Why is it that when a boat can go 60mph, the owner/drive thinks that he/she
has to go 60mph no matter how crowded the river is.

It's because when a person has an IQ of 60 they feel obliged to demonstrate
it all the time.

John,

You're referring, I believe, to the I-95 Richmond to DC Parking Lot?

My hard luck that while serving in the Army my assignments were either
OCONUS or DC. Depite frequent whines to my AO it always turned out that
way. I remember the commutes waaaay too well.

If I could have foreseen the future I'd have bought a home there to return
to and made a tidy profit upon retirement. Ultimately I cashed in all my
blue chips for a final assignment to South Alabama where we bought a home
and were able to build a little equity before retiring a couple of years
later.

The only thing I miss about the area is the Annapolis Power Boat Show and
the Smithsonian.

Not only that, they sometimes buy sailboats and play racing games in
East Passage of Narragansett Bay.

Yes, that is the parking lot to which I refer. What a mess.

I was an Engineer who had a secondary specialty in OR/SA. I should never have
allowed that to happen, but I did. Once I started my first job in that arena, I
could never get out, so I kept coming back to DC (which is where about 90% of
the OR/SA jobs are). I tried for over 25 years to get to Ft. Lewis, but the
closest I got was Los Angeles for a two year stint with the Reserves and
National Guard.

Real Name July 4th 05 10:54 PM

Harry,

You lie so badly you should really give it up. In this current lie you say
"most recently, though this was in the 1990's" , then two paragraphs down
you change it to "Last year an insurance industry acquaintance (can you
believe it..an insurance guy) took me for a spin in his superfast Fountain
something or
other, and told me when it was over that we had "hit" 90 mph. Hit was
the right word, too."

Your mind is becoming so feeble you can't not keep up with your lies from
one paragraph to the next.

"HarryKrause" wrote in message Though not
recently, I've had a few fast rides in fast boats in my
lifetime. Most recently, though this was in the 1990s, I got to
"passenger" in some pretty darned fast "bass boats" that friends owned and
invited me aboard for lake fishing in Florida. These were boats that were
capable of moving in the 70-80 mph range. Pretty scary rides, even in flat
calm water.

In the late 1950s, early 1960s, I don't recall the exact dates, my dad
handled a line of inboard boats that were powered by a pair of Caddy
Crusader engines. These were salt water runabouts that would break 60 mph.
Again, not too comfy at those speeds.

Last year an insurance industry acquaintance (can you believe it..an
insurance guy) took me for a spin in his superfast Fountain something or
other, and told me when it was over that we had "hit" 90 mph. Hit was the
right word, too.

Up to a point, a fast boat ride is fun, once in a while. That fun comes to
an end fast if you hit a substantial wave or wake. And the noise usually
is horrific. Once in the while on the Bay you'll see and hear some yahoo
doing 70 mph or more in one of those superfast boats. The noise really is
annoying.

Maybe it is my age. I'm more than comfortable enough running the Bay at
25-30 miles an hour, keeping my eyes open for hazards and the noise from
my boats' engines down to where conversation is possible.

We've all seen the comparison of dick size and speed. I wonder if there is
a point of absolute diminished returns...if your boat goes 100 mph, for
example, do you have any dick at all?

Whoops. That first sentence should have read "...a few fast AND scary

A few years ago, I was fishing with a buddy in a Hudson River BASS
tournament. At it happened, there was a "river poker run" going on at
the same time - all the boats were Scarabs, Fountains, etc., every one
capable of 100 mph plus and all running about that fast when they went
past us. We got tossed around pretty good.

We know because one of the Marine Patrol boats following them came
over to us and asked if we were ok and wanted to file a complaint.
The natural question was how come they can go so fast and the Patrol
commander said there wasn't a speed limit where we were, but there was
a wake ordinance and we would be doing them a favor if we complained.

We did.

Picking nits here, but the article said the boat was capable of 130km/h,
not that it was going that speed. Still, he was apparently going to fast

and invited me aboard for lake fishing in Florida. These were boats
that were capable of moving in the 70-80 mph range. Pretty scary
rides, even in flat calm water.

In the late 1950s, early 1960s, I don't recall the exact dates, my

dad
handled a line of inboard boats that were powered by a pair of Caddy
Crusader engines. These were salt water runabouts that would break

60
mph. Again, not too comfy at those speeds.

Last year an insurance industry acquaintance (can you believe it..an
insurance guy) took me for a spin in his superfast Fountain

something
or other, and told me when it was over that we had "hit" 90 mph. Hit
was the right word, too.

Up to a point, a fast boat ride is fun, once in a while. That fun
comes to an end fast if you hit a substantial wave or wake. And the
noise usually is horrific. Once in the while on the Bay you'll see

and
hear some yahoo doing 70 mph or more in one of those superfast

boats.
The noise really is annoying.

Maybe it is my age. I'm more than comfortable enough running the Bay
at 25-30 miles an hour, keeping my eyes open for hazards and the

noise
from my boats' engines down to where conversation is possible.

We've all seen the comparison of dick size and speed. I wonder if
there is a point of absolute diminished returns...if your boat goes
100 mph, for example, do you have any dick at all?


Whoops. That first sentence should have read "...a few fast AND scary
rides..." Last year's ride in the Fountain was fast, but not too

scary.
Probably because I was partially under the influence of margaritas.

It's frequently sad to observe anybody- liberal or conserative, who
believes the entire world can be reduced to a small group of absolute
stereotypes.

I wonder if a lot of these people aren't bitterly disappointed in the
end, when the world refuses to conform to their model? Heck, I'll bet
some of them are bitter and disappointed already.

(Learn to spell "throw". "Through" is obviously not a typo,-nobody
mistypes u,g,h instead of w- and it creates a certain
impression.......)

Ta-ta.

Learn to read, Smithers. He wasn't suggesting ANYTHING. He was asking a

Yes, but it has been a few years and I'd have to dig through some old
disks to find it.

I took a close look at a traditional tri-cabin layout, master stateroom
aft, and noticed, generally, that the Monk maintains most of the
advantages and lovable characteristics of the ubiquitous "Taiwan
trawler" while solving a number of
the most common problems. Better windows and deck hardware, much lower
maintenance exteriors, identifiable brand-name systems, better wiring
than some of the cheap-and dirty Taiwan boats used to feature. (Some
Taiwan boats are very nicely wired). As I recall, the Monk is built in
a community with a tradition of producing commercial fish boats- and
without re-checking specifically I believe it's in SE Canada. At the
time, every Monk built underwent final a Sea Trial as each boat needed
to be moved across some decent sized body of water to some port where
they could be loaded for truck transport.

If I were looking for a new, 36-foot trawler I would include the Monk
in the deliberations. I'm surprised the boat isn't more widely
available, but that may be due to limited factory capacity rather then
slack demand.
