Denise Shull Says Tape Reading Art is Real and Alive

Quote from marketsurfer:

You need to be careful about the names you throw around, Jack. Some of us actually are friends with the people you are talking about.


I know Oliver Moore of yachting magazine. I have spent time on his boat at the ocean reef club in key largo. He has never heard of you and knows nothing about a yacht sale to his treasurer.

I agree he knows nothing about my sales from and to the, then treasurer of Yatching Magazine. We did the last deal in Trader Vic's (by then they were divorced and each one gave me a check for half the deal) Guess who the boat was given to. You are neuveau.

In addition, I have contacted Glen Larson to determine if he has even ever heard of you let alone hosted an event with your students. Will advise of the response.

The number is 1-800-802-3282 (from memory....lol) The location was NYC; it is across the river from where you live.

by the way I grew up in Greenwich..
you claim they could fit big boats down at the Marina?

How long was your boat?
 
Quote from jem:

really jack? In the cove?

What size size was your yacht.
Where did you have it specifically.

Was in moored or did you have tied up with all the small boats.

200 pound mushroom on 3/4 inch chain about as far out as moorings where placed. My dinghy was in a slip on a pontoon dock at the park. I could not bring my boat into the dock area (too much draft) when tides were the usual.

I also sailed out of Maine. Wife's family had a dark harbor 12 and a friendship ketch rigged (both moored) Both were moored at end (eastern) of Handcock Point on north side of the point.

Luckily, I have had some great racing experience and knew a few great designers and skippers.

thanks for asking.

interesting because by my definition of yachts. I do not recall seeing yachts in the cove. Maybe you are thinking of somewhere else.

Thanks

My bad.

There was no marina, just a power boat club at the head of the dock.

No big boats could come into the public docks. An owner of the Green Lantern did have a float to one extreme side (port sideupon entry) of the interior cove. His boat was yawl riggd and built in Holland thus the shallow draft on the keel 4 tons of keel my guess). I only had 2 tons and it ws Swedish design.

The King's Cruiser is well documented. Mine was US 122. ET has posted pics of it in the past.

I lived in Rock Ridge between the ages of 29 and 34. You could see my home (4 bedrooms, heated garage, etc....) from the back courts of the Greenwich Tennis club.

I presume you mean the Field Club.

I played at a different club (baliwick) .. but as a kid I played tennis at the Field Club a few times a summer.

One summer while I was in grad school I was the Tennis Pro at Burning Tree... the summer after they had to kick Ivan Boesky out of the club. I taught tennis to or worked out a few of the early hedge fund guys.
 
My days in Greenwich ended when I went to live in switzerland.

the summer of the move I was hired by Rocky point to teach the youth sailing.

At that time evey club had a dinghy fleet and club pick up boats were used to drag the dinghy fleets to other clubs.

At that time the Shield Class was replacing the Ones as day racing for adults.

I was on a Larchmont shields (#12) crew headed by Palmer Sparkman whose bride woked at RH.

Luder 16's were designed by the Rocky Point comodore and I knew the NYYC handicapper (whose small day racer was a Luders 16; His big boat was a bounty 2 (formerly Vat 69) named Ganemeade) and I was asked to handicap(with a new formula) the A and B class boats for the overnight races on the sound and elswhere.

At that time I was strategist on the Chub family boat out of Indian Harbor YC. So we raced agianst Pitney -Bowes (cotton blossem IV) and TJ Watson (Palawan) (Dutch build and tank tested at Davidoson Labs) , etc. My daughter was named after the NYYC's handicapper's daughter. (Lisa Fisher).

the purcahse of my boat was a 100% 2 year loan from fairfiled County Banks and trust. I pladeged stock, doubled it in two years and wlak out of the bank with my original collateral. for 6 months I traded consecutive NYE stocks to humor the bank loan watchers. they didn't catch on.

I had both my mercedes serviced on route 1 MB down the street (east) from the Esso and the library.

Did your mother sail?????

Keep smiling...

My uncle and his kids played golf out of burning tree. (the schwartz's) The eldest son won the tri-state while in College. Our family club was the Otsego club (The only one of the ten oldest in the US still on its original land). Three families contributed the land and several husbands went down on the Titanic. 20 families made up the membership.

An aunt had a 40 acre place (cold spring Harbor) opposite the Oyster bay YC on the burning tree side of the sound. Her NYC place ws a B stone on the upper East side.

For what ever reason the ancestors (Beekman) never sold land of their dairy farm . today some of the UN land ws donated where you see the Un south of Beekman terrace. The furniture is on loan to the NY Historical society who in turn loaned it to the Met. It is the largest single collection of American colonial furniture.

I have a commitment to watch the concert tonight.
So bye for now.

Look for the Beekman plaques on the buildings around Wall Street; the property is leased to this day.

With that said, how do you account for the preponderance of altruistic teacher types on this site who just "want to help" ?

I don't believe trading is about retail traders picking each others pockets. Simply too much money turning over there, it would be not worth it if the game was all about blowing up small traders.

Derivatives may be zero sum game technically, but in reality everything is interconnected and comes down to economic cycles, speculators grab the profits in exchange for taking risks. Perfectly ethical business in my view.
