belated merry christmas to ya'll from joseph in hong kong, but not too late for happy new year, ha? haven't had time to check into this group of late, and when i do, wow, the format is all changed and unrecognizable. and i wonder if i reply in the usual way, would my message go through somehow... and not much time for sailing either. winter winds in hong kong are fickle, unless they are the real strong northerly trades, otherwise it is fresh in the morning, but drops to almost a standstill beofre noon and stays that way till 4 pm... still, did take time off and sailed from hong kong to macau and back. the two places are separated by the very wide pearl river estuary, and took about 10 hours each way. got almost grounded while leaving macau harbour on way back, but really just scraped the bottom a few times and got away with it. question: engine giving out white smoke, sounds not quite smooth, and about 10 degrees of overheating (to 90 degrees, up from the normal 80), all at 1700 rpm. mine is a 50 hp yanmar. could anyone suggest what i should be looking at?

Recently one came in that might be interesting to a project-seeker: YW# 75191-2013025 Minor hurricane damage, when I look at that boat I realize that we'd done more than all that was mentioned as trouble with this boat in the course of our refit - and then had a wreck. Stated price 35K, "reasonable offer" encouraged. Looks like the owner was doing a refit when the hurricane hit. If I were bored, or somehow prevented from cruising while Lydia had to do something for a couple of years, I'd jump on this in a heartbeat, cuz from the frank descriptions of condition, I think it's an easy job (meaning not technically challenging, and primarily either refit or cosmetics). There's no stouter boat in the world, I don't think, and if you haven't followed my history, a glance at the gallery in my signature line will show you what I mean :{)) L8R, y'all, and Merry Christmas Skip and crew, lying Nassau waiting out the Christmas Winds -- Morgan 461 #2 SV Flying Pig KI4MPC See our galleries at www.justpickone.org/skip/gallery !

I respond so infrequently yet the topic remains. I get your points. But obviously my email client doesn't. I am set to plain text every single time I respond to this list. The problem is not ignorance but more likely that I'm using a Mercedes email client for a Yugo list. Overkill. Admittedly it's killing me too because it should work properly but does not. Not sure why this was never an issue prior to coming to this list. Go figure. No, please don't. LOL This email is in plain text as my email client interprets such. I have not hit REPLY but put together a brand new email... so that's not it either. Yet I now too see bold type but cannot change it (no choices when set on plain text). My default can be either plain text or rich text. I even went into advanced settings and switched the default to plain text and still nada. Incredimail has been known for having some of these type problems. It just hadn't happened to me (knowingly) in the five years I've been using it. Sorry for any inconvenience Mateys. A boldface type, extra lines, or whatever it is that irritates your Christmas stockings. I'll see what I can figure out as it is a problem. No help needed, so thanks but no thanks... I just haven't had the time to really pay much attention to it in the prior months but will at some later date. Hope everyone has a wonderful Holiday Season and can now move their reindeer forward. Hugs, Charmaine Message: 3 Date: Sat, 20 Dec 2008 19:23:54 -0500 From: A Michael Piper <[email protected]> Subject: Re: [Liveaboard] Blame Game To: [email protected] Message-ID: <[email protected]> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII; format=flowed; delsp=yes That is an issue many folks don't understand, it seems. Any thing other than plain text will add a whole bunch of extra data to the message. Charmaine's response (in bold with rich text formatting) is an excellent example of the type of technical ignorance we're talking about here. It's not the list server that's the problem - it's individual's not understanding their mail clients and the data they're propagating. Recognizing that some on the list are cruising, and therefore have limited data access is a kindness we should all embrace, IMHO. To send this message plain text" I need to go to my Mail Application and tell it to do so (default is Rich Text). Unfortunately if someone is using a webmail client, they might not have that option.
