While I have done quiet a bit of boating in the Atlantic, I prefer not to discuss the details because all it does is stir up a lot of "oh yeah, I don't believe it". I have always found that those who spend all their time talking about their adventures (sexual or otherwise) probably have the fewest real adventures. Anyone who has ever read rec.boats will see that most claims made in rec.boats are challenged, so why bother. While I haven't made any claims, you are ready to jump on and talk about "talks a good fight... but would scamper back to a nice shrinking, shallow lake". I am not that bored to get into that silly discussion. |

There's something very special about them .... I think they know us. Eisboch Just about every time we went a half mile offshore in Jax, we saw dolphins playing with boats. Our boat, everybody's boat. Dolphins are great pals to have out there in the ocean. We see them in the bay but only once in a while. To those of us "up north" that rarely see a dophin playing alongside the boat, it was quite a thrill. I think we picked them up off of the Carolinas, and they were ever present all the way to south Florida. I have a great video, taken by my brother, of our night in Titusville that captures a bunch of dophins playing with some guy's dog in the water at the marina. Eisboch Eisboch |

No, I think you got that wrong. While I have done quiet a bit of boating in the Atlantic, I prefer not to discuss the details because all it does is stir up a lot of "oh yeah, I don't believe it". But you don't mind discussing and often disparaging the details of others. Pot, kettle, black.... How's the fuel consumption on the 36' Zimmerman like Lobsta' boat? |
