LOL, Harry you sure seem to be hung up on this transom thing.
You noticed that also. Methinks he is a mite sensitive perhaps.

You might think that. I tend to think that Harry just enjoys kicking
ass. Pretty funny seeing him tossing around a ten-man tag team
by his lonesome.

Vic,
I hope you know that no one ever wins an newsgroup arguement. I used
this as a great boating discussion. Harry is the one who got so upset
and started calling everyone assholes. It reminds me of someone saying
a postal worker was kicking ass when he goes postal.

It's always been obvious to me that most *losers* don't know they've
lost a newsgroup argument, but it's in the eye of the beholder for
sure. I gave you this beholder's opinion.
And it's obvious to anybody who frequents this group that there are
posters who are here for one purpose - to climb into the ring with
Harry. If it leads to a good boating discussion, fine and dandy. But
they come here looking to brawl. This brawl does have some useful
boat info, and entertainment value. And sometimes Harry loses IMO,
but he hasn't so far in this fracas.
Postal worker? Harry reminds me more of Killer Kowalski than a
mailman.

Vic,
Harry knows everything about boating, so our comments are not directed
towards him. If you have been around long enough, you will see he
spends every weekend and weekday logged onto rec.boats. When he goes to
sell this boat in a few years, you will see it has very very few hours
on the engine meter. But if you also noticed, those regulars who
actually use their boats and boat in salt water, no of them, would have
picked a boat with an open transom. So this discussion of open transom
vs. brackets or engine well is really designed for those people who
don't know everything yet, but might be interested in buying a CC to
actually use.

I find any discussion that actually involves a boating topic to be far
superior to one that involves cut and pasting a political argument into
a boating NG, just so one can call other assholes. So in that respect,
I would have to say the NG is the winner, and there are no losers.
