    Nobody fishing?

    We haven't been fishing since mid-March. I was hospitalized twice during that time and also went to the ER three other times. :cautious: We're also in the middle of a major home project with sub-projects, so what time I actually have (or had) is being absorbed by the project(s). The good...

    Material Availability for DIY/Home Improvement Projects?

    I'm in the middle of a major home improvement/construction project. I need to replace both outside stairs and their landings as part of the overall project. And the lumber cost has really skyrocketed way above the original budget. Ugh! :cautious: I have a friend who works in construction and...

    Material Availability for DIY/Home Improvement Projects?

    I'm seeing high lumber prices for sure. I saw a news report this week that the underlying reason is due to insufficient staff at the sawmills. They're not running at full capacity but demand is crazy high.

    Getting out of the boat

    Nope, I was just having a conversation, but I figured that you'd jump to that conclusion. :rolleyes:

    Getting out of the boat

    Really? I live in Florida too and as far as I know, there is no law against "power loading" a boat onto a trailer. Can you cite a Florida statute? And getting SHOT for loading a boat onto a trailer? Gotta be a really high crime area with some truly crummy people to get that kind of response...

    selling the Carver

    Ya never know, Joe. When I was living in Tampa 20+ years ago, I sold a boat to a fella in Australia. He direct wired the money to my account and arranged shipping himself. Once the funding was secured, he contacted the local shipper, who came out and picked the boat up. All I had to do was...

    Shoestring Starcraft SS160 Resto-mod - let the long slow road begin

    If you want the Gluvit to do its goodness, then yes you need to maneuver the hull around so that the Gluvit can seep down deep into all of the crevices. I moved my boat around quite a bit during application, but the end result was a bone dry hull. Period. 😎 I could have used only a quart of...

    Getting 1st Covid/Pfizer shot romorrow

    One of the best things that I liked about getting vaccinated was that I went back to my regular barber and got my hair cut for real! My wife really butchered my stepson's hair and I barely let her touch mine at all. I actually had enough hair for a small ponytail. :LOL: The barber hadn't...

    Main fuse on 1987 Mercury Classic 50 45hp keeps blowing

    When I was installing the tach for my 1985 Merc 50, it didn't work. I found two problems. 1 - the yellow tach wires from the stator to the rectifier were shaved off at the flywheel. I had to replace the stator. Pricey! o_O 2 - after I replaced the stator, I hooked everything up and it...

    Getting 1st Covid/Pfizer shot romorrow

    I had my first Moderna shot on Feb 3rd and my second on Mar 5th. 💉 I didn't have any bad reactions to either shot. Sore arm for a day or two, only at the injection site, but nothing else. :sneaky: I'm high risk and I have to tell you that it really took a load off my mind to be fully...

    weather station

    I'm currently in the market for one myself. Got a birthday coming up and put it on the list for my wife to get me. I've always wanted one with a rain gauge and anemometer. 🌧️ 🌪️ My primary requirement is that it must have 2 outdoor sensors. One in the usual place outside, but another inside...
