    Clever idea. I wish that I could use this kind of idea to off load some projects. Smart.

    Evening,
    Actually Fish it's find a gal a boat. She's been on another forum for a year looking for the 'ideal' vessel.

    She must be one of the longest running trolls on the internet. A quick search will reveal a lot of controversy she has caused on other boating forums, best ignored.

    I came to the conclusion a long time ago that she's trolling with an empty hook.

    Just for fun, I read through some of her other posts on her blog. Here are a couple of examples of her "knowledge".

    She is still under the impression Dubai is the largest yacht in the world.

    She also seems to think she can run the boat for ~20k a year.

    I skimmed through her blog and an epic thread on cruisersforum and there's something that's not quite right.

    I suppose it's possible that she really is that wide-eyed and clueless and thinks posting on the Internet will get her all the information she needs to buy and run a 65' yacht. I guess the reason I can't quite bring myself to call her a troll is that trolls usually have some underlying motive - annoy people, get noticed... something - and in this case I can't figure out what that motive would be.
