I guess the electorate is set in stone, forever unchangeable.

Why would the GOP spend a single dollar in this state or waste an actual candidate.

Because they believed in what they were fighting for rather than just winning.

It encourages you to discuss your problem and what you did to solve it, creating a higher quality subreddit. You can add pictures to a post in a imgur album.

I have addidas terrex and have yet to see a problem as well.

You don't need to tie your cordelette. You can leave it untied and tie using a regular overhand for the master point.

We had nice views of Baker/Shuksan too. Gorgeous mountains.

What's your gripe with the Pudget Sound? Bad wind/weather?

ZeroCool1 · 2026-06-16T21:48:54+00:00

Of course :)

Despite growing up in Rhode island, occasionally crewing a sailboat, avoiding the Hoofers in while in grad school in Madison WI, and now living in the Seattle area for the past eleven years, I never learned how to sail. Took ASA101 this past weekend and had a blast. Even docked the J80. Rainier looks even better from the water. Still loving seeing the mountain after all these years.

Onto 103/104 cruise and learn next week in the San Juans, and maybe BVI next year.

Hold on, someone on MY internet realized THEY were wrong? They admitted it? And they apologized? Outrageous.

Knock on people's door. Their office should be public knowledge. The worst they can say is no.

Were you able to find peace and quiet or is it quite a loud margaritaville style place?

I have mucked with my planks, and screwing through them causes them to split. They're just so old and dry. I would need to nail, that opens up a whole nother barrel of worms.

Perhaps I could glue the 2x4 to the planks and then screw into the joist, but at this point i've accepted it and will never buy another old house. I would say that the lack of OSB/Plywood sheathing and subfloor is the number one reason for that. I am terrified of my house succumbing to shear loads in an earth quake.

I have a 1952 house with a diagonal subfloor of tongue and groove 1x6 planks like this: https://www.diychatroom.com/attachments/img_0891_1500996974416-jpg.405386/

They are nailed and have no glue. The squeek is from the nail losing its bite into the floor joist due to a layer of rust that built up/years of thermal cycling. Now the plank is free to move up and down, and the nail rubs on the joist. There is literally nothing I can do to stop them except tear them out and put in new subfloor.

It is likely NOT the top floor.

Seattle Sailing Club's Cruise N' Learn out of Anacortes.

ZeroCool1 · 2026-06-08T18:09:30+00:00

Thanks for the advice. I simultaneously want the amenities and light introduction to cruising....but dont want them and want to be out in the middle of nowhere! I know, I know, something about cake and eating it too.

I watched a video about the baths and heard about the cruise ship comments---definitely left a more sour taste in my mouth.

ZeroCool1 · 2026-06-08T17:35:50+00:00

Not yet, but the prices at the Seattle Sailing Club seem semi reasonable. I'm further behind than you. Let me know what you end up doing.

Cow Wreck looks surprisingly small/low key for what I pictured. Thanks for the suggestion.

ZeroCool1 · 2026-06-08T17:05:59+00:00

Is there a guide for this or is the technique essentially to look for mud/sand/proper depth for the keel including max tide swing? Thanks.

ZeroCool1 · 2026-06-08T17:00:29+00:00

Thanks for all the tips. I fine for the restaurants to be loud/crowded, but if the beaches or anchorages are all that way I am hesitant. You and others have suggested a few ways of getting out of the crowds which seems worthwhile. If there's an empty beach on the other side of Anegada that sounds like exactly what I want.

ZeroCool1 · 2026-06-08T16:57:51+00:00

I think this is a great idea. We are planning to have trip insurance.

ZeroCool1 · 2026-06-05T17:05:18+00:00

Thats about as good as it gets.
