Indeed. Short overnight vacation on a boat, sure. Living on a small
floating RV, as you do? Naw. Too confining, and not even as comfortable
as a good rock'n'roller's tour bus. About the same length, too.

It's about 220 miles from my house to the OBX, D'wine. About a six hour
drive pulling my tandem trailer, including food and rest stops. Or three
days on your creaky old floating RV, if the weather sucks.


Albemarle Sound should be beautiful this summer. Waves may get up to 6", so
be careful. Sounds like you'll have a great time getting there also. Should
be a serene peaceful journey down I-95.

We have had 3 wonderful vacations on the Outer Banks, most recently in a 3
level, 5 bedroom house on the ocean with my sisters family. *The house had a
pool, hot tub and game room.

Mornings were spent with a cup of coffee watching the dolphins swimming
parallel to the beach.

Nice place, but a bit expensive.

Yeah, we rent a house with another couple. No need for that many
bedrooms,

No need for "that many" bedrooms? That makes no sense, do you all
usually have seperate ones or something?.. no wonder you are always on
the rag.

"Yeah man, were cool.. we didn't need bedrooms or even bathrooms, we
were too busy out doing stuff man.. yeah, we did everything man...."

though. There's lots of stuff to do there, some boat-related,
some not. It's a pretty easy drive from here. South Florida is too

Think it through, genius. We rent a house with another couple. Two
couples, two bedrooms. Jim goes there with lots of other people, and his
troupe needs lots more bedrooms.

Do you hire someone to measure the plywood you cut for your boats?

Pftttttt. and you have never built a boat so you wouldn't know
but quite frankly a measuring stick of any given length is more
important than a ruler when building a boat. Unless it's just extruded
plastic, think about that one...

bedrooms,
though. There's lots of stuff to do there, some boat-related, some not.

It's a pretty easy drive from here. South Florida is too damned hot for
summertime fun.
With our latest vacation on OBX we had 12 people in the house (14 for one
night with friends visiting)........only 4 of which were adults.
Thankfully each bedroom had it's own full bath, with a powder room off the
main floor (2nd) family room/dining room/kitchen.

When on vacation I like to indulge.- Hide quoted text -

I only keep boats a few years, nosepicker. Typically, I sell them
privately just before the engine warranty expires. My 25' Parker was a
2003. Sold it in 2007. That's four years. Another reason was that the
25-footer was a handful at the launch ramp, since it weighed about 7000
pounds. My new Parker is much much easier to launch and retrieve,
especially single-handedly.
