RV'ing what, 15 miles from your house? Why not just park the damned thing in your back yard, flame up the barbecue, and turn on the lawn sprinkler? That wouldn't be a bad idea for spring commissioning. We have, in the past, done just that. Now that we live in a livable area we can partake of whatever activity we like, year round. Except swimming, of course. How long is your boating season? |

That Johnny is quite the adventurer. You should talk. Dipped your boat in any big water lately? Oh that's right, your boat mfg or dealer said that your rig wasn't intended for salt water use. Something about galvanic corrosion and electrolysis. |

Several of us get together and do it at the same time. It's more an excuse for one last campout. I've got an air compressor and we'll all blow our lines out - then fill them with anti-freeze. Last year the dealer 'winterized' the rig as it was there for service. This spring we had a pipe leaking that burst because the dealer screwed up. |

Harry actually takes his imaginary trawler on an imaginary trip to Florida to winterize it. |

Don't think I have to justify my boat use to someone who hasn't seen real water since his 'Love Boat's cruises in the Wavy Navy back in the 60's. |

FlaJim isn't allowed near the water...he's subject to EPA fines if he dips one oily toe in it. Has he told you about his adult children? Now that is a giggle. -- Of life’s simple pleasures, few are more satisfying than being attacked by the right-wing trash in rec.boats. ![]() |
