You can edit posts in Discourse, so now that he’s got it you could go delete it so it doesn’t linger forever out there waiting to be abused. It’s not so much a problem of unwanted calls. It’s a problem of someone accumulating the means to pass as you. The phone is just part of that and most of our data is out there somewhere, but why make it easy for them? It really does happen. I’ve had my identity stolen in a serious way, not just a stolen credit card, and it cost me multiple hundreds of hours to regain control. And the maintenance is ongoing. I promise you: deleting your phone number is easier.

Hi Brian

And thank you for the edit suggestion, Brian!

That is a nice feature vs the previous discussion group ability (especially when I see I had typos).

I have removed my number from the original post. I believe it is in the registry, so if others need to reach out, please join/renew your INA Membership!

I am shocked, just shocked that Peter G is North Korean spy! I never would have thought. I knew _Cakewalk III_ from when it moored just a 100 yards or so from _Rendezvous_. Word at the Club was never that Peter’s parents were North Korean spies, we always bet that they were spying for France. North Korea!

Just when you thought you knew someone.

As you can see from this thread, Earl, the Nonsuch community is far and away the most helpful and supportive boat owners group I’ve seen in over half a century of boating experience across seven different boats.

Aside from being a den of spies, that is.

I’d say good guess. I did New London to Fairfield numerous times about 55 nautical miles in a Cape Dory 25D and it was between 10-12 hours. You hope for a S or SW getting there!

Congrats and welcome Earl . Gary / Aloki ( a 30 U) here in Oyster Bay ( a short sail from Stamford) with wonderful , calm anchorages.

I’d endorse joining the Western Long Island Sound ( which encompasses harbors west of Stratford Shoals) as we’ve held workshops and raft ups over the last few years. Last year’s raft up was in Port Jefferson. A fun time had by all. Best, Gary

Note a Korean spy - fourth on the left.

Hi,

I’m not sure what you are inviting me to, but sounds like it would be fun…
