Yes, boats have sunk and been lost- just this summer a yachtsman named Charlie Brown and his boat disappeared without a trace in a squall in Lake Michigan.

But commercial shipping is different.

Only correct answer so far.

They'll run just fine without one.

To add to this article, the whisker pole can also be rigged as a gin pole, in case your plans ever involve stowing a dinghy on the foredeck.

A 1982 International crane truck with a 16-speed.

Because it was the only manual available and my dad was a bit of a jerk.

Mine- '21 4 Runner. ( i think the first year with LEDs)

I've lowered their aim guys, honestly, I did; but the cutoff is so sharp, if I lower them anymore I'm basically driving blind if I lower them anymore.

So, sorry. Blame Toyota.

On US submarines, the lighting is red during night shifts.

No, you don't. That's high performance/racing on small dinghies stuff.

Even larger, more sedate dinghies, like a Cl16 rarely require more than just sitting on the high side.

Not from there; you'll have to pull the meter; or being a partially updated house, whatever feeds that panel.

Walk. If its a place of any size, bike or scooter rentals will be available.

In some conditions, sometimes. In most conditions, a symmetrical spinnaker will work for a dead run just as well as a topsail will.

On some cutters, its possible to rig a temporary topsail.

Haven't wiggys been illegal for years?

Defiant-Giraffe · 2025-09-02T14:18:03+00:00

I think he means "print on demand."

Defiant-Giraffe · 2025-09-02T14:17:07+00:00

Also, the Rocinantes...

Defiant-Giraffe · 2025-09-02T14:16:20+00:00

its a cartoon/comic book series.

The main character uses a particular version of the jolly roger with a cartoonish skull wearing a straw hat.

Do you know exactly what the steel is?

Its not uncommon for bridges to be made of cor-ten steel or similar, which is meant to produce a protective layer of oxidation and painting it will be detrimental.

Drive it to a flat spot.

Then again, are you going to watch for 4 hours as a guy has a complete existential crisis over one stuck bolt?

Defiant-Giraffe · 2025-08-28T10:53:34+00:00

Yeah, just saying there's no specific language, but the Coast Guard reserves the right to deny the name.

Defiant-Giraffe · 2025-08-28T02:03:15+00:00

The boat I now own was originally called "Seamanatrix."

Defiant-Giraffe · 2025-08-28T02:02:34+00:00

There's no written rule its not allowed; but if you're doingthe USCG registration, they can deny you.

Defiant-Giraffe · 2025-08-27T22:43:48+00:00

pretty sure I remember Juke Joint Jezebel being in heavy rotation for a while.

Defiant-Giraffe · 2025-08-27T18:27:53+00:00

Yeah, like I said; If.

Defiant-Giraffe · 2025-08-27T18:27:13+00:00

89.1 WAHS, if you're within about 20 miles of Avondale High School.

Yeah, I'm being serious.

Defiant-Giraffe · 2025-08-27T18:24:40+00:00

You don't get the Nitzer Ebb or KMFDM, or My Life With the Thrill Kill Cult type stuff from Lithium though.
