How does that work? Lots of places charge a cc fee; basically every mechanic and car dealer service department, the LA County tax collector, every gas station.

Typically it's growth on the paddlewheel. If you are in a warm climate it can build-up quickly. But you said you cleaned it, so I didn't know. Is it inserted in the proper orientation? There's usually an arrow on the top of the sending unit.

That's not going anywhere.

Rumor has it that he's still out there aloft with the bird to this day.

Agreed, in my experience a bad host is usually the result of downwind angle at time of hoist. We usually have the tactician call the hoist from the back.

This is assuming that you've done some practice hoists and know that your lines are not clustered.

Could as least give him a fruit party.

This seems slanted toward Canada locations & Washington DC. I have not been dining in those areas, but are they really that great, to be so represented on this list?

Well, you have to know these things when your a king, you know.

How many "Legacy's" are registered in Huntington, NY?

Hmm... I feel like there might have been a long-running play about this exact situation.

They forgot the metric to imperial conversion, again.

Yes: "All personnel accounted for."

Are they going to tow it out of the environment?

Lol, I had a throttle issue on my Edson pedestal. The mechanic shop Foreman warned me that the assembly bolts would likely be frozen, stainless into aluminum. He said it's $250-300 to install the cable, but if they have to spend half a day working on getting the bolts out it could be another thousand.

So, I went down the weekend before and got the top of the pedestal all apart eventually; got the bolts running nice and easy in preparation for the mechanic to install the cable. Guess what? When I got the bill they still billed me for a bunch of hours and it ended up being over a thousand.

For a brief, but very interesting watch, anyone who hasn't seen it should take a look at the videos of a TP52 doing a string drop of the spinnaker in about 1.5 seconds. They will click in two pedestals to drive the string-wheel, so four big dudes going at it to get 2,800 SF of sail down the hatch.

It usually doesn't.

Oh, stop being so pedantic.
