If you are referring to me, you're, as usual, wrong. I'm merely clearing out some of the old for some of the new. I'm not a pack rat. I always sell my desktop computers after a year or two. As for boats, at least I would have a couple to sell, if I were so inclined. You are boatless. As a point of information, I am indeed looking at a new boat, and if I decide to go ahead, I would be selling the other boats, but for the canoe. I'm sure if you pooled your resources with some of the other "done nothing in life" types here, you'd have enough to buy a new rubber ducky, eh? You were doing so well up to your last sentence, where you completely disintegrated into a puddle of poo. Sad to see that happening. Ahhh...your Navy pension provides enough so that you could buy your own rubber ducky? Good for you. You're still in the poo puddle. Relax. Take a deep breath, and try again. |

On another note, I'm sure an experienced Iowa lake boater would have an easy time of it out on the Atlantic off the coast of Maine. For about five minutes. Then...they'd be searching for your body. What part of send some guys out on shares didn't you read, dip****. Lobster, or any other, commercial fishing is far too much work. Casady I hate to be the one that breaks this to you, but offshore lobstering isn't like offshore swordfishing. Most lobster fishermen own and run their own boats, or, if they own a small fleet, the other others are run by relatives or close friends. Further, these smaller commercial fishing craft sent out entirely on "shares" typically are owned by experience lobstermen. It's a bit out of the experience realm of an Iowa boater. Perhaps you should consider running for the governor's mansion in Alaska, where you apparently don't need to know anything. I'm not an expert on this, but aren't you letting your sentences run on a bit? Also your punctuation stinks. Yup, but he's an expert lobster man. Hell, he owns his own boat, right? He compares lobstering to swordfishing. Like comparing something to squeezing smelly pustules. He's expert at all of them. -- A Harry Krause truism: "It's not a *baby* kicking, beautiful bride, it's just a fetus!" [A Narcissistic Hypocrite] |

There was a rash of stolen northwest alumium jetboats this year. Scrap value of $4k |

Scrap value of $4k Interesting you mention that - it had been happening around here - aluminum boats stolen (if they were portable) and scrapped. Not so much anymore, but for a while there, even the aluminum canoes up at the Y camp were stored inside instead of just on the beach. |
