Shoot, with 100 or 150 boats, it's possible the only place you'd see another boat is at the ramp. Once you get up in the timber, you can't see a boat if it's 50 yards from you. (Quote by - Kallum Herrington)
Men in a ship are always looking up, and men ashore are usually looking down. (Quote by - John Masefield)
Water in the boat is the ruin of the boat, but water under the boat is its support. (Quote by - Jalal ad-Din Rumi)

Then the shark bites the boat. You've got a big shark, little boat, a guy standing in the middle . What was this guy thinking?. (Quote by - Bill Sisson)
From a little boat, to a big boat, to a helicopter, to an airplane. (Quote by - Kevin Johnson)
Don't apologize, Maurice, . I'll get the Guard coordination onto it from this end right away. Boats… damn', we should have had more BOATS ready, dammit. Helicopters, though. (Quote by - Steve Black)
Boating is a healthy family activity that builds skills and fosters team buildings. Studies show that kids benefit from boating -- and beside, the Spring Boating Expo is a fun alternative to these cold winter days. (Quote by - Van Snider)
I was born in the breezes, and I had studied the sea as perhaps few men have studied it, neglecting all else. (Quote by - Joshua Slocum)
Basically my wife was immature. I'd be at home in the bath and she'd come in and sink my boats. (Quote by - Woody Allen)

This was the impact we were expecting. When the Japanese buy bigger boats, it usually means they will be imports, since their local boat builders make very few models that are more than 30 feet in length. (Quote by - Tom Dammrich)
My Mom said she learned how to swim when someone took her out in the lake and threw her off the boat. I said, "Mom, they weren't trying to teach you how to swim.". (Quote by - Paula Poundstone)
The biggest danger in sailing is not the open ocean. It's hitting things. So if I have a thousand miles between me and land, a storm doesn't really upset me. If the boat's set up right, you get beat up a little bit, but the boat's going to handle it fine. (Quote by - John Moffitt)
It is a curious sensation: the sort of pain that goes mercifully beyond our powers of feeling. When your heart is broken, your boats are burned: nothing matters any more. It is the end of happiness and the beginning of peace. (Quote by - George Bernard Shaw)
The summer parallel is the fishing boat, and we just have to get people to understand that concept. We are the wintertime fishing boat. (Quote by - Tom Lykken)
The pessimist complains about the wind; the optimist expects it to change; the realist adjusts the sails. (Quote by - William A. Ward)
A small craft in an ocean is, or should be, a benevolent dictatorship. (Quote by - Tristan Jones)
Certainly we've had some stints where we averaged over 25 knots for an hour, and then you're up to the 600-mile day scenario. A lot of the guys here were the first to do 500 miles, and it would be nice to get the 600 but as always we're here to win points. We keep reminding ourselves that we don't need to win this leg where perhaps other boats do, and so we mustn't allow ourselves to be pressured into pushing the boat too hard. (Quote by - Mike Sanderson)
Give a man a fish and feed him for a day. Give him a fishing lesson and he'll sit in a boat drinking beer every weekend. (Quote by - Alex Blackwell)
Well, trepidation could be the term for it. Yes, we'll definitely exercise some judgment and caution with these boats. The typical Southern Ocean conditions will be rough for these boats. I think we know a little bit about them now, to be able to anticipate rough conditions and adjust the setup of the boat accordingly so we don't suffer damage. (Quote by - Paul Cayard)
The objection has been that people living in the far north couldn't have gotten across the Atlantic because they didn't have boats; that they didn't venture out into the ocean ice. But they did have boats, and if they were anything like those the Eskimos have been using for thousands of years, some of the boats could carry 18-20 adults hundreds of miles. (Quote by - Dennis Stanford)
Whatever floats your boat.and doesn't sink mines. (Quote by - Brandi Keeler)
In the last race, we discovered that each boat's performance had very little to do with sailing, . It had much more to do with the leadership that we as skippers were exhibiting, and with our ability to develop the full potential of our teams. All of the skippers were extremely good yachtsmen. All of them excelled at managing the boat. But ultimately, the race is all about managing people. (Quote by - Simon Walker)
Because this is not a race all boats, regardless of their engine size can enter, the winner will be determined by the draw of the card and not how fast your boat can run. (Quote by - David Wallace)

If you can not arrive in daylight, then stand off well clear, and wait until dawn. After all, that's one of the things God made boats for to wait in. (Quote by - Tristan Jones)
They turned east and, soon after, lost the bet. The wind dropped, they missed the most favorable position to cross the Doldrums, and they slipped to eleventh place. Fed up with the conditions, members of the crew began to lose faith in their strategy. One crew member complained that he had wasted three years of his life training for the race. The solution was to reset the goal. I called the crew up on deck, and we discussed what had happened, 'We're in the eleventh position,' I told them. 'We can't think about winning. We're going to set ourselves new targets to beat as many boats as we can, one boat at a time.'. (Quote by - Simon Walker)
Anyone can hold the helm when the sea is calm. (Quote by - Syrus Pubilius)
For the most part, the same boats have been out in front in the big breeze the last three races. It's pretty clear what boats are good in those type of conditions. (Quote by - John Kostecki)
We spent a week together earlier this summer, . I got up at 6 a.m. to work out on the boat and he's in the office on the boat looking at film. He just works nonstop. (Quote by - Wayne Huizenga)
Being hove to in a long gale is the most boring way of being terrified I know. (Quote by - Donald Hamilton)
We were sailing the boat faster and faster as the week went along. Boat speed is always the key and we were able to come back in a bunch of races. We were real deep today and worked our way through the fleet. (Quote by - Russell Coutts)
I believe that the captain started to try to steer into the waves from this speedboat. When he turned, the left side of our boat, and the front of the boat, started to take on water. This caused the boat to roll over very quickly, throwing everyone into the water. (Quote by - Russell Quick)
The boat was overloaded with more than 70 people in it. Passengers panicked when water started seeping in and some people jumped into the river, shaking the boat which toppled and capsized. (Quote by - Anil Kumar)

There's a big charter boat in San Diego. I wake up at 5 o'clock in the morning, get on the charter boats and won't come back until the next day. (Quote by - Joel Zumaya)
I took it from the AC Acts. I like change and taking people out of the comfort zone. It makes them better. If two boats are fun, six boats are a show. I have always thought it was a waste of great talent to have 6 of the 10 sitting around with nothing to do on the last day. Now they will have fun, fight for money and provide a greater spectacle. (Quote by - Randy Smith)
Out of sight of land the sailor feels safe. It is the beach that worries him. (Quote by - Charles G. Davis)

Ships are the nearest thing to dreams that hands have ever made. (Quote by - Robert N. Rose)

We must get out of the boat, but don't get out before He tells you to walk or you might sink. (Quote by - Debra Roberts)

You have a series of old boats, you have some very new expensive boats and we can't control the price of fuel. (Quote by - Robin Taylor)

I don't oppose the boat ramp; I actually personally support a boat ramp if it's properly sized and designed. (Quote by - James Olson)

We have had a few minor boating accidents, including one after the Jimmy Buffett concert (at Riverbend Music Center Aug. 21), but nothing serious. (Quote by - Frank Floyd)
The important aspect of this show is the number of boats. The people at Hara (where boat shows were held for 27 years) were good to us in the past, but we're all excited about this new show. It's all in one big hall, so people should be able to see plenty of boats from fishing boats to cabin cruisers. (Quote by - Chad Taylor)
Anyone desperate enough for suicide.should be desperate enough to go to creative extremes to solve problems: elope at midnight, stow away on the boat to New Zealand and start over, do what they always wanted to do but were afraid to try. (Quote by - Richard Bach)
Prevention is, as in other aspects of seamanship, better than cure. (Quote by - Sir Robin KnoxJohnston)

To the question, When were your spirits at the lowest ebb? the obvious answer seemed to be, When the gin gave out. (Quote by - Sir Francis Chichester)
All a manatee needs, we have found, is a chance to get out of the way of an oncoming boat. We have scientific proof that manatees can sense a boat and attempt to move away. A fast boat doesn't give the slow moving animal an opportunity to get out of the way. (Quote by - Patti Thompson)
In the mornings we would get there early and design the boats. We built four boats a day and then would test them out. (Quote by - Ben Hudson)
If you can't repair it, maybe it shouldn't be on board. (Quote by - Lin and Larry Pardey)

There is nothing more enticing, disenchanting, and enslaving than the life at sea. (Quote by - Joseph Conrad)
I'm happy every time we can go out and execute our race plan well. It was a good start because each boat went out and raced with the type of speed they'll need to when they face some of our tougher competitors, even when they got some separation from the boat next to them. I definitely think we have more speed ? we'll find it. (Quote by - James Egan)
If you boat a lot, you're known as a boating enthusiast. I like to boat, but I just don't want to ever be referred to as a 'boating enthusiast'. I hope they call me 'a guy who likes to boat'. (Quote by - Mitch Hedberg)
Did he fall overboard? Did he just walk off the boat and disappear? Was it accidental, was it deliberate? Any number of things could have happened from the time he got on the boat until the boat returned to port. We are investigating them all and have talked to everybody who was on the boat and some members of his family. (Quote by - Savannah Trotinksy)
The sail, the play of its pulse so like our own lives: so thin and yet so full of life, so noiseless when it labors hardest, so noisy and impatient when least effective. (Quote by - Henry David Thoreau)
Like watermen who look astern while they row the boat ahead. (Quote by - Plutarch)

The chance for mistakes is about equal to the number of crew squared. (Quote by - Ted Turner)

It's like fishing -- you got to get that first one in the boat. Once you get that first one, the skunk is off the boat and everything's cool from then on. You've got to get that first one. Once he gets the first one, I know he'll be fine. (Quote by - Dusty Baker)
The hardest thing to remember is that what we each really want is the truth of our lives, good or bad. Not rocking the boat is an illusion that can only be maintained by the unspoken agreement not to feel and in the long run it never really works. Let go of saving the boat and save the passengers instead. (Quote by - Kenny Loggins)
I hate that we ended up with 71 boats, but we did the right thing. I can understand why a lot of guys didn't want to go.

(Quote by - Bobby Carter)
People's appetites for big boats continue to grow. I don't think it's a conspicuous consumption phenomena. I think it reflects the fact that people want to go further and further on their boats; they want to be independent from land. (Quote by - Jim Gilbert)

With a very confused sea and the boat slamming into the waves, crawling through the boat is probably the safest way of moving around, because the movements are very abrupt and unexpected. (Quote by - Bouwe Bekking)
I'd like to have a beer-holder on my guitar like they have on boats. (Quote by - James Hetfield)
The days pass happily with me wherever my ship sails. (Quote by - Joshua Slocum)
Whenever your preparations for the sea are poor; the sea worms its way in and finds the problems. (Quote by - Francis Stokes)
Not that there is anything funny about the whole thing, but there is some humor in seeing all these toys thrown around. Those who can afford to have a boat aren't at risk because we lost our boat. Some people lost everything, but you can feel the power of the storm out here because things were strewn in ways you can't imagine. (Quote by - Greg Rigamer)
The dog was very, very happy to be pulled out of that boat, . Weak, and very scared, and very happy to be pulled out of that boat. (Quote by - Paul Berry)

There is always a perfect balance between locals and visiting sailors, big boats and small boats. We still expect our traditional rush of additional entries on Thursday. (Quote by - Tracy Roberts)
