Zwei Segler streiten sich an Bord, der eine ertrinkt, der andere steht vor Gericht. War es Mord?

A friend asked what a Gennaker was, so here are some links:

Shows deployment from a snuffer. Here's a more complete demonstration because I spelled wrong on the first try:

Snuffer for Cruising Chute/Spinnaker https://www.hydesails.com/product/snuffer-for-cruising-chute-spinnaker/

and a example of using a barber hauler to move the tack toward the windward ama to get out if the main sail wind shadow

Recovery from voting. We live in an area where most folks vote differently from us, she stood in line for quite while surrounded by the folks with a different perspective. Spent a solid hour here, reconnecting with nature from the dock. #election #nature #vote #fall #water #boats #boating #trimaran #calm #contemplation
I love it when my friends buy new toys and immediately point them at the closest summer rain cloud they can find.

Also #Seasteading as currently implemented is either a shitty version of #Waterworld-esque #Solitary minus a #Trimaran or some #AnCap grift to dodge #Taxes.

That's why people like #PeterThiel love the idea, because it's a "#GatedCommunity" aka. #Ghetto for #rich #white #wankers!

These #Billonaires see it as their god-given right to #plunder and #pilfer the #world and not be bound by #Governments or any #SocialContract|s whatsoever.
