The wife has decided. The Triumph is out of the question now. She
and I
both liked the Scout better. We'll be moving to NC in about a year
and a
half, and this looks to be easily towable to various lakes and the
ocean.
Any comments?

The transom isn't open, but I'm hoping it will be pretty safe
anyway.

Nice boat. I like the proud sweep in the bow. I see a lot of boats in
that size and configuration/function that would look so much nicer
with a little sweep like that in the bow. The last 20 footer I lofted
out had a nice sweep like that..... Oh, and a motor well with the 18
inch bracket, 2 1/2 feet forward of the transom

I just really liked the looks of the Scout. And, I loved the way it
road.
We were only on the Potomac River, which was flat, but the boat handled
nicely.

If the wife is thinking of grandkids visiting on the boat. 18' is too
small. I have a 21' and figure it is good for only 6 people
comfortably.


Also..........no privacy area for a porta potty. I doubt his wife will
be joining him on the boat.


I do not carry a porta potty on the boat. Bucket works well.


I guess I have more consideration for my wife than to tell her to sit on a
bucket in the open to do her business.


And if you need #2. head to shore.


Not always possible or practical. I do not expect to tell folks on my
boat.........tough luck, just crap in your pants.

I thought you left coasters were the sensitve and caring type. I guess
not.


Well, we know you're a real winner, Jim. Sometimes a little prior planning
will work wonders.

When I had a porta potty in the boat, I gave the wife a choice. We could
leave it in, and it became her responsibility. Or we could take it out. It
came out quite soon, and was never put back in.

No, I've never had to tell someone to poop in their pants.

Your seamanship probably did that for them.

Have to admit John, that he actually stated something funny.

True, but his constant attack mode is a shame. He'd probably be a pretty
nice guy, if he's like most Canadians I've met.

There was a Canadian Army Brigade in Germany that I worked with every now
and then. Those guys were a blast. Of course, they weren't trying to keep
HK impressed.

I have always had the feeling Don was a nice guy, he is just lonely and
looks to Harry for attention and positive feedback.

That was his downfall. He picked the wrong "friend".
