    Your opinion requested

    Ok, I will admit that I don't know what this boat should cost. What would your opinion be? I know it won't win any beauty contests. http://anchorage.craigslist.org/boa/4695442870.html For a 28' boat, this price seems low to me even accounting for age. AK Chappy

I did not have insurance on it specifically (would cover it if I crashed it out in the wilderness or such). I called my insurance agent, amazingly since...

    To Plug or Not To Plug

    I was looking at some ink drawings in our local stores. I liked the artist and looked him up on line. I found this one in the comedy section. I thought it was appropriate for here. :D http://www.sunjamstudios.com/ToPlug.html AK Chappy

So I pretty much stripped the dryer down to a shell. I even kept the gas heating element. I thought it would...
