I usually use more and drink 1 or 2 while this cooks) Preparation Preheat the oven to 390F. Cut the skin of the skin of the pork hocks in a diamond-shaped manner. Season with salt & pepper Add 1 cup of water to a roasting pan and add the pork hocks. Bake on the middle rack for approx. 2 1/2 hours. Baste the hocks every 15 minutes or so with the liquid form the bottom of the roaster. (the roaster should never go dry, add water (or beer) if required. Quarter the onion and add to the roaster after approx. 1 1/2 h. After 2 hours, increase the temperature to 450f. Baste the hicks, frequently with the beer. Once done, remove the hocks from the roaster and keep warm. Dissolve the anything stuck to the bottom of the roaster with a little water and strain into a pot. Bring to a boil and season with salt & pepper. Serve un-thickened Serve with dumplings, cucumber salad or cole slaw etc. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LB 15 4,633 #7479 Posted February 15, 2017 https://nwga.craigslist.org/boa/5960515166.html This one comes without a Mask That's too bad. Considering it comes equipped with fungus, I wouldn't want to enter without a mask. Holds water, no interior, some fungus, no mask I see the ad describes the condition as 'fair'.

LB 15 4,633 #7480 Posted February 15, 2017 That's what I thought, what a bummer. Or it just got abandoned at the slip like that? https://jacksonville.craigslist.org/boa/5990912966.html 'Boat has head size hole in front hull' There might be an interesting back story on how the 'head sized' hole got there, but at least the rear hull is watertight.

They oughtta spell yaught right, but it's a Sceptre 36, a misspelled and really nice design. If Trump and Joe devalue the Canadian Peso, will an import tariff be needed to fix NAFTA the worst deal ever in order to pay for the wall? Asking for a Sceptre 36 shopper in the US.

Right now they are duty-free. If Drumpf starts slapping tariffs on everything all bets are off. So far the Canadian peso is holding it's own and actually slowly increasing against the greenback. "Sceptre" is a valid spelling, especially considering our French influence. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
