Where do you keep the big boat? I don't recall ever seeing it.

Uh, Don, my Proline is 4' shorter and not near the boat Harry's Parker
is. Catching fish I can do on my boat, and a ride on a Parker I've
done before. Now, spending a whole day with Harry Krause in the middle
of the Bay, well that's another thought... However, on a big lobster
style boat there would probably be room for the two of us.

How about one of these for a fantasy boat?

Click on the photo and see the USCGC Resolute (WMEC-620) homeported in St.
Pete, FL.
==============================

Isn't there a version of the USCG 200 footers that has a pair of
turbine engines in addition to the diesels? I remember getting a tour
of one about that size or a little larger, and being told that the
turbines used so much fuel in "pursuit" mode, that they were budgeted
for only a few hours per month of running time.

Yes, the 378's have them. The WHEC's can definitely move on the ocean!

Click on the photo in the link. That is the USCGC Hamilton. I've been onboard
that Cutter so many times when it was homeported in Boston, MA. Ah, memories!

You know, I thought this BS thread had gone away with that idiot,
Skipper...... no... kept alive by K of Oz.... and now, resurrected

As long as he keeps mentioning it (as he did just recently), the fantasy
$300,000 custom made lobster boat remains fair game.

I am curious. Why do you find it necessary to defend him Gene?


A. I didn't mention it...it was brought up by Lloyd the kitbasher, and I
posted a response.
B. I have no idea where you got your pricing information.
C. You have no boat whatsoever, right, Dennis? Or brains, either.


The childish insult came at the end of a reply by Krause this time. A bit
of a change for you.

Try a little google search and you can (if you did not remove them) find
constant claims made by you of your $300,000 Custom Made Lobster Boat.

In the meantime, let me fill you in on a secret pal....I have been boating
on the Great Lake for 25 years.

Our 32 footer was recently sold. Why? My wife has a debilitating
neurological condition in her legs that made it more and more difficult for
her to get on and off the boat. This condition has worsened over the past
2 years and could be life threatening. She will be retiring for medical
reasons from her teaching job shortly because she is now falling down
constantly in the classroom.

So don't tell me about my lack of a boat right now pal. My wife comes
first. Something you may have a hard time understanding.

BTW: I probably have more boating experience behind me than you could ever
dream of with you imaginary boats.

I've never posted the price of the boat. Sorry.

Most people with any human emotion would have said "sorry about your wife".

But you, the purported epitome of a liberal who supposedly cares about
people, offers a crude reply.

Shame on you Harry Krause for being so cold and uncaring.

I was not asking for any sympathy. I just never figured you would offer
such a cold and insulting reply.

Since most of your posts are off topic, why do you can if someone who enjoys
boating, but doesn't have a boat comes to this NG. It seems that you live
for someone like Jim--, John, NYOB etc to comment on your off topic posts.
Without them, you would find somewhere else to play.

I was hoping Harry would crank up his creativity (at least use it for something
other than political rants and bashing others) and come up with some nice
stories about his "lobsta boat". He's posted a few about the Parker, but none
(that I've seen) about the "big" one. C'mon Harry, Farley Mowatt can do it...

I'd far rather read fictional boating stories than politics!

You're right. Responding to Harry's stuff is a waste of cyberspace.
