i'll be the first to say i will NOT be the first to post ANYTHING non
boating related. of course, if some idiot chooses to do so then
anything can happen


so what do you think, crew...anyone up for the challenge?


I think your header is a good way to start. No politics or religion (added). I'd add a ban on
personal insults also.


Then, add no answering to the fools who violate the resolution. Just because someone can't stop
themselves doesn't mean you, or anyone else, should allow 'anything to happen'.


I notice Harry wished you well, but didn't say 'yes' or 'no'.


Also add NO RECIEPES, or MOTORBIKES, or GOLF, or ****TY TOYOTA TRUCKS,
or CANCER POSTS (call me a hard ass, but they're just too dam
depressing !!)


I'm in favor of all those "no-no's," and if you can add in grandchildren
and dumb dogs, it'll be a winner. Oh...I think recipes using seafood
you've caught are reasonable.

Dogs and grandkids make good boating partners though. Motorbikes are
helpful. An aquaintance of mine has a 33 ft. Wellcraft on the Lake of
the Ozarks, and on it he has a couple of Honda Express motor scooters.
They use them after thy dock at other places and run around on them to
restaurants etc. Light enough to man handle over the side on the dock.
On the back of my old 27 ft. Chris craft, i was thinking on strapping
a 75cc honda to the swim platform for the same reason. Licensed, it
would have been great for going down the Illinois, to St. Louis, or up
to Peoria and running up town etc.

Motorcycles are cool.


Yeah they are...
