Hi,

I've been frequenting a wonderful fishing forum full of great local
folks, but I've been wishing for a similar board for boating. I've seen a
few "Canadian" forums, but they all seem centered around the east (as is
can.rec.boating). Is there a boating forum with a West-coast flavour?

If not, I'm thinking of setting one up. Anyone wanna join?

Sure, "Harry" - as soon as you move to Nanaimo (or at least can tell me
what a Squamish is!)

You don't have one of the best records when it comes to getting it up.
Many of us remember your twirl with The Boats of Rec.Boats and the early
pull out.

Good work, Psuedo. Right away with the personal remarks. That should go
a long way toward resolving your expressed concern that the group is so
far OT.

IMO, the remarks WERE on topic and accurate. His bailout of the
Rec.Boats photo site was abrupt and motivated by peak.

Nope. My pullout was motivated my many personal attacks and a lack of
interest in boating in my area. Hence, my interest in a west-coast forum.
I'm a West-coast Canadian - you couldn't hope to understand.

Come on - everybody knows what a Squamish is - it's a squished squash.

~~ sheesh ~~

I thought it was a squashed squid.

And THAT rules out virtually EVERYONE on this board, except Chuck.

I'd say that would get rid of all the childish name-calling and politics.

That quite an enemies list you have there Lloyd.

Not ememies. Just people who don't understand west-coast boating. When you
can tell me what a quallicum is (or who Todd Bertuzzi is), you'd be
welcome.

So, if the only member
of this forum that would be invited to attend your coronation is that
lying architect of personal destruction, Chucky. Why didn't you just
send him an email?

Because I was hoping I was wrong about the lack of West-Coast boaters. So
far, it looks like I'm right on.

BTW, why is it you have no comment about my factual

Nice to have your own little set of facts, Skippy. I'd like to visit your
Universe sometime - what's the required mizture of drugs?

observation that you
abandoned the Rec.Boats pitcher site out of peak and put very little
effort into it?

Answered in another post. Unlike you, I don't stay where I'm not wanted.

Oh, I do understand, pal. My comments about your abrupt abandonment of
the Rec.Boats site were spot on. As to comments about boating in your
area, I've initiated *many* posts about boating in the NW. Do you not
remember the Kodiak and Seattle trip reports?

So what sized outboard did you end up with for that inflatable, and did
performance meet your expectations?

Out of peak?

Peak?

Definitely not Skipper.

Maybe the real deal is vacationing on Pike's Pique. :-)

Instead of constantly playing this little game of yours, just call him and
put this crap to rest already Chuck.
