Tall tales of the sea.
ROFL! Can't remember when I laughed so hard! Thanks Harry.

To wit: I'm sponsoring a contest for rec.boats participants. The rules are simple The rules: 1 - There must be a minimum of fifteen participants in the Tall Tale contest for the prizes to be put into effect. 2 - The Tall Tale must be fiction or at the very least, told in the fashion of sitting around the bar going somebody one better. 3 - The Tall Tale must involve boating, cruising or fishing or a combination of those subjects. 4 - The Tall Tale must be sent to me via email - I will publicly acknowledge who has sent a tale here on rec.boats and repost it to rec.boats. 5 - I will ask for a panel of non-participants in this contest to judge the entries. The Prizes: First Place - $75 Second Place - $25. Third Place - haven't figured that out yet. So, before sending me your entries, what do you folks think - good idea? Have you heard the one about the Sudden Onset Tostito? Man, those waves were enormous. There we were, in our 22' Bayliner, with no warning, when the sky suddenly turned dark and stormy, and we were facing 30' waves... No email yet, BTW. |

Boaterdude, are you aware that the original author of this "sea tale" claims that it's a 100% true story? Eisboch |

Tall tales of the sea.
Eisboch,
I've been with this group off and on for a few years, but under a different name (honestly can't remember what I used to use before I moved a couple years back). Yes, I remember Skipper, and the love/hate relationship with Harry. But I do NOT remember this story. It's hilarious! -Jim Eisboch wrote: "Boaterdude" wrote in message ... ROFL!

I think your reference to Skipper's and Harry's "love/hate" relationship is also hilarious. I am sure Harry will appreciate it. Eisboch |
