Harry, your ego wouldn't allow you to killfile *anyone* who might mention
what a neat guy you are!

Jimmy (if you're reading responses to Harry) I strongly believe that,
unlike you and Don (and any other Harry puppy dogs), Reggie can think for
himself!

John... your behavior here is odd for someone who talks about 'improving the
newsgroup'.
A casual reader might assume that you're just as bad as the rest of us.
As Dr. Phil might say..."it's time for a hero to step up".
Looks like the current crop of law enforcers are either unwilling or unable
to be that 'hero'.
Carry on!

For us, $1,525. Drive up dock, 25 foot floater with water, electric

top notch mechanics. The owners (3rd generation) live on site.

We moved to this marina because of our bad experiences with the dufus

So how about you?


That's about the price, give or take, for a similar sized slip at the
local fisherman's marina. No pool or clubhouse, but a nice, smelly fish
cleaning station, general store, clean bathrooms, running water and
electric.

You cannot imagine what the fish cleaning station smells like in July
and August. Well, maybe you can!


Is Jimmy asking his silly questions again? What won't that boy do for
recognition and self esteem?

Why do you incite people, John?

Wow, John is still at it? Well folks are hopefully seeing his only
purpose here.

Herring is an a**hole. There's not much more to add to that. It's why he
lives in my bozo bin.

Thanks, Harry! You are such a neat guy!

Sheesh.



Looks like he has given up all interest in boating.
That's fine... but why stay around and harrass legitimate boaters?
There must be a golf newsgroup somewhere that needs cleaning up.

He doesn't have the balls for that, and everyone in the locker room
would notice that the shaft on his club was way too short.

Harry, you and Don are *both* neat guys!

10-4 on that Bass. Keep it simple and don't buy everything the kid at
the pool store sells.
I use enough tri-chlor to maintain a reasonable stabylizer level (that
10-20 you spealk of) and bleach to maintain the chlorine level. I end
up with a shot of acid now and then to hold the pH. That keeps my pool
sparkling.

I hear tell of people having to use acid to hold pH. Here in GA, my
water is just the opposite, you need to raise pH. Instead of using pH
Up, use 20 mule team borax, right out of the grocery store for about
10% of the price!. Raise alkalinity with baking soda, the same exact
thing the pool store sells you for three times as much. I use plain old
bleach to both keep my chlorine level up to the range specified by the
amount of stabilizer, and to shock. Here is a website that has that
information, you'll like it, this guy is a pool brain!

http://www.poolsolutions.com

and here is a forum of people who use his methods:
http://www.poolforum.com

If you go in the forums, someone has even written a small program
called bleach calc, you just plug in the capacity of your pool in
gallons, if you are using 5% or 6% (ultra) bleach, and it will tell you
the amount of bleach to add to get to x ppm. It also has calcs for
adjusting pH, Alk, and stabilizer. I only use pucks if I go on vacation
or something, so I have to add stabilizer once in awhile.
This guy also debunks a lot of pool store myths. I laugh at the
beginning of the season when I go to the pool store to watch those guys
load everybody up with a couple hundred bucks worth of pretty much
worthless crap, and I get to smallest package of pucks I can get!
Anyway, check these guys out!


Swimming pool chlorine and household bleach are both Sodium Hypochlorite.
Just calculate which is cheaper to buy. The pool chlorine is 2-3 times the
strength of normal bleach. And Ultra Clorox is about 1/3 stronger than
standard bleach.

What kind of suntan lotion does everyone keep on board their boat? do
you prefer oil or lotion? How much do you normally use in a season?

I try to keep on of each on board, so I have one of each. I buy the big
bottle of generic lotion and one bottle will last the season.

What is everyone's else favorite?


Congratulations! I think this is the first semi-boating related topic
you've posted on in months.
Keep up the good work.

When was yours, Don?

You wouldn't recognize or be interested in a boating post anyway...why
bother asking?



A simple answer from a simple man.

The last time I looked at the packaged pool chlorine it worked out to
the same price as no name laundry bleach but we can buy pool chlorine
from the pool store in bulk for less than half of what the packaged
product costs. There is also the problem that all of this tends to
deteriorate over time so that 10% chlorine in the Jug at Home Depot
may only be 8 or 9% if it has a lot of dust on the bottle. My pool
store turns over several hundred gallons a week so it is always
fresh..
I get my liquid at the pool store. Since this is California the bleach
costs extra cause it is a chemical. Normal clorination is via tablets.
Every couple of years I dump part of the pool and add fresh water to lower
the stabilizer levels. Works for me. And with the solar heater, I do run a
comfortable pool in the summer time.
