    Bowrider I/O Trolling/Kicker suggestions

    I am looking for some input from this knowledgable community. I am a Noob! 1990 Welcraft, primary use is pulling the offsprings around on a tube.

Hood, from the Columbia river could vanish for months at any given time, so I loaded up the family and we put the boat in. First time I stopped, the fun was over. The starter turns...

    Only allowed to vote for one party's candidates?

    My wife and I received out ballots in the mail a few days back. Apparently, in the state of Washington (how wide spread is this?) you can only vote for candidates within the party you choose to affiliate with. My wife is a Democrat and I like to consider myself more of an independent with a...

    In The Name Of Patriotism C&P

    We all know that it is a sin for an Islamic male to see any woman other than his wife naked, and that he must commit suicide if he does. So next Sunday at 4:00 PM Eastern time, all American women are asked to walk out of their house completely naked to help weed out any neighborhood...

    Redefining terrorism

    trim tabs = no foil?

    When I bought my boat, it already had the hydrofoil mounted above the prop. My boat was listing hard to port on plane. Installing Smart Tabs fixed me problems, while helping my extremely stern-heavy boat plane faster as an additional benefit. My question is, should I remove the hydrofoil? I...
