1-2 cups in the morning, some stretching, light exercise, start working on stuff for the Admiral and me. Never drank it at all til a few years ago when I used to work for an employer.

remember that, what year was it? btw, the Chiefs to have a short season this year (hopefully, but then again, not sure if the Bills fan in me wants that...)

Helpful thread and pics, thank you! That boat looks great, definitely better cosmetically than our 1991 Mastercraft. We're OK mechanically, for now.

if it's going to be raft (and not a boat), and who knows how long it'll float, just cover-up the existing deck surface

As a Bills fan, that could work in the Bills favor, but probably doesn't matter anymore Then, of course, there's this... "An Ohio woman has sued Buffalo Bills first-round draft pick Maxwell Hairston, accusing him of sexually assaulting her in 2021 when they both attended the University of...

That camper looks pretty-cool, and must be a hoot to pilot! Your sketch and plan to resto-mod the boat, then take an ocean voyage in it are inspiring. Your mariner-skills must be top-notch too. Looking forward to seeing/reading about your resto-mod and journey!

There it is - punchcards! In our first college engineering classes, we used punchcards and FORTRAN 77, then it was an HP with RPN. I still miss RPN, and sometimes try to use it on my little hand-held computer (aka "phone").

Rust and stuff in the cooling system? The risers on my "VP" V-8 had some in there when we put a new long-block in there a number of years back. After they were cleaned-up and reinstalled, the cooling-system in that boat worked great for quite some time.

The kids musta loved it, thanks for sharing! We had a great day out on 7th Lake in the Adirondacks with our son and wife running her Mom's boat out of their beautiful camp's boathouse on 7th lake, while our grandkids tubed. We stopped at "the beach", met some very nice people (we ended-up...

Good info above. Also consider the anti-siphon valve.

Same for us and the upper Niagara River/Lake Erie area - weather forecasts always watched closely to decide where to go for the day/night/etc

A common saying about the two best days of having a boat... I disagree.. the Admiral and I sold the 1998 25ft Wellcraft last week - very sad for me. Sure, she was a bunch of work, sure, but that's OK (especially with the help and support of the good people here). Now I'll focus on our other...

The order in which they're installed and ultimately snapped makes a difference. I wonder if the every couple years cleaning and spraying with water repellant has helped in this regard

You mentioned "remodeled it", maybe that added weight and changed 'er operating dynamics?

Many thanks to you and Joyce! Happy Dyngus Day (wish we had some ***** willows in our yard). We love Michigan, and now that I'm not employed (first day in over 40 years), going to go to our shared Family place in the Adirondacks this week to start getting that place, boats, etc. ready for more...

yes, boating and life, neither are not easy - "nothing worth- it, is easy" (one of our Dad-isms that makes him part of us)

Interesting article, I personally disagree with its last line "We have to find ways to show people that this is an option for them.” It's selfish, but I do not want to encourage many OTHER PEOPLE to be out on the water

that musta been hilarious

thought so, thanks for filling in some details - it was a bit of a story in these parts, international relations on the water are interesting here.

Never saw that one, tanks for sharing. Have lived near TO for a long time, when this song came out, remember thinking that's familiar airport code
