Pulling the post is certaily the author/blogger's right but it does not change my view of the quality of the original post and only whets my interest in your forthcoming new post. One of the things that percolated, unsaid, through your original post was that complacency lulls people into a false sence that a Plan B is not needed. So too does a lack of imagination which leads to a view that it can't happen to me, only to the other guy. While you did not include these words, they were implicit in your post. I really am looking forward to the next one whenever you are ready to share. In the meantime, I will enjoy the rest of your posts.<br /><br />Also, not sure if you know it yet but the Old Orchard Shoal Light off Great Harbor, Staten Island, got washed out by Sandy leaving just a pile of rocks swept clean. You have passed that light so many times in your travels.<br /><br />Jim M.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12084454.post-76528878447900398462012-11-08T15:30:10.039-05:002012-11-08T15:30:10.039-05:00Dick,
While I missed your "Box Canyon"...Dick, <br /><br />While I missed your "Box Canyon" item before you pulled it, your "retraction" entry makes me all the more anxious to read what you do finally post---as in all I do, risk-management is very important, and I look forward to your thoughts on it's application to cruising/life on a vessel. It will be important, and as such, I look forward to it! Please don't keep us waiting too long; it's obviously important for you too--common interests make your blog so valuable and worth following! <br /><br />Thank you!<br /><br />Chuck H.<br />Portland, ORAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12084454.post-52312934169065242842012-11-08T10:13:20.008-05:002012-11-08T10:13:20.008-05:00LOL Jim. Just as I was writing a rejection notice...LOL Jim. Just as I was writing a rejection notice for the box canyon post as being not good enough, you wrote a comment calling it superb.<br /><br />Thanks for the compliment. I just hope that my next try at the subject is indeed better.<br />Dick Millshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13258088586638718333noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12084454.post-44409471063218248802012-11-08T08:54:28.997-05:002012-11-08T08:54:28.997-05:00Dick --

It is the most clear and articulate writing that I have seen on why and how to think about risk in a boating environment but is very broadly applicable no matter the boating style.<br /><br />BTW, professionally, I am a risk manager as I run the credit function for financing large scale energy projects so I really appreciated the post both personally and professionally.<br /><br />Jim M. in CTAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
