There were nearly 2000 unread messages in rec.boats when I "logged in"
here. It's a new year, and I'm going to leave them unread.

So, anyone boating or fishing?

:)


No, but I did enjoy your postcard. Now, where are my pineapples and
coconuts and jar of beach sand? :)

Awe.....Harry's got another buddy that's stupid enough to believe the
Harrylies.


Apparently I was away when you switched your ID again. Which idiot are
and were you?

Spoofer suits you: there's nothing real about you or anything you post.


He's just another candidate for your "bozo bin." He's in mine.

And you'd better lockstep to whatever Harry says or he'll call you names
and insult you.

Yeo. You are the same dingbat with a different handle. Well, into the
trash dump you go. Say hi! to the boys already in there. :)

Damn, that makes me feel bad.

Yes, on our way to the FL Keys, no fishing yet but brought 3 trolling
rods with us and a bunch of lures. We're anchored tonight in the
wilderness area near Everglades City. Tomorrow we'll probably end up
in the Little Shark River, well back in the 'glades with no internet,
no cell service, no marine VHF coverage, no nada. It's a beautiful
area but not a good place to get in trouble. Three or four years ago
we had to rescue a guy in a fair sized flats boat who was stranded out
there in the boondocks with an engine that would not start.

Sounds nice. We are planning a trip to San Pedro, Belize and Caye Caulker.
Any recommendations for lodging? Looking hard at the Sunbreeze in San
Pedro.

You weren't missed. In fact I request that you go back to your paradise
to leave us to ours.

Yes, HF SSB radio works just about everywhere but it is not as
convenient for short range communication as marine VHF. Another
alternative is satellite telephone such as the Iridium system. For
most people a sat phone would be the smallest/easiest solution for
communication in remote areas.

Are you another disgruntled Tea Party fella?

My understanding from reading this newsgroup is that you are boatless,
have been boatless for many, many years, and have no intention of
getting a boat.

I have two boats, both in pretty good shape, one I use on Lake Zoar and
one I use in Long Island Sound.

On that basis, my presence here in "rec.boats" seems appropriate.

Why are you here?

Out on the mighty Lake Zoar, we use ordinary cell phones. It's not a
very big lake. :)

Out on the even more mighty Long Island Sound, though, it's not
difficult to get out of range of VHF. About 10-12 miles out and it is
sometimes hard to raise shore stations, although you can raise the Coast
Guard with its big towers. Must be that line of sight thing.

Well, in the everglades, maybe you need a CB.
