I miss her. Original poster closed to further replies. Wonder what she is up to? She is always welcome here...as long as she includes some of her famous poses. One can only hope her bikini wardrobe includes many we have not seen before. Time for some prancing, eh? Tease, tease, tease.

cb32863, we understand. And there are probably many who would agree with you. Personally, I did not agree with the content of the thread when it first started. However, Steph and Brian chose to make these posts, knew what they were signing up for, and the posts do not violate the forum's rules.

As a public forum, there will always be dissenting opinions on a variety of topics. I, for one, am not a big fan of racing, and have you ever see some of the racers? Whoa. :laugh:

Anyway, here at SBO we strive to keep everyone happy although it does not always work out that way. The Boat Babe thread has been closed for a long time. If we were to delete it there would be an outcry because many enjoyed her posts. Although scantly clad, she never went beyond. SBO is not into censoring unless the content is really offensive.

Can this be construed as porn? Well, yes and no. It depends on who is looking. So the best thing to do is not look. In fact, there is a way you can officially ignore the thread. Yep, it sounds like a cop-out, but the thread has always been a nuanced decision. It doesn't violate our rules, it's not exploiting anyone, but we also can't embrace the spirit of it. And so it lives on as a snapshot in time. While some of us may not like the content, there will always be some degree of that in a public forum.

Good answer Phil. And it is properly in the Sails Call Lounge. I don't recall any of the posts in that thread being of poor taste, but I could have missed a few in the thousands posted.
Live and let live.

I saw several in the last few pages. Sounded like a bunch of dirty old men. :huh:

Yes @Phil Herring , I ignore many threads here and I thought about that with this one. But, its just so juvenile to make such a request and if you want to go poking around the interwebs for bikini babes and anything beyond that, one has that ability. I just found the creation of a new thread in regards to it to be, as I said, quite juvenile. I also let me opinion be know, I could have been harsher but, ya know, ya get hand slapped or worse if you do that around here. So anyway, I fully am aware and understand where you as SBO are coming from but, you will never keep everyone happy. I personally think the ignore button is one of the best things that has been added to SBO in years, even asked for it over at SailNet but, they said it would be too much work or something..... Anyway..... on to clicking the button.

I miss her as well. I had to delete and edit far too many comments that were crossing the line of being disrespectful and frankly, things you just would not want said to your wife. She had not logged in for a considerable amount of time so I closed the thread. She still has not been on since Dec. 2018.

I hope they are both doing well. It was great to see the Solar Stick become successful.

So, just on a whim today I decided to check to see whatever became of this thread... It has been way too long since we have posted... mostly due to business, life, etc. So... much overdue greetings from St Augustine!

I'll give a more comprehensive update soon, but for those who wonder what's happening with the Boat Babe, I will happily report that she continues to fulfill her duties, albeit on a much different boat than the one that started her "Babe" career. These photos were taken just about 5 minutes ago... ;-)

Cheers!

Looks like you have moved from the MonoHull to a South African buillt Catamaran.

They make very nice boats to cruise the waters of the Caribbean.

Best answer…if you don’t like it, find it offensive, or just get bored with it, it REALLY EASY to hit IGNORE THREAD and you won’t see it again..

I just wish you could IGNORE THREAD from this page:
F188E55E-4DE1-4957-B8C1-DDA4932E075A.png



I love this “Recent Activity“ page, but there threads that I don’t have an interest in. Would love to be able IGNORE right next to “Mark as Red”.

I sure like the forum, despite the difficulty in keeping everyone happy all of the time.

Keep up the good work Phil and team!

Greg
