Say goodbye to the Flying Tiger forum

I have no doubt that he'd approve.

I have no doubt he'd tell you to shut the fuckup!

Stop being a fucking troll, unless of course your trying to step into the long departed AKA gp role

Georgie Porgie went after specific people in particular, including me. I'm not attacking any particular person, just airing an opinion about a boat and getting slagged for it. Props to snapper and stayinstrewn (and to a lesser extent KK) for coming back with a reasonable reply that actually addressed my opnion and didn't resort to name calling.

Shooting back at the person quoting a syphilis crazed french loony was just low hanging fruit and you know it.

 

[mad]

Its trolling mission and this threads been dormant for while.

You having another 'look at me' syndrome?

 

[Bob Perry]

HooK:

Is Englishman second language for you?

you have some personal problems.

If they involve the Ft project then I am sorry.

 

[left hook]

I never suggested you had personal problems, Bob

I just don't understand it when people get angry at boats. Seems odd to me. I can't think of a single boat I am angry with.

This thread appears to have de-evolved to the point its now OK to ask this question... which is better designed and built; Laser or FT?

 

[Bob Perry]

Given the history of the class and numbers built I'd have to say the Laser was better designed. Mine had an annoying leak so I'm, not sure about the build quality overall.

Pretty silly comparison.

Bob, the only annoying leak in my ft10 is the sprit tube. same shit as a m32.

Too bad Left Hook is too much a [insert your preferred term here] to actually come sailing on a FT10 and see the boat, instead preferring to live a "i believe everything I read on the Internet" life.

Tiger:

Why would he go sailing on an FT? He's angry at the boat. I suspect he's angry a lot of things.

Don't feel bad. He's afraid of dinghies too.

I've said before that I'm sure they're fun to sail.

Plus we've already been over the fact that our race schedules are totally incompatible

 

[Bob Perry]

I really hate stair wells. Hate 'em. Just dont like those stair wells

I don't like Cheerios either.

Not sure what a race schedule has to do with the qualties of a boat.

You are on a different planet hook. Enjoy the ride.

 

[ClimbnSail]

Ft10s are fast and fun. Very ergonomic to sail, and built to last. True they had a few issues, but what boat is perfect? I personally think the ft 7.5s missed the boat in the us. If the original builder would have shown half the support of the melges or jboats guys, the j70 would not be doing what it is today. Great boat bob. Thanks for many fun miles.

 

[ClimbnSail]

Oh yea, whats the deal on the lake lanier winter series? Dates? Headcount?

go ahead and hate away...

 

[Bob Perry]

Climber:

You are most welcome.

 

[Broseidon]
