Greetings,
Mr. BBoat. I'll apologize up front. I can't remember any specific threads I could direct you toward due to the fact my memory is pretty well non existent. Maybe one of the other members would care to suggest one or two.
I can fully appreciate the frustration you may be experiencing when you ask a simple question and the answers devolve into non related territory but as I mentioned, the thread drift in your case is mild and was caused by, for want of a better description, "nit picking".
I reviewed your thread in it's entirety and it pretty well stays on topic until the late 60's. So, take heart. It's not all bad. At least you're not being tortured on anchors. That, my friend, will surely come.
