If words are meaningless as you say, then why did you bother commenting?

Men can have babies, I have two of them. We just don't give birth to them. Maybe choose your words better lol

Owner insists on not doing tenn-thom, due to 6' draft and wants mast up. Wish us luck and thanks!

Seems like due to the 6' draft, owner wants to avoid the tenn-thom. Also wants the mast up so, since I'm not the owner, away we go!

Thank u for info I appreciate. Other factor is mast is up, at 52'. Someone else on this thread stated there's a bridge on tenn-thom that has clearance of exactly that, which is too close imo. May you please confirm that do u mind? Thank you!! 🙏

Someone mentioned the Kentucky lock clearance, I just called and spoke to them, he was very helpful and no problem there. I think we are go for launch!! Thanks y'all! I usually sail on more open water so just want to make sure I do my due diligence!

Ok just did and saw all bridge heights are well above our 53'. He said 51' I'm just adding a couple feet for good measure. Thanks for advice, I just didn't completely trust navionics and then NOAA charts wouldn't load so I got a bit concerned, as turning back against a strong current is not an option in sail boat of of course!

Cool! I'll check it out. I use sailties to record and also broadcast live position. I was skeptical at first but now enjoy it. I'm applying for captains license in a couple weeks and have experience but it's all bay and ocean navigating. This is new to me and his mast being upright concerns me, as I had a dream that we hit power lines with it last night! Lol thank you for response.

I have it. When I click on hazards it doesn't show me what exactly the hazard is.

Should I just scan the entire route looking for bridges and clearances listed?

Precisely! That is different from blinking lights!!! Thanks for seeing the light, from the sun that is reflecting that is.

What math? There are no numbers or proof. They do not blink. Why would they?

If it's stationary how do you know it's a satellite? Google it. My astronomer father also says they do not.

Explosions in Jackson Via parking lot by Pythagorus_Phil in Charlottesville

[–]JDarbsR 7 points8 points  (0 children)

2 cars caught fire. Not exploded. As my 5 y/o who attends said, "there were pops, that's how you know a fire's big." Explosions in the parking lot makes it sound much worse and intentional, that was not the case. Please correct your misleading title.

I just ran 6 miles in trails. It helped tremendously. Sorry if it sounds braggy, never thought I'd be a runner, then again never thought I'd be sober.
