Default Anybody on the water today?

Heading out in a hour or so to test a boat.

Should be fun - repowered 23' Hydrasports CC - bolstered stern with
twin 250 Verados. A lot of work done on this boat - came from
Mississippi after Katrina.

Haven't really wrung out a pair of Verados yet - should be fun. It
will be interesting to see how they compare to ETECs.

I'm going into this with an "open" mind.

True. More would be better. A little underpowered for some people.

Canadians don't have big boats or cars with big engines.

Right!

Most of us don't. The best selling car in Canada for a number of years has
been the Honda Civic

Don,
What would you do if you couldn't blame all of your misfortunes on
Americans?

Not on it, but in it. It's a trout stream day. If any of you can get here by
around 2:00 with a video camera, you can probably win yourself a bunch of
money from the America's Funniest Home Videos TV show. This is my annual
"how does this fly rod work again?" day. The fish are helpful. The stream's
got loads of trout, but they send their friends, the pike, to mess with
fishermen.
