Operator's manuals are your boat's bible

We had a guy back in bootcamp who constantly made outlandish assertions, and would proceed to defend his position. We teased him mercilessly but he was completely blind to sarcasm and would laugh right along with us. He was completely oblivious as to who was the butt of the joke. I'm sure there is a term for this, but yeah....It's like that.

I have looked everywhere in that manual and it says nothing about falling out of the water onto land….. and nothing about hitting a house when you do. Manuals are like ikea assembly instructions stay away from them.

Some plywood skid plates would have helped them skip over upright. It just takes some Boeing machinists and a trial lawyer to get it all figured out.

But the tricky part is using the same screw holes…..so as not to add new holes……that’s some fancy shit…..not just any one can do that

Using the same screw holes twice seems like a weakness to me. The better route is to fill them in and re-drill with backing plates so the immense waves and torpedo submersion can be sustained. These things need to be engineered by a machinist trial lawyer who was a test pilot who flew with the blue angels.

And it is a porcupine of screw hole angles.

I've got my Basic Climbing Certificate from the Mountaineers (dues unpaid for years) and "unzipped" means that you have set rock anchors as you climb attaching your rope at convenient intervals. If you fall, the topmost anchor must hold or you will accelerate for another 15 or 30 feet and the 2nd upper anchor is going to suffer a severe impact load and may not hold. The failure of the remaining anchors is known as "unzipping." Lose a snap on your canvas due to the weight of water and the remaining snaps would have more weight and would be more likely to fail. The Pacific Ocean is cold but not as lethal as a rock face though.
 
My wife and I have identical phones. I recently picked up hers by mistake and it was open to farcebook. WOW, what crap!

Then, I opened up this thread and said: "Hay, wait a minute!" For a minute I thought I was farcebooking it again...
