I'm willing to bet that he is only in charge at work and when he goes home is completely dominated. So when he's at work he is going to make sure everyone knows that he's the alpha dog. I'd forget all about it and find something more important to worry about like say, are the Red Sox going to make it to the World Series.
Sorry to hear about the OB I hope it turns out to be something cheap to fix. You know what they say about sail boats. "The most important thing to have on a sail boat is a reliable engine" It's true for the Chesapeake where the wind is often unreliable and on the nose whenever you have to go somewhere in particular.

With a 50 ft wide channel and the wind on the nose, I had to get a guy to tow me in. At the point where I would normally make a 90 degree turn into my slip, I just uncleated and dropped the tow line, and turned into the slip with the last of my momentum and dropped on the dock lines. No sweat. Marina owner then came down .... said I should have been tied up side to side and let the powered boat bring me completely into the slip, I endangered other boats, bla bla bla. Anyone have any thoughts? Tom
