HUGE Sigh of Relief


Did you hear it today?  It might have sounded like a wind blowing through your area but in reality it was us.  We let out a big sigh of relief - GIGANTIC.  I am not going to bore you with the details but mainly because it's all too raw and I get very worked up over it.  VERY !!!  Nor am I going to entertain any discussion in comments about this topic at this time...  Our sigh of relief? We were both able to obtain health insurance.  We have always been covered through my work, no problem. Unbeknownst to us, it can be an extremely difficult thing to get on your own.  But after many stressful, stressful weeks, we have it, or will May 1st. Whew!  Maybe someday I will post about our experience so others can learn from it.  Maybe not.

CodeLock SUCKS!















I will say it again.....CodeLock SUCKS! If you are looking at a used boat and it has CodeLock, run- don't walk in the the opposite direction. If someone gives you a boat for FREE (Caliber, Swan, Oyster..no matter) and it has CodeLock, pass. It's a good idea in theory but in reality it blows. I won't go into the details but let's just say that the freaking stuff won't unlock when the correct code is entered - not good! Then how does one unlock the units if the code won't work you ask? Why by send them back to the factory to be reset, of course! This makes perfect sense when one is out on the ocean sailing along, doesn't it! Argh!
Rumor has it that it was only on the market for about one year. And that the chief engineer on the project is now destitute, living in shame on some broken down cruiser that he can't even move because of the very Code Lock he invented!
*Ok, I made that last part up but it could be true....it's that crappy.
Now in Raymarine's defense....they apparently came to their senses as the ST60 line is CodeLock free and seems to work great.

My tech skills suck worse than a industrial vacum

My technology skills SUCK!!! I have worked for days and days and days on this stupid blog to update it with our latest fabulous trip. I was witty, cleaver, funny and entertaining...shut up...I WAS! I wanted to take one last swing to tweak things. Yep, you f'ing guessed it, I deleted it all. And FYI wireless keyboards fly an amazing distance. Don't email me about this. Don't comment. Don't nothing. I am ranting now. I will huff and puff and then it will be over. Un@#%@^$#*believable!!!!

Oh, and I will start over on our trip blog but it will probably be very simple and boring. Probably laced to satire and near boiling, hidden anger. ARHG!!!!!!

$#&^@*#$^$(^%#@%@!!!!!! I need a secretary or at least a teenager to do this shit for me! arhg!!!!!!
