Damn, I can't figure out which boat I want. Now if the Grand Banks
only had a stripe on it, it would be so easy.


I couldn't find the stripe either, and the transom looks entirely too
seaworthy.



Hey, if you like barges, yours is one of the ones to get. Me, I'd rather
stay in a good hotel.


Harry,
It sounds like you don't enjoy boating, you enjoy going out for a 30-45
min. "fishing trip" every few months.

Wayne,
I was wondering about your transom. Since you don't have a big hole in
your transom, if a big way comes over the front of your boat, won't you
sink like a rock?

PS - If that woman on the front of your boat is your wife, you will
really have Harry jealous.

Uh...there's more freeboard on my parker than on the correspondingly
sized Grady CC, even the 22-foot Grady. What the Gradys have is a
transition, or dip, in the gunnels as they move towards the aft end of
the boat, and therefore a more interesting shearline. I believe it is
called a Palm Beach shearline, or something similar.

Up forward, I have more freeboard, and in the stern I also have more
freeboard. I'll have to measure it with a tape, but my Parker dealer
also sells Gradys, and I looked at a couple of them before making my
choice.


Harry Krause,
I meant to ask you, if the Parker is as close to perfect as a boat can
be, why would anyone want to bring along aluminum folding chairs?

The aluminum chairs work together with the aluminum hats to keep the
governments GPS signals from take control of you. Everybody knows that
GPS satellites have dual purposes.

I carry a chain saw for emergencies like that. It can immediately cut
a large hole anywhere to let the water out. It's something they teach
in damage control school.

I like the looks of the smaller, older GB trawlers, but not the larger
ones. The larger ones look like slabsided barges to me. Sorry.

If I were buying a trawlerRV, I'd want something a bit more "shippy"
looking, at least to my taste, than a big GB.


So you don't have a lobster boat? Really?

First of all, I like them - they are interesting. Secondly, BAR is a
former Marine and as such, a brother-in-arms. Third, and probably
something you wouldn't understand, I generally enjoy conversing with
everybody here.

I honestly don't care how they get along with anybody else. I like to
think of myself as the universal conversationalist. :)

See, that's a nice shot. I never suggested changing any part of the
wet side of the hull, just a little curve to the shear, and tail,
that's all..Wouldn't take much, certainly could be done without
changing the fit and function at all. Anyway, don't get me wrong, one
of the things I noticed about those Parkers was how nice they seemed
to be moving in the water and how perfect of a single handed, or two
handed fishing boat it is. The four was real quiet too. They came in
not 100 yards from each other and headed for the same marina, do not
know if they were fishing together or not.
The boat is big enough in the front. If you drop the shearline, you
decrease the height of the gunnels off the deck. When you do that, you
make it more possible for ugly things to happen in terms of water coming
aboard or people falling off. This is much less of a problem, of course,
on larger boats.- Hide quoted text -

I soaked the blue meat from the bluefish in some orange juice for a
couple of hours. Cut it into popper size chunks and dipped it in a
little egg, spices, and some Sylvias fish batter and fried them in a
little oil. We were all pleasantly surprised. Even me, who generally
does not like bluefish, I could not stop eating them, little
feeeeessshie poppers. The spices were basil, thyme, cayanne pepper,
salt and black pepper.

called a Palm Beach shearline, or something similar.

Up forward, I have more freeboard, and in the stern I also have more
freeboard. I'll have to measure it with a tape, but my Parker dealer
also sells Gradys, and I looked at a couple of them before making my
choice.
Harry Krause,
I meant to ask you, if the Parker is as close to perfect as a boat can
be, why would anyone want to bring along aluminum folding chairs?
The aluminum chairs work together with the aluminum hats to keep the
governments GPS signals from take control of you. Everybody knows that
GPS satellites have dual purposes.


You know, I've often wondered about those "noises" I hear every once
in a while - you know - high speed data streams?

Do you really think the aluminum hat would help? How about I if I
used a stainless steel mixing bowl?


That is your problem, the stainless steel mixing bowl, you need to be
using an aluminum colander with the curved feet on the bottom.


What about the holes?

It's always about the holes.

A better question: why is Reggie Retardo always addressing questions to
me? Is he hopeful I will respond to him? He will always get the same
response I give to a pile of dog**** on the sidewalk: I step over it,
never in it.

Leave, leave? Oh, that's right I forgot about the transmitter attached
to the central nervous system and inserted using the infamous "anal probe."


See - I told you - it's all about the holes. :)

Speaking of which, curiously enough, I have been approached by my two
specialist doctors by have a RFID chip inserted as an experiment.

I'm seriously thinking of having it done. It's about the size of a
grain of rice, you don't notice it's there and from what I've been
able to understand, data secure to only the two hospitals I visit for
my treatments. Both of my dogs have them for ID purposes and it makes
the vet visits a lot faster.

And the other advantage is that I don't have to check in or anything -
just wave it at the scanner and that's that - right into the infusion
suite. As I understand it, it scans when I enter the hospital, the
data is transmitted to the nurses station, the check-in is done and by
the time I get to the floor, my meds are waiting and all they have to
do is vital signs. I've been told that eventually, it will be able to
work with a scale and BP machine so I can do my weight check (because
my meds are measured by weight) and BP check at home, put the data on
the chip and the chip monitors pulse and temp.

Sounds cool man.

Tom,
This is normally used for patients with Alzheimer's. Is there something
you want to tell us?

By the way this has been linked to cancer.

How are they going to read your mind if it doesn't leave as easy as it
gets in. Why do you think the space craft seem to hover around CT and
the LI Sound?


It's because my base of operations is in CT and LIS you dumbass.

You think I'm kidding? I have 300 acres guarded by a fully sentient
Model XVII Bolo named "Fluffy". And all the air and space craft are
housed in a special underwater hanger located somewhere near Race
Rock. You will never find it because I have 30th Century stealth
technology - the hanger, if you ever found it, looks like a small rock
- about six feet across and eight feet high. Inside, it's over 12,000
acres.

Space/time folding is a wonderful thing. :)

It does sound cool but, I've heard about some problems with animals
developing cancer from the implanted devices. The manufacturer stands by
the FDA's approval that the devices are safe.

I think I'll wait for the sequel.

And, the last conference I attended for work had RFIDs affixed to your
conference badge and the had RFID readers at the doors to each of the
meeting rooms. Talk about getting you coming and going!

I can eat pizza with both hands.

Nice light homemade tomato sauce - five blend cheese topping with

I soaked the blue meat from the bluefish in some orange juice for a
couple of hours. Cut it into popper size chunks and dipped it in a
little egg, spices, and some Sylvias fish batter and fried them in a
little oil. We were all pleasantly surprised. Even me, who generally
does not like bluefish, I could not stop eating them, little
feeeeessshie poppers. The spices were basil, thyme, cayanne pepper,
salt and black pepper.

Hey Tom, high tide around noon on thursday?


Just got back from Tahoe and a lot of boating. Dentist appointment mid
afternoon. Fried up some nice albacore loin from the freezer. Last trip to
San Diego bounty. A new brand of batter. Pescado Pete's wharf style mix.
Good stuff. No boating for a while planned. Class at the local JC
tomorrow. Then a visit to a buddy who has only 2-3 weeks left. Found out on
the weekend, that he has pancreatic cancer and liver cancer. Sucks. He had
not been feeling well for a few weeks. Trying to schedule the neighborhood
kids for a fishing trip before the weather changes. Have to work around
sports for at least 2 of them.
