I think GRF is suggesting Seamonkey is a poor mimic... which unfortunately means one of Grumpf's core POV about dinghy sailors is tragically flawed:

- dinghy sailors are humourless
- dinghy sailors are a dour

If Seamonkey isn't GRF, s/he's done a damn good job convincing us s/he is.

I was going to vote but its now closed and the only nationals i have done are mirrors in the 80s crewing the contenders in 91 laser 5000s in 2004 and vareos in 07,08,09,10,
And i won the 5000s that year
Vareos 2007,2010 so does that count
Retired now after 35 seasons in a row and time for a rest.
2004 national champ Laser5000
2007,2010,National Champ Rs Vareo

I think I may post as an alter ego......look out for Glamorous Gloria. I will be in touch with my feminine side. "How can I deal with itchy nipples in my wetsuit". That kind of thing...........

Nope, not me, the t**ser has been quite rude about the greatest dingy ever designed, can't quite see why I'd do that, not even reverse pimp psychology, it's not even a retail product.

I used the search function in the forum on the americanism "y'all" and found that with only one exception it seems to be exclusively used by just two posters. I wonder if by any chance they could be related (as Private Eye might say)...
