You said there is not a single car made without Chinese parts.
How
about those not manufactured by the Big 3?


You'll have to go see for yourself, but I doubt it. Why would any
manufacturer build xwidgets in country x when the Chinese will
deliver xwidgets to them for $1.80 instead of $4.25?


Hint - They're not in business to give Americans jobs.

You made the claim. Prove it.

I think we suggested it was probably the case, could be wrong but from
my point of view, probably not, probably the other guy too, just based
on experience in my case but I wouldn't swear to it or even bet on
it...

JimH,

Do you know how to Google? If you want to know the "secret" about how
to use Google, let me know.

Also, if you want to know the "secret" as to how to easily dock your
boat stern first, let me know. It really is easy and makes it much
easier for your passengers to get in and out of the boat.

Spring lines?


I normally thing of using Spring lines when you are docking with the
pier on the side of the boat. I am talking about backing the boat into
a slip. With a single engine boat, the torque of the prop will cause
the boat to want to turn to the side, making it difficult for the new
boater to easily back the boat into the slip. There is a very "secret
method" that all true boaters know.

I guess JimH doesn't want to know how to easily back his boat into the slip.

What an amazing secret he discovered....................





I don't know why he's trying to make a big deal out of backing up a
boat. Some single-engine boats back up easily, some don't. You learn
what your boat can do and make the mental adjustments.

My new boat has a bit more "bow steer" than I am used to on single
engine boats. I fiddled around with engine angle, trim tab settings, et
cetera, until I found a happy medium. I'm sure our boy Reggie, the
"experienced" boater who has found the reverse slot on his imaginary
boat's controls, has a better answer.
