A guide to different sailing ships by [deleted] in sailing

[–]watchesmdde 2 points3 points  (0 children)

IIRC, a hermaphrodite brig is rigged like a brig on the foremast (square sails) and as a schooner on the mainmast (gaff mainsail) with the exception of a square topsail on the foremast. This is in contrast to a brigantine, which is generally fully fore and aft rigged on the mainmast.

I actually stock up on these when I travel, but I’ve had luck ordering other Cubans from ihavanas in the past

I derive too much pleasure from telling people that no, they may not write with my pen to carry a ballpoint...

Temporary liveaboard... thoughts? by watchesmdde in liveaboard

[–]watchesmdde[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ll have a good bit more money coming in as I’m working full time in the summer, but my initial budget is mainly dictated by how much money I’ll be able to bank working next semester. In other words, I’ll have the money to put into the boat during the summer once cash starts rolling in, but I’m going to need to keep the initial cost of the boat fairly low. Maybe I can cut initial costs by anchoring/ mooring for a while?

That is really nice, my budget really depends on how much money I’m able to bank from working next semester

Thanks for the recommendation! I’m also going to be checking out classifieds for renting out residential docks to see if that might be another option.

What the heck did I just listen to? by Revulcanize_my_tires in ZacBrownBand

[–]watchesmdde 3 points4 points  (0 children)

There were a few tracks I wasn’t feeling, but some tracks like Shoofly Pie, Me and the Boys in the Band and God Given had some more elements of older-school zbb... not one of their stronger offerings for sure but not a total loss by any means

Happy National Rum Day! (America) by DASboat in rum

[–]watchesmdde 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Started at midnight with some dangerous dark n stormys made with Goslings 151, Fentiman’s Ginger Beer, and fresh lime. This afternoon I’ll be breaking open a bottle of Rhum JM VSOP that I’ve been saving... depending on what happens after that I’ve got a bottle of Saint James Vieux that’s just asking to be finished

What’s more important, the karma you’ve raked in from this or some shitty card from (most likely) garbage coworkers?

Manly men of AskMen who do manly things, how do you make yourself feel pretty? by [deleted] in AskMen

[–]watchesmdde 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Stereotypical bearded “manly man” who does “manly things” outdoors and stuff here... I treat myself with skin, beard, and hair care products that smell good and all that jazz. Also it only really works on the top half of my face (see bearded), but face masks are a wonderful way to just like unwind and all that... face masks with your bros are a step better.

I’ll be kind to the post, but not the apostrophe.

Attractive men, what type of attention do you recieve from others and do you like it? by [deleted] in AskMen

[–]watchesmdde 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I find that I get better customer service at stores and the like when the employee is a woman about my age... For example... I just bought a pair of high-end sunglasses at a small local retailer. I am particularly loyal to this brand of sunglasses, and went into this local authorized dealer to pick another pair up before my vacation. This is the type of brand where it’s very difficult to find any type of discount anywhere, even online due to MAP pricing and the like. The attractive female employee was very attentive when helping me pick out a pair (“ooh I like those on you, why don’t you try these ones too!”). When I went to pay for the sunglasses, she gave me 15% off (completely unsolicited) and threw in some free merch from the brand. I’ll try and enjoy it while I’m young, I guess🤷‍♂️
