    running trouble after a cooling off period.

    Morning folks. Couple questions and a bit of backstory. Try not to be bored reading this novel… Have had some trouble with the Carver not running well after we make our initial run (cove or lunch / fuel) usually sitting for an hour or so. The initial run is always flawless, usually 5 to 8...

    1983 75 hp Rude prop concern (new prop)

    Just double checked to make sure I ordered the correct prop and I did - even went with a OEM. Got it on and there is a slight rub when turning - just enough resistance to not allow a full spin if I just flicked it. Appears to be rubbing the motor where they join. Put the old back on and no...

    Jerky Juice

    any jerkers here? I'm been playing around with it for a few months, got some nice equipment, sometimes I get 10 lbs in it. Haven't found 'the' formula yet, may be in part to my not writing things down but getting close should start. Roughly two parts soy, 2 teriyaki, one worcestershire, a...

    Bonaroo 2015

    one mile from my house. Our little 15,000 person town has usually around 85,000 visitors for a long weekend. Thankfully we live in a non linear roadway to there so we don't see the traffic if we stay home (and stock up on everything by tuesday). I took the old highway home from the airport today.

    1963 Lone Star Medallion all 16' of fun

    Calling it a 'refresh' rather than a 'restoration' because (at the moment) I'm not going to do to the level as you guys; I'm just after a workable little fun boat. Some last minute reading on 64osby's scrap thread and a quick last minute call to jbcurt and I felt like it was worth a shot to...

    My 'new' office.

    I travel quite a bit (40+ per year) and am lucky that I do not have to go to the office when home. Used to use the kitchen counter, then the boy moved out of the bonus room upstairs so I've been gathering up stuff to move up. Some of this is sentimental, some just junk, but its MINE and my view...

    raise your hand if you are an idiot

    Went to pull the Carver out of storage. Got a few things I need to do then take it to get de-winterized and some other stuff beyond my scope/desire. Pulled the cover off , backed the (new to me) truck up to it and realized I sent my receiver home with my brother who got the old truck...

    The Delta Queen

    "If you love somebody, let them go, for if they return, they were always yours. If they don't, they never were." I doubt that 19th-century spiritualist and philosopher Khalil Gibran was talking about a docked and dilapidating steamboat, but the sentiment still applies. It’s time to...

    Any fresh fish places you know of? Getting the good stuff in FL couple weeks ago has me jonesing for more. Our store in our little town had none just frozen. I have to pick up my brother at the airport this afternoon. I'm coming up north on 65 if there's anything along that corridor, then...
