FKT, we know your position on this whole sorry state of affairs.
However, do not confuse nor conflate the issue of first identifying underhand and shitty behaviour with the process of adoption or understanding of that behaviour by the wider public.
Most of the sailing public are blissfully...
Leo and the Boys have again knocked it clean out of the park.
Classic and true example of how Good people attract good people. Leo has consistently navigated a shrewed path of doing the right thing and attracting people who gravitate to that ethos, be that Pete, Patrick, Rowan and countless...
So why such Secret Squirrel behaviour?
If everything is out there:
a) you have nothing to fear,
and
b) makes your behaviour even more puzzling......
So either clarify, or post the links.
The information maybe somewhere you know of, but it isn't here......
That's one of the "Mickey Mouse Ear" keels that were all the rage c.1985 and Jade the one ton World Champ led the charge. Eliptical profile for drag reduction to the point of trying to reduce both the keel root and keel foot from producing energy sapping vortices to the minimum that structural...
Am fully aware of everything you mention.
The litigation issue I understand, given the Hitler Meme. Achtung!
But the whole "hypothetical" situation is entirely different. They either complied or they did not...... I am trying to determine which boats are implicated. There is still conjecture...
Yoy have actually read page 44 of "Australian Sailing" within the sailing page before you wrote this?
Bust your gut and read a few pages prior to that. In fact re-read the whole topic.....
Then tell me that there is clarity and that @Livia doesn't have a habit of being suggestive and...
We are all aware you love to talk in Riddles........ But for the love of clarity, spit out what you are saying or don't say anything at all.
This schtick of yours is wearing thin.
Monday now, and this is not the first time your soothsaying has evaporated to naught.
Not even with your boyish charms Snags, could you persuade ANYONE, that you have never tried Coca Cola.
Oh......
Wait.
That is....... Nevermind......
I see what you want........ :blink: ;)
I see that as well......YCMTSU
They (AS) are pissing themselves laughing whilst they get given the good ideas by the likes of you and celebrate their own good fortune of riding the gravy train that will run into the ground.
Well Done on giving GRS the only excuse he and AS will ever want, to not be transparent about their worthless Insurance scam.
To ask for non specific details about total premiums paid, # of claims made, # of claims cases paid and value of claims is a valid request. Especially by those who have...
This is the Value that is completely missing in most sailing.
So good that it still exists in pockets but it's simple really that when there is a complete disconnect between cost and value along with zero or neglible fun then the numbers speak for themselves.
With the unnecessary need for all...
Snaggs, depends which era of hipsters you are referring to?
Certainly there were man buns in late 80's early 90's with the whole ecstasy and rave scene.....
YMMV :) :) :)
P.S. I would argue with anyone who claims a Man Bun is Or ever was fashionable......
But that is the point.
I don't want any AS prescribed cover foisted upon me at all. And certainly not to be the cornerstone of why I need to be tethered to AS.
They actually need me and my like, more than I need them...... But that is lost in this reframing of our sport.
I have sailed...
That's a disgraceful example of bad business, and appreciate you putting the story forward.
You point out a very large gap that exists, especially when circumstances are like yours - and you are unwilling to involve friends in your misfortune; especially when the marketing that AS use creates...
Not a Man Bun in sight......!
Seen this before, but doesn't get old.
Good reminder to certain sectors how soft society has become in many respects. Has the Baby been thrown out with the Bathwater in terms of progress?
Asking for a friend......
Yes, a clear and transparent presentation of the facts would be most appreciated by the "members", or is that "subjects", of Australian Sailing.
Seeing as all of this insurance is created primarily to keep us all safe, some breakdown of premiums generated, claims submitted, and claims paid and...
Hi Stanno
Thousand apologies, and appreciate the clarification. The connection seemed solid under the context.
Also happenstance that you do what you do and have direct and relevant knowledge of the matters at hand and anecdotally supply yet more evidence of the worthlessness of the AS...
