What about the whole symphony?  We were docked next to the sailboat
dock...add some winds with a rock and roll....is that ever a clatter!

Now what about all those damn birds in the morning?

And fishing boats....they probably don't read T&T eh?

Enjoy every sandwich!

As a not too long ago "sailboater" I agree with the comments about halyards
slapping. They are very annoying. But I believe it has more to do with the
inconsiderate attitude of the boat owner than what kind of boat it is. We
have found the halyards slapping against trawler masts also. 
>>>> Okay, my Trawler Mast can sing a little too so I tie it off with velcro
straps

I have to chine in here, as the "blowboaters" are once again at arms!  What
I have experienced on too Many occasions, it the damn halyard on the friggin
riggin pounding all nite against the mast disturbing the entire anchorage!
How can anyone sleep on a boat with a line pounding against the mast  like
that.  There, I vented, feel better, thanks.
