Oh man!

  I seriously question the idea that man was intended to live where it gets that cold!

hmmm. where'd I put that hives medicine?

Those are some scary pictures. In the second pic, I think you can just make out the stern of Rik's boat, if you look to the left of Amorous...

You guys are nuts. I think, though, that Iceman wins hands-down the "Lived Someplace I Never Want To Live" contest, though... Grin

I am sorry.

  I am very sorry..... makes me cold thinking of it.

It was cold here too.  I sailed Wednesday, it was REALLY cold then, like 42 degrees with 15 knots.  Then Friday it was just a little cold, mid 50's but not much wind.... only stayed out about 4 hours and did not go far.  Today it was a little chilly at 65, and blowing 12-18.  At one point while close hauled, in the shadow of the jib I thought about tacking to get back in the sun......

  Sorry man.  Really.  Grin

you all have the wrong idea.in order to liveaboard in that situation you need to be prepared.just have losta heating fuel some warm duds and ya got it made.there have been many times where even at the dock during inclement weather I stayed inside for days at a time.I had everything I needed onboard and there was absoulutely no reason to step outside.

Okay I'm missing something here?  Do not go where?   Is there supposed to be a link or photo in the original post or something?

I don't have a clue what you are talking about.  Huh

BRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR.jpg (top pic) shows up for me, but I can not find it in my cache (or I would re-post it).

Have to get Zen to repost them... I think he started this thread before we had the gallery.
