Poll and Spring Fever

Early every Spring, the List gets a little antsy. Many of us do not sail the winter, and some who do, shouldn't. Things like THE POLL are traditional diversions till boat time. My vote in the poll is well known. On my rare forays into wine consumption, it is Merlot or Shiraz. Two Buck Chuck's is plenty good enough (and really pretty good). Even rarer on the hard stuff, my crews favorite summer post race quaff is gin and diet tonic with lime - very refreshing. Then there are Alfred's D&Ss at the GOBR party. Life is naught but choices. Can explain acronyms if required. Cheers Charlie

Need an 'Other' - or maybe a 'suck it up' category. Smuttynose IPA, Hooker IPA, Rogue Brutal Bitter. Problem is that I turned on a few boatmates to these, now I'm the brewmaster.

I have not heard of those brands, maybe they are regional or you brew them yourself. Nevertheless, I cannot drink those watery beers. A beer should have some serious viscosity, or at least a lot of flavor. In our region, Full Sail Amber, Ballard Bitter or Widmer IPA. Best with a good sandwich whilst on a long broad reaching leg in the sunshine and a nice breeze. That¹s my winter fantasy anyway.

Ah! We're going to touch on all the favorite sins? Well, the wine must be dry and aged in oak. And, right now, I'm going for the locals and turning others on to the pleasures of Virginia wines.

When on the hook(SC), with a day to blow, my favorite is Yucca Juice. In a large glass pickle jar add 4-6 halved and crushed lemons Fill with ice add 1 cup sugar add liter bottle of tequila Seal the lid, and wrap with a big thick towel. Twist the ends, and secure with duct tape. Shake continuously for 30 minutes, passing from crew member to crew member(SC). Tell sailing and Yucca stories, and create rules and penalties for consuming. After 30 minutes, unwrap unit, there should be @ 1/8" of frosty ice on the jug exterior. Pass the container from member to member for their turn to sip. Use rules to make the drinker tell a joke, story, or perform a trick. Repeat as necessary.

Guys, Weather looks really good for an Island trip this weekend. I think I saw a post from Dan that he can't make it, nor can I. Not sure how many of our local crew is going, but the big boat is for sure. The following weekend (March 14-16) I will be going, also weather permitting, but it might take a lot of weather to scare me off -- I'm really ready for a trip. Chuck & Patty can't go this weekend, but will consider March 14-16 as well. Best policy would be to go both weekends. Please Advise.
