    Great loop speed record attempt

    Have seen some posts from this guy but just followed his page. He appears to be about my age aka old. Tiller 60 on a Jon boat. Current record appears to be held by a team, not one person like he is planning, at 19 days and 19 hours. His page...

    Back for More! Looking into a bigger boat for big water - Deck or other

    I too like the lower to the water style over a toon but for moving people it's the way to go.

    Back for More! Looking into a bigger boat for big water - Deck or other

    Are you actually looking to fit 10 people? Remember the limits are inclusive of gear and such. Be cognizant of total weight, especially if you are playing in or around big waters. Keep in mind that those numbers are from 40 plus years ago when Americans like me were not all fat. Iirc...

    Boat budget question

    Told my wife that on this (lightly promised) final boat project that I would a) track all monies spent and b) I would try really really hard to keep below $2000. It has been well established that tools and beer are not to be counted against any perceived budget but I have two additional...

    82 Starcraft MR 180 floor, slight refit and leaks

    Getting too old for this sh.... Five or so years ago put up the pressure water without draining tank or shutting off fuel line so I know I didn't stable the fuel either. Today after a few questionable starting procedures that might be illegal in several states, got her going. Had to run at...

    1982 MR 180

    Unpredictable storms today so stayed home and decided to run some dawn soap in the bilge and do some scrubbing. Then decided to run to home depot for some stuff but take the boat so the water could do some additional scrubbing for me. Unintended consequence as I hit the highway: Just...
