Isn't that considered alcohol abuse? I hope it wasn't Spotted Cow!

For all of us "Woodies", I have always been even more careful because the alcohol might be hard on the varnish. You can never be too careful!! Plus if you spill it, you can't drink it.

Alcohol should always be aboard boats. That's what boats are for. If you don't have beer, you're doing it wrong.

Alcohol and water do mix. Example...E85, Jack on the rocks, Crown with a wash.

Holy smokes! Forgot about that one Terry.
That flag flies on almost every boat I've ever had. Here it is on my moniker the 1963 Century Sabre that took me 5 years to restore from bottom up. Now resides just south of Geneva in northern Ill. Geesh I miss that boat, just too much upkeep every year.

It still amazes me how many like minded people are on this site!! I thought it was just me with the requirement of a full cooler before leaving the dock.

I remember a picture from way back of two "gentlemen" heading out fishing in a wooden outboard runnabout using about 15 cases of beer for seats. I wish I still had that picture.

There's an old saying, "give a man a fish and he will eat for a day, teach him to fish and he will sit in his boat and drink beer all day. "

After sailing out from Norway in July 2014, Draken Harald Hårfagre was beating against the wind for three days, and was making progress towards Orkney islands, when disaster struck. 
The mast came down... 
Luckily, no one was injured ...?

Obvious they did not have duct tape and superglue in the ships storeroom.

Terry the Terrible always requests you remove your shoes before boarding Mama Mia! 
The U.S. Coast Guard boarded all boats at this event on Navy Pier, but he refused to take off his boots. 
Mama Mia passed inspection flying colors. 
More shots aboard The Draken. 
Thanks, Terry |

The Draken was here at Mystic Seaport for about a year. They hauled her and freshened up the bottom paint before she left.
She's not your common method of ship construction... Larry |

Hello Sailor58,
I knew she was in Mystic Seasport last year but looking at FleetMon now there is no signal to track. Using the FleetMon app I tracked the voyage from the time they left Norway and was on Navy pier to welcome them to Chicago. 
Mary and I spent 5 days at The Tall Ships Challenge 2016 in Chicago as crew aboard Mama Mia! 
The event gave us the opportunity to visit aboard the Tall Ships, share meals, and party with Sailors from around the world. And you know sailors like to party. But I gotta say, the Scandinavians were some of the most friendly and polite people I’ve ever had the pleasure to meet. 
The Viking Longship hull construction is unique but basically a lapstrake fastened with iron rivets. As the rivets were flattened with hammers, they clinked in the process and maybe why it's known as a clinker-built hull. Thanks, Terry |

Heard they just opened the bars in WI. Mmmm… spicy chicken wings. Time for a road trip just like in the old days. As 18-year-old teenagers we crossed the cheese border to drink beer there when the Illinois legal age was still 21. Then it was always tricky getting back to Chicago as the IL State Troopers laid in wait for us to cross back. They knew what was going on. Now the only thing missing will be a ball game to watch on TV and about 50 years. 
Really missing my friend Christine at a local haunt. Thanks, Terry |

I live in Brown County north of Green Bay. Two days ago when the state court shot down the dem gov's stay home rule the counties started making up their own rules. Today, (Friday) the county lawyers said that there was no way that they could defend any suits against those rules so the counties deep sixed all the rules. Wis. is open for business now. The local bistros are following safe rules though with distancing etc. Pretty hard to eat those spicy wings through a mask.
You didn't need to be 18 here. The local gin mills would make an exception if you could reach up and put money on the bar. |
