You should know the answer. Do you have one?

These off topic political posts don't belong in rec.boats. Are they made by
inexperienced boaters or those that think they own the waters and don't
give a damn about a fellow boater.

I, along with 99.9% of the readers of this group think this bunch should
find some other place to play. There are groups intended for that type of
discussion.

We come to this group to get away from politics, news, and work. We come
here to enjoy our hobby which is boating.

To those that think your political rants and raves and copy and pastes are
enjoyed by the vast majority of us, forget it. This is a boating newsgroup.

Get the picture? This political trash does not belong here. It is not
wanted. Go play somewhere else.

I'm curious where the poll is where you dug up that 99.9% statistic?
I'd like the chance to participate. Or is it simply a poll of one?

Evidently, most of our boats are not giving us much trouble or enough
pleasure that we've run out of things to say about them

Don't waste your time. The political banter in this group has grown
considerably since the election of 2000. Most of it is exchanged by
seasoned newsgroup regulars, most of whom are also avid boaters. There
have been a few people, like you, who have gone around complaining
about the political talk, and it has resulted almost 100% (how's that
for a statistic) of the time with the complainer leaving the group in
disgust while the political talk continues.

I take a hiatus from the political talk for a while to give it a rest.
Several others have pledged to do the same thing. But there are some
here who enjoy fanning the flames of controversy, and there is nothing
more polarizing and controversial right now than politics. It's just a
shame that many of can't seem to leave it go.

Really? That's a sweet ride, Doug. I saw one at a boat show, and watched
some Pilots being built at the factory in St. Augustine during a recent
trip to Florida. Get yourself a factory visit! If you do, I can
recommend some restaurants in the neighborhood.

One suggestion...make sure you have the bottom epoxy "painted" by a
professional crew (three coats at least) before you take delivery or
have the bottom painted.

Are you going for the "sedan" model?

Not sure yet about the sedan, although it seems like a good idea,
considering that I've already had a couple of pre-cancerous moles removed.
:-)

It is a sweet boat, isn't it? When I first saw it, it reminded me of my
father's first boat, a 32' Luhrs back in 1966 or so. So, I was surprised to
find that the companies were slightly related.

Slightly, eh? More than that. It is a very interesting company. If I
recall, it is employee-owned.

You know what really caught my eye? So many of the 28-32 ft boats I see
around have lines which make them look as if they'd been inflated with air.
All sorts of weird bulges in the cabin & cockpit. Too round. And this is
interesting: I've seen a few that actually have less room than my 14' Lund
for moving around and fishing. That's nuts. Meanwhile, the Mainship is
really clean looking and uncluttered.
