Default Would a front rudder help steer the thing?

Any Ideas?


Woo Hoo, my first real contribution opportunity since I came back!

I was researching this manufacturer for a bow thruster for 50' monohull
houseboat I'm currently re-powering and I came across one of their
products designed as a bow thruster for pontoons - it's kind of like an
bow mounted trolling motor except that it mounts on the underside of the
deck. Obviously not something you'd drop into the water at any great
speed, but great for maneuvering in tight quarters.

I'm rusty at this - should I end with a flame under the new newsgroup
rules? Is there a probation period before I can declare omnipotence? ;-)


If you want to fit in with the right crowd, you should , at least, call
someone an asshole, and then say you've got them 'filtered'!

Tim - I think you need one of those. You can tell your wife I said so.

But gives me some ideas for the future, though.

Maybe JohnH can put on a fundraiser to help defray the high expense.
It's the least he can do after all you've sent him.

The three Hazeltones, all in a row. You've gotta love such neat guys! Dave,
if you're listening, this is the crowd to get on good terms with. They're a
great group of folks! Donnie, Jimmie, and Harrie! You go boys!

Johnny Appleseed it is! He seems to have given up all pretensions of being
an unbiased, fair sheriff.

Not a bad idea. Have you planted your tree yet? Only $25, and you can do it
in memory of Jimmy!
