Wanted: Boating Related Content, Let's Build a Topic List
Everyone here presumably has some interest in boats, boating, fishing,
water sports, etc. We need to hear more about it. Here's a possible starting list of topics for future posts: 1. What kind of boat(s) do you have or want to have? 2. What are its good or not so good qualities? 3. Where do you use, or want to use your boat? 4. What are some of the interesting places or features of that area? 5. How do you use, or want to use your boat? 6. Do you fish? If so what has been biting recently? Any future trips planned? What kind of bait/lures do you use? 7. Do you participate in any water sports like skiing, tubing, wake boarding, kite surfing, competitive sailing, etc. ? 8. Are you doing any maintenance or boat improvement projects? 9. Have you ever built a boat or are you thinking about it? 10. What kind of electronics do you have or would like to have for your boat? Any maintenance issues? 11. What kind of engines do you have, how many, horsepower, type, etc. ? Are they running OK? How much fuel do they use? 12. If you could improve just one thing about your boat, what would it be? I've probably just scratched the surface here in a few minutes time so feel free to contribute some suggestions and help grow the list. Let's see how many possible topics we can come up with. Just puting our heads together on creating a topic list should be an interesting excercise that we can all relate to. |

It's been tried before, but with **** in here like Krause, and his " cockhole " Donnie, that's impossible. |

Maybe it's because of posts like this one. Anyway Wayne. As you all know I am interested in building my own. My daughter has started to ask about building a river cruiser, maybe it's time to whip up those plans I was finishing before I moved up here. I had just run them by a Naval Architect friends' drawing board, he added one inch to the transom at chine two and I faired it into the rest of the hull, and it was ready to go... Then my dad called. I also have a planked Whaler clone type 20 footer that would make a great bass boat.. Might just build that one too. Right now we are consolidating and paying off a couple bills, then we are selling both homes and moving to the woods to do our own thing. For me, that may just be building boats again... |

Strip planked canoes were all the rage 10 to 15 years ago. The "rec.boats.building" group used to be full of posts from people who were building them or thinking about it. I once saw a nice one on top of a car up in Maine. |
