    Yeah he is pretty worthless. But the girls love him. And he doesn't drink 
my post sailing cocktails.

Being a live aboard, my crew (aka cat Dinghy) gets locked in the brig(v-berth), 
he can tell when I am thinking of leaving the dock. It'sterrible being out 
smarted by a cat.  Once under way, he likes tosit on cushion layed over 
clutches, makes it tough to adjust the main,all the while giving me the finger, 
(mentally), for making him gosailing. When arriving back at slip first one off 
is supposed to take aline. Yeah he doesn't do that either.

Before the Great Refit, often when my wife and I went out for anafternoon sail 
it went like this:

Me: “Honey, could you just take in on the mainsheet abit?”

Wife, putting down her knitting and cranking: “Is thatenough?”

“Yes. Thanks”

Wife goes back to knitting.

“Honey, could ease the traveler down a bit?”

Wife: “Okay… Is that enough?”

>
Me: “Yes. Thanks.”

Me in a few seconds: “Could you bring the traveler up a bit?”(after 
cranking in on the jib”

Wife: “Your racing again, aren’t you?”

Me: “Well, there’s a boat on the horizon and I think he’spointing higher 
than us.”

Wife: “Really…?”

Me: “Just pull it up a little bit, okay?”

Wife goes back to knitting…

AKA: Competition Cruisinng.

general yahoo approach to sailing even on a cruise.

My crew:

Spouse: Hanging on tightly convinced we're going to capsize when weheel.

Daughter: Total lack of situational awareness, particularlynoticeable when on 
the foredeck, we're coming about and the jib and linesproceed to mummify her.

Son: Panic-frozen in place, terrified of the body-hugging apparatuscalled a PFD.

Me: Having too much fun to really quite grasp that no one elseis.
