yourdarkdesire -> Gone Sailing (6/19/2010 5:00:59 AM)

I would just like to give a huge shout out to my best friend and Daddy - Captainofthesea. He and his crew departed on Friday for gruelling 635 mile ocean race. They have left Newport RI and are on their way to Bermuda. Daddy and I did not have time to talk before they left but I want them to know how much I am rooting for them. I believe at last count there were 185 vessels entered.

May the Winds always be where you need them. Godspeed Daddy!!!!!!!!!!!!

Three sheets to the wind
Walk the plank
Batten down the hatches
Hit the head
Above board
POSH
a slow boat to China
Getting Shanghai'd
Letting the Cat out of the Bag
Wide berth


Ohhhhh and goodluck!




DarkSteven -> RE: Gone Sailing (6/19/2010 9:42:06 AM)

Keelhaul
cat o'nine tails

yeah I agree he sails close to the winds at times but overall I think he would be a good ketch

(why has he been so quiet...must be up to no good)




sunshinemiss -> RE: Gone Sailing (6/20/2010 2:46:30 AM)

Just so long as he's not in Davy Jones' locker, it'll all be smooth sailing.

I got a song for everything!




yourdarkdesire -> RE: Gone Sailing (6/20/2010 3:24:44 AM)

Last report (2 am EST) had them 31% completion. They are sticking nice and close to the pack. It would be soooo exciting to be there, but just thinking of being on a small boat that long makes me seasick. But damn - those boats need internet and on-board webcams I tell ya!

Sounds like a floating third world nation!  Heck, even Nigeria has cams and Internet.

I should know...
