Clive Cussler novel.
 
Just finished a fun novel by Clive Cussler. Our hero, Dirk PItt, used
a 25 ft. Parker w/ 275 Yamaha OB as a salvage vessel on Lake Michigan.
Sound familiar??

Happy boating

: Indeed...which novel?

'Flood Tide' pub 1977
:
: And are you sure it was a 275 Yamaha? Or is Cussler confused?

Pg 501 -

"The boat, a twenty-five-foot Parker with a cabin, was powered by a 250
Yamaha outboard....."

BTW - the boats name... "Divercity"

billie, cussler has made a lot of money writing totally off the wall stories
for little boys who fancy themselves heros for a long time.

Wasn't it cussler who wrote about the jet airliner traveling at the incredible

Yes and he also wrote about raising the Titanic and Viking ships in
Lake Tahoe and a host of other improbably tall tales.

The simple truth is that it's entertainment - suspend your belief and
have some fun.

No worries, hey mate? )

Yup, I admit I like to read comic books. At least years ago. If I still
had those books that cost 10 cents, I could buy a couple of Lobsta boats. I
guess you do not like Batman, and Spiderman movies, or books. Or most any
other movie out there. And Jet airliners can travel at 175 knots. They do
it every day they fly. I read all kinds of books. Maybe you ought to try
it. And I am even getting a Gameboy Advance to kill time on long airplane
trips. So I even like kid games. Growing old is not an option, growing up
is.

Since a knot is defined as "one nautical mile per hour," I guess you
are trying to express some form of acceleration in "knots per hour."

But then, in Jaxworld, everything is a bit different, isn't it?

Sheesh, that's what you get for not bringing a boat with you. If you
get too bored with all this fine weather, drive over to Cape Coral and
I'll let you practice on my brightwork. Mrs E's GB will need a LOT of

I figure I'll learn by studying your fine example. The only nice thing
about wrapping it up for the winter is that you don't have to look at it
again until spring. Actually, Mrs. E. is still up north, wrapping up her
"purchase" and enjoying the beginning of the holiday season with the kids
and grandkids. I got bored and decided to drive the landyacht down to
Jupiter by myself and then fly back for Christmas, only to return again
shortly thereafter. I made the big mistake of trying to drive via the
Chesapeake Bay Bridge/Tunnel. After 12 hours getting there, they wouldn't
let me cross due to high winds.

Got to Jupiter today at 1 pm. I forgot how nice it is here in the winter.

Nothing like hopping on the Harley at 8am in a tee shirt in December.
It gets cool at night - air conditioners get a rest for a few months. Days
are typically in the mid 70's throughout Dec, Jan, and Feb. with no
humidity. By the second or third week in March, it starts to get warmer with
slowly increasing humidity.

It was interesting driving down I-95 and seeing some of the remaining
effects of the hurricanes.
Many trees along the road are still bent at a 45 degree angle and many, many
homes with blue tarp roofs.

Bill,

I agree he's dumb as dirt, but a "knot" is not referred to as "per
hour" & kph usually refers to kilometers per hour most everywhere that
is metric which is most everywhere except the US.

A knot is special in the sense it's a measure of time combined with
distance in itself (when a board is thrown astern with an attached rope,
so many knots 47.25ft apart, passed in 28 seconds) or 0.5144444 m/s or
1.688888 f/s or 1.853 kph or it's a minute of latitude on the earth's
surface traveled in one hour.

It's true @ 1 knot you will have traveled 6080ft or 1 nautical mile in
an hour & then you could express that as a speed of 1 nautical mile per
hour or 1 knot, never 1 knot per hour:-)

Thanks, but it's premature for commiserations. The 14+ year old "pup" is
still alive and kicking, which is another reason for our temporary
independent travel plans. The day is coming very soon, but Mrs. E. can't
bear to part with him until he begins to suffer.

She has three of these Westie dogs, two males and one female. The female
(Molly) is 3 years old and is a hoot. The two males, (Major and Minor) are
both old timers at 14 years, but still act like puppies most of the time.
Major (the sick one) is the alpha and Minor, who I swear is retarded, is
emotionally attached to Major big time. We decided that I should take Minor
with me on this trip so it won't be a big shock to his emotional well-being
when the day comes that Major bites the dust. So, Minor is with me and has
decided that I am his new best friend. He is also the one that jumped up on
the doorsill of the landyacht last year while I was pumping gas. His paw hit
the electric lock button and locked me out of the RV with the keys inside,
with a line of cars behind me waiting to get gas.

He knows what it's like to have a near-death experience.

Michigan.

Sound familiar??

Nope. Nothing Cussler writes sounds familiar to anything real.

More real than your writing. And a lot more fun to read.


billie, cussler has made a lot of money writing totally off the wall

stories

for little boys who fancy themselves heros for a long time.

Wasn't it cussler who wrote about the jet airliner traveling at the

incredible

speed of 175 knots per hour?

Ouch, bad luck. Really bad luck, would have been a ticket from the ASPCA.
There are laws about locking pets in hot cars. ;-)

Only near-death? You are clearly a patient man.

And are you sure it was a 275 Yamaha? Or is Cussler confused?
Pg 501 -
"The boat, a twenty-five-foot Parker with a cabin, was powered by a 250
Yamaha outboard....."
BTW - the boats name... "Divercity"

I stand corrected on the engine HP. I thought it might be wrong, but
didn't go back to double check.

I agree that his novels border on sci-fi, but they're fun to read. I
doubt that the SS United States could travel at 50 MPH up the

Why don't you go to your local community college and take a few intro

It is bad enough to have to sort through your mostly incoherent

Thanks, but it's premature for commiserations. The 14+ year old "pup" is
still alive and kicking, which is another reason for our temporary
independent travel plans. The day is coming very soon, but Mrs. E. can't
bear to part with him until he begins to suffer.


Sorry I misunderstood, thought you weren't going till ..... but hey
that's great news.

She has three of these Westie dogs, two males and one female. The female
(Molly) is 3 years old and is a hoot. The two males, (Major and Minor) are
both old timers at 14 years, but still act like puppies most of the time.
Major (the sick one) is the alpha and Minor, who I swear is retarded, is
emotionally attached to Major big time. We decided that I should take Minor
with me on this trip so it won't be a big shock to his emotional well-being
when the day comes that Major bites the dust. So, Minor is with me and has
decided that I am his new best friend. He is also the one that jumped up on
the doorsill of the landyacht last year while I was pumping gas. His paw hit
the electric lock button and locked me out of the RV with the keys inside,
with a line of cars behind me waiting to get gas.


Love it!!! a minor problem really & I suppose he was totally
entertained by all the fuss:-)

He knows what it's like to have a near-death experience.


I bet you didn't!!! I bet you were just as amused as he was:-) as were
"some" in the line.

Glad Major is still the major dog. You know that while you're there Mrs
E is regularly visiting her GB don't you, just to sit & look at it; I
would be too:-)

westcoast nutter, you asked how I got so stupid. First off I didn't join any
chicken**** outfit such as the af. Second, I did join Mensa as a young man,
figuring I might get my hands on a belly dancer by the name of Moracco who
spoke seven languages. Third, I never spent time in the cereal bowl
(everything that ain't fruits and nuts is roughage) sf.

btw, when I did meet the beautifu belly dancer I found I really did not like
her. I spent less than sixty seconds with her before I turned and walked away,
seven languages or not.
