He went on to point out that my comments have upset a lot of Ribeye and iCom owners in the past and that showed a great deal of insensitivity on my part. So I would like to offer my sincere apologies to all Ribeye and Icom owners , (apart From Dino) that I have upset, having now realised that Icom Radios are perfectly matched to Ribeye Boats.

I also realised that iCom owners are a very sensible lot as none of you took that bet, including I may add WhiteShoes!

About 4 weks ago Whiteshoes son told me they were having trouble selecting channels!

Whiteshoes comfirmed today that they have an intermittent problem with the channel selection.

Is that OK for you Mr. Manning

That's fine with me. mate. I wouldn't dream of placing a gagging order on anyone.

As it happens, this weekends advanced students are Ribeye owners. To avoid the possibility of friction, I'll pass them on to another instructor.

Do not despair though. I have found you alternative employment antifouling a 50ft yacht. While you're doing this you can muse on the difference between the words 'principle' and 'principal'.

I already know the difference

A principle is something, usually a rule or norm, that is part of the basis for something else. For example, the ethics of someone may be seen as a set of principles that the individual obeys. These principles form the basis for their ethics.

Principles may also be introduced as pedagogy: laying down basics in a topic, in order later to proceed to more detailed developments.

Identifying or defining a rule as a principle says that, for the purpose at hand, the principle will not be questioned or further derived. This is a convenient way of reducing the complexity of an argumentation.

A principal however is sum nobber that runs a Training Skool.

I quite like Antifouling by the way, how may ducks do I have to shoot
