Here's a revolutionary thought: why not just ignore these assholes to
the degree possible, and just let them continue to **** on rec.boats and
give each other handjobs? You wouldn't associate with trash like loogy,
ingerfool, flajim, et cetera, in in real life...why do so here?

Unfortunately as ususal, what you say doesn't square up with the
facts.. Look at the posts the last few weeks. You and your crew bonnie
and slammer have posted dozens of unanswered attacks and insults a
day... So it's us that has been ignoring you, and of course that's
what ****es you off the most...


It takes two or more to tango. If everyone stopped with the snarlyness
(is that a word?), this might be a much better place.

Can't be done. Harry and Don have to keep **** stirred up to cover up
the lies they spread.


Hey, why not give it a try? What do you have to lose?


Whomever the spoofer is that you're responding to, has made it his
vocation to be a flaming asshole. The content or context of Harry and
Don's postings have nothing to do with whether he responds or posts
stupid insults.

He's the worst offender here and has been for months.



Maybe he'll stop if no one plays with him. If he doesn't stop, then he's
outed himself as someone who isn't worth much.

Have fun, John.!

Well, this is what I get for a fast decision to go boating. Usually I pick the
boat up the night before and check the battery, etc. Today I just hooked up the
boat, drove to the ramp north of the airport, launched the boat, and hit the
starter.....nothing. ****!!!

So, I'm back home, battery is on the charger, and we're waiting for it to get
charged. Hell, even the hot shot didn't have enough juice to crank the engine.

Oh well, live and learn - not to take shortcuts.


I have had a few of those hot shot things, cheap and expensive, none of
which has ever started anything for me...


This wasn't a cheap one, that's for sure. I should have plugged it in last
night. But, the gauge said it was 'ready'. Maybe it was ready for a battery at
75%, but not mine!


Can you find a spot for a second battery? I am under the impression you
have only one.

Like I said, I have had good ones too, they just aren't worth it. Now I
have twenty foot jumper cables, good soft ones. But of course they still
might not reach the boat. But did you consider taking the battery out of
the tow vehicle and jumping the boat?


I carry jumpers and asked a guy in a new bass boat to give me a jump. He didn't
know if he could, 'cause he didn't know where the battery was. Well, we found
the battery and hooked up the cables. I then asked him to rev the engine up a
little. He said he couldn't because the boat would start going forward. So I
showed him how to take it out of gear and rev the engine. (At that point he said
he should read the book!)

Anyway, even with the cables connected and the engine at about 1500 rpm, mine
would still not turn over. I'm tellin' ya, my battery was dead. That's D-E-A-D!

I have very little room under the CC. Here's my boat:

Run the switch on one battery and use a combiner to charge the 2nd battery.
And your boat has as an option a 2nd battery switch and wiring, so ask the
maker where they put number 2 battery.

Pilots and co-pilots have this little ritual of doing a preflight
checklist of important things before takeoff. Maybe Mrs H would be
willing to take ownership of something like that since wives seem to
always take interest in "honey do" lists.
