    Dolphins

    I come out of Gunpowder; Middle River or Seneca Creek are generally my fuel stops. Generally not into the Bay, the salinity drops off once you get north of the Bay bridge. I was actually surprised to see them there. Decent sized pod too, coupla babies.

    Just thought I'd share a nice photo.

    Got the inside tour when a buddy of mine was stationed aboard. Most of the interior fixtures (at least as of 2008) have not changed, though berthing & machinery every few decades or so. Last major machinery upgrade was 2014-2018 when they temporarily homeported her at the CG Yard for a service...

    What is your worst day on the water?

    Recreationally is a toss up but both on my grandparent's old 1948 46' Chris Craft DCFB. First one was the last time he hauled out at the marina at the head of the river. That moron was supposed to lower the railway trolley down just enough to soak the hull so it had time to let the wood swell...

    Post a picture of your Crestliner

    The C775 mentioned in my signature and the reason not only will I never accept a free boat ever again (back in 2007) but now absolutely abhor 'glass work after stringers and floor. Cheap labor, cheap materials, long hours and went into it knowing how my skin reacts to it. The 250 was locked up...

    NEW YORK KNICKS ARE THE WORLD CHAMPIONS!!!!!

    And then the fans in the city tore the place apart. Tried to murder a few unfortunate Spurs fans. Set some buses on fire, tore some others (plus police cars) apart. Saw a video of a cabbie watching helplessly as they destroyed his cab. Animals. I spent two years at Kings Point, lived on LI...

    Weak tell tale on muffs?

    My 115 Mariner peed pretty steady on the hose but I had a good quality set of muffs. I had to get a trough for my Yamaha F150, even good muffs weren't enough.

    Mercruiser motor swap

    Saw one of those for sale with a Merc Reman 300hp 350 hooked to a Bravo 3. You could upgrade to the newer 4.5 V6 at 225hp; personally no one has ever complained of too much power. 300hp 350 at least. Beyond that you need to consider maybe changing the drive as it may not have a long life...

    Cigarettes, shocked!

    Only $12 a pack now? When I left Long Island in 2010 they were $10 a pack back then. Last I heard they were up around $15 or more.
