Apparently I struck a raw nerve. I'm sorry you took this discussion as a 
personal attack. Had I known, I would not have expressed an opinion with 
which  you did not agree.

 I would ask how you jumped to the conclusion that anyone is attempting "to 
pick the bottom of the market". Nothing I wrote could get you to that point. 
I agree with "Water Rat". I keep a boat and have for more than 40 years!

I have read with great interest many discussions in regards to best routes, 
best boats, number of engines, davits, anchorages and so on. Exactly where 
is a better place to have this discussion? I believe a difference of opinion 
is an opportunity to learn from someone else. Apparently, you do not. I 
would hate each moment of each day if I thought like you.

If you want to criticize a point I made then be my guest. I encourage it, 
but please do not re-characterize or distort my point. Simply speak to it. 
We may learn something.
