I'm not referring to those boaters whose good quality maintenance and
repair skills are obvious.

Harry, why doesn't anyone want to go boating with you? It was a shame
you had to sell you 25' Parker because no one would go out with you, not
even your wife.

His Mrs wouldn't go because he refused to take the padlock off the head.
What a guy. Eh?

Of course there are those here who fantasize about boats they own and
things they have done. The closest one very frequent poster here gets
to salt water is when he ****es himself after drinking too much.
Dude, that rocking motion has nothing to do with boating, you're just
drunk.


Aren't you the one who said you drink too much? I think you are
fantasizing about yourself.

I still have beers left from a six pack I bought in August.
I did have a beer a few weeks ago at a brewery we visited...

Yep, I probably work through most of a six pack of beer a year, and if I
am somewhere really hot, a couple of margaritas a year.

That's what, your nightly intake of booze?

Oh...I can get to Chesapeake Bay, a tidal salt water body of water, in
less than five minutes. And when I get to my Parker, the engine starts
right up, no major pieces and parts are falling off, and the electronics
work. *You* can't say the same.

So, when's the combo ka-boom/X-Ray blast from your shop?
