    I have returned... with a Starcraft this time!

    Yeah, I ordered better scrubber pads and received them today. Sadly, they don't match the product description and may not be heavy-duty enough. They were the second product today that didn't match the description. :grumpy:

    Winter Weather (First day of winter)

    Yeah, it was 44 here when I got up this morning. Hit 70 about 15 minutes ago but has dropped to 67 now. This pic is from our summer vacation this year. We were in Erie, PA at Presque Isle park on the lake. That exact same spot is now covered with 53" of snow and it's still falling! That makes...

    Lunch!

    Last night a buddy dropped by and gave us some venison. My wife put some in the crock pot this morning. She turned up her nose at the gamey smell, so she only prepared enough for the boy and myself. But when it was ready to eat, she bravely tasted a sample... and immediately regretted not...

    I have returned... with a Starcraft this time!

    Got a little more stripping done on the bow section of the boat this afternoon. We went at it in a meticulous manner and that did help. Finally got the tough stuff done. Very, very slow though. I tested with a nylon sanding wheel and a wire wheel. They badly scratched the hull and didn't...

    I have returned... with a Starcraft this time!

    This afternoon the boy and I went out and did a little more stripping work. Since the scrubbies I ordered won't be here for another week, I experimented a little with one of the small ones I bought locally. It worked okay. It loaded up a bit with the goop and also scratched into the...

    Starcraft on C-list/ebay!

    Don't know which model this is but it's 17' 6" LOA. Hull with title and matching trailer for $750. Not bad for around here. I just don't understand why folks don't CLEAN their boats before advertising them. :noidea: https://tampa.craigslist.org/hdo/bpo/d/flats-boat-project-17-6/6433557627.html

    I can't log in

    Well it certainly is interesting. As can be seen in this screenshot, I'm logged in under BWRTEMP, my "new" screen name. And yet the system is showing my posts, etc. under the regular one. I hope it all gets straightened out okay. I'm getting the shakes over here! :lol:

    This is BWR1953 The new site isn't letting me in. I saw the notice to request new password. Did that. No email was in my Inbox of record. (No, not in the Spam folder either.) Tried creating a new account with that same email address and got an error that said that the email I was trying to...

    I have returned... with a Starcraft this time!

    Talked to the doc this afternoon and she put me back on Prednisone. I expected that. But at least it's a lower dosage. I'll be starting low and working up if necessary. Her initial recommendation was for me to start high then taper down quickly. But that drug has destroyed me :attention: a...

    Temps are supposed to be warmer this week. I hope I'll be feeling better. Will definitely be calling the doc tomorrow.

    I have returned... with a Starcraft this time!

    Guys, I'm bummed. :grumpy: The weather warmed up today so the boy and I went out to do a little more hull stripping. With very poor results. The air temp was about 70 degrees and we moved the boat out to the south side of the garage to have the sunshine warm it up. We did the same with the...

    Disappearing restorations.

    Wow, I counted over 100 not-finished projects in that list. Whew! Yes, I actually counted. :rolleyes: I had plenty of time in the doctor's waiting room this morning. :cool: I'm trying to get mine on the completed side of things! :lol: Which brings me onto topic. I'd suspect that a fair number...

    1989 Bass Tracker TX-17

    I bought a brand new 1985 Bass Tracker Tournament TX-17 with a Mercury 50HP outboard with power tilt and trim. Very similar setup to yours. And my top speed was 32MPH with just me and gear. It was 28MPH with me and my lightweight family. But with me and my 250 lb. cousin I couldn't even get...
