Are you sure it's not a lot of dashes all lined up? And isn't "on the hard" something you bump her with?
Marine terms you hate…

So why not called Fendoffs not Fenders? Inquiring minds want to know.

Had an old boating buddy used to call it a village pump. No matter how many times we tried to correct him, nope, it was a village pump.

The thing I hate to hear: "What was that noise? It didn't sound good."

What I hate to hear is amateur boaters that have no idea that they don't know what they don't know:
"My anchor rope (rode) is knotted.", "Sailboats keel over (heel) in strong winds.", "I hoisted the flag up the mast." (staff). You can certainly buy rope but once on a vessel it's a line, a rode, a painter, a sheet, a halyard and so forth...
These people don't seem to know the buoyage system or the rules of the road, either.

But at least it's descriptive and makes sense.
I think he means the feel and taste….. it’s like “walking the plank” ….no one is offended except the guy on it
On the front and rear of your Chevy, Blueone.
That was a test….you are Canadian

Alright you two!
I think that was established 2 years ago...slow on the uptake, Blueone?
Sorry, Nater Potater. We should take this outside.

For the record, I like the word ‘scuppers’ and enjoy using the word in front of non-boaters.
Hey ..this is a hate thread….don’t need any touchy-feely stuff here
