discuss...

I'm leaning towards Jack D (for mixing with the supplied Cokes) and maybe a rum. Alcohol is verbotten so you dont want smells to give you away (I know Jack, right?)

1. Grain alcohol - stretches longer.
AND, you can mix it with damn near anything except milk.

2. Who else in on the boat?
A lot depends upon the answer to that question. And are we limited to liquor here, or could I fill a flask with LSD? Chloroform?

3. Vodka and scotch.
Vodka, because it mixes with just about anything. Scotch, because it is just want you want after a cold or wet tour on watch before you get some sleep.

Alcohol is not verboten unless you are the person actively operating the boat, similar to laws pertaining to driving a motor vehicle.

Happy sailing!

8. Mom, cbayer said I can take scotch on the boat
This is actually an Army Corps Job so, no it's definitely not allowed on board, plus I do 12 hour bridge watches.

But a little part of me thinks WWHSTD (what would hunter s thompson do). It is a 21-28 day job and BORING.

11. Alcohol is verbotten? Hmm...
Assuming I'm on a raft ;)

I'll fill one with SPF 100 sunscreen and the other with Everclear (calling it rubbing alchohol since the aroma is similar) to mix with the provided Cokes.

:D

12. Nothing wrong with alcohol.

And I will have beer and travel money, and many experiences :)


And in truth knowing that is all that is required, since even if in some material way, something like choice to have a beer is made more difficult, my thoughts on that topic, and many others are still mine, by logic and deduction, reason and best actions, and a little help of coarse.

:shrug:

and that is funny also.

:loveya:


I would probably have flasks full of salt water, but that is just the way I am. :D
