It is good to see you finally admit you only have one boat.

The truth will set you free. ; )

During hurricane season, fixed docks make me crazy as there is no

pilings or when the storm surge really goes up impaling itself on

pilings. What a stupid situation.

So......What we really need is a sort of ratcheting device that
keeps
your boat centered between pilings based on the differential
tension
on
docklines. It'd be spring loaded to either take line in or let it
out
depending on differential load. It'd require no power of course.
It'd
allow your boat to rise or fall a lot to take up storm surge but
would
keep her centered 'tween pilings. The real problem I see is how to
attach said device to the boat and every boat differs. Fitting it
would be empirical for each situation and I assume it would be
kinda
expensive.
What Y'all think?

I think I'll do what I did last time: store my boat on the high and
dry.

So now we finally have proof that there is no custom made 36 foot
lobster
boat, just that modest 25 foot fishing boat.

Sooner or later all liars get caught in their lies.

Did you get that "proof" notarized and certified?

Yes.

And who in ther
right mind really cares if Krause has one leaky canoe or a fleet of
new Hinkley's?

rusty redcloud

No one. However it was nice to see the liar get tripped up in his own
lies.

How about YOUR lies, Jim?

What lies Kevin?

Kevin whining abotu lies? Priceless.

No wonder remains the "King"
