Thread: Wind Sock question

Hey, DD..... I discovered this really cool thang.. it's called the INTRA net and Alphonse Gore invented it back in the 1700's..... anywho if you go on this here intra net and do a search before you go off and buy something that you don't need..... you can figger out what you need by reading up on it. You can read, can't ya?


GEEZ LOUEEZE, man......... Stop wasting money on crap you do NOT need!!!

Say it takes one to know one?

Wind sock = A windsock is a conical textile tube designed to indicate wind direction and relative wind speed. Windsocks typically are used at airports and at chemical plants where there is risk of gaseous leakage. They are sometimes located alongside highways at windy locations.
Drift sock = drift socks slow down your drift and keep your boat steady in waves and wind.

You trying to determine wind direction or slow your boat down?????????????????????? Doh

CN is right. You been parasailin round the lake holdin that green cup. Put them in the water and i bet your boat will slow down..DUHHH!!

it did but I was just curious if I closed the dang hole would it slow the boat down even more.

It may, but you gonna get really high up in the air doin that. You gotta have a permit for one of them there wind socks? Seen one once down out the ocean. Looked real intrestin

I would say, depending on what a person had for lunch, a windsock and a drift sock may be appropriate:D
