I thought it was a great graphic, well thought, well done for what it
is. Actually from a continuity (sp?) pov, it fit right in with the
simple lines of the parker. A more elaborate logo would seem out of
place... just my opinion.


It's just a gag. Just about everyone who sees it grins, and that's fine
with me. I don't take boat names seriously.

Well, if you've been somewhere, D'whine, it must be bullsh*t, or at
least covered in it, eh?
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.
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,
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.
Tow Tow Tow your boat merrily down the interstate. This is bringing tears to
my eyes. Harry dragging his widdle boat behind his Toyoater for SIX hours.
Oh, the grief he use to give Skipper for doing the exact same thing.
Somebody link this post over to Skipper. It'll make his day.- Hide quoted text -

But Harry just said it to **** someone off, it's not like he meant it


If Skipper towed his boat six hours from Wichita, he'd still be a half
day away from the ocean.

I can drive son of Yo Ho from here to the ocean on her own bottom on a
relatively calm day in about three hours at 35 mph. It's about 100 miles
on the water. That's shooting down the Bay to the CBBT area. I did it a
couple of times in the old Yo Ho. It's a pretty dull run, though. You
get in the middle of the Bay, head sort of south, and avoid being run
over by freighters.

It's just easier to tow a boat to the Outer Banks, if you can. No real
weather concerns, a lot more comfortable, and a fairly easy drive.

It's ok...I've been immunized.

My mother was a lifelong Republican, but a Yankee Republican, moderate
politically. But she didn't vote for Reagan either time. She did vote
for George H. W. Bush, which I could understand. The current evangelical
dominated GOP would have made her switch parties.

Hmm, you whine about Wayne being able to take off in his boat and
vacation at will, saying that he must need to get out of that
"hellhole". Why would you want to vacation away from that wonderful
resort town of Cleveland, Ohio. How's the boating there today?
Have you succeeded yet in your obvious goal of picking a fight with

I guess I could get financially strapped, sell my boat, save for years
then buy a smaller, well used boat that will break down the first
season I try to use it.

That's exactly what you posted, Sally. Save your pennies and buy a new
boat.

Isn't that what you are doing?
No. I now have two boats. You don't remember the sailboat I just
bought a couple of months ago? I actually showed pictures of it, it's
not a Lobster boat, it really exists!
I don't finance personal toys or "assets" that depreciate. Paid cash for
my first Parker, used some of the proceeds to pay cash for the second..-

Why did you downsize, Harry Trump?
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.
Now that I added to your knowledge base, please add to mine:
Why are you such an obstreperous a**hole?
Must be from all that pot he smokes and beer he drinks.
