    durn cats, I had cat problems and tried everything to keep them away, mothballs, sticky paper, cat repellant powder, carpet tack strips and found the best solution was one of nature's own...coyotes.

    '90 C Dory 30 ft cat for $130k

    I've done some time on that boat, I wish I had the funds to buy it and park it on the river but I could afford the divorce lawyer. I don't have any pics of the interior, It has a bench seat down each side with a counter top/work area in the port,rear corner and a crapatorium on the starboard...

    How To Find Fishing Spots

    here's a handy tip....I used to mark waypoints on the chart plotter, don't use a felt pen, use something that is easy to clean off of the screen. If you're going to follow a charter boat, be respectful & keep your distance.........I get self guided boats following me & the buggers will pull...

    29 venture on Craigslist

    why and the hell would you want to get rid of S.T.D.s? I use S.T.D.s all the time in the summer. Damn sea lions make fishing impossible and you have to scare them off so I deploy my S.T.D (Sealion Thumping Device) a 10oz lead on a casting rod...it's fun and accurate..some folks get an odd...

    29 venture on Craigslist

    I hope that if I had to sell my toys in the hopes of funding retirement and had a bunch of guns, somebody would hide the guns from me. $160,000 aint going to fund much Mighty Mite- "semi humorous bent with a twist of paranoia" ? how just plain bent?

    Bow Protection

    Harvey, if was a retired millwright I'd go to cranking um out. I'll see if I can get one made this winter and go from there. My pictures aren't to good, the HD NT option looks a lot better in real life.

    Bow Protection

    Harvey, ya,the Nordhaven is a much classier boat. Sunbeam, thanks, glad you like it. I stuck that on years ago with the thought that it wouldn't last long and I would just replace it when the time came but it just keeps on sticking. How much of a pain would it be to polish stainless? I...

    Bow Protection

    I picked up a rubber step pad from Homey D with a self adhesive backing, cut it in strips and gave my bow the Nordic tug look. It's been protecting the bow and looking good for about 10 years now. Like Bob said, a nice piece of polished stainless epoxied on there would look real good too, cut...

    nissan titan

    the brochure for the new diesel titan has some pretty nice pics of a ranger tug. I wonder if the boat comes with every truck purchase? I would sure take a hard look at the nissan-cummins combo if I was looking for a new truck http://www.nissanusa.com/trucks/2016-ti ... 0_1023_Int

    Damn Roger, you're making me feel old. This is be nice on the internet day, stop cyber bullying me. 10 years, where do the years go? Concerning the goo I installed and painted over ten years ago- I still like it, it looks good, and it helps. What I like about it is that if you didn't know it...

    Windlass/Rode splice problem

    If a new and improved splice doesn't cure your problem you might fab up a pedestal to raise your windlass so the rode contacts the gypsy at point below the finger. On my set up, where the windlass sat and the way the bow and and the roller where angled, the rode was trying to lift the finger...

    I keep waiting for my fishing derby prize to show up...I mean....look at that pic ..that fish is huge.

    Damn Drool

    maybe if we painted the boats flat black. maybe if I build a flybridge out of old pallets. maybe I could get one of those decal wraps and make the boat look like a derelict brand X boat. naw It's just a burden we must bare We did catch a few fish this month, but, no white meat, I'm running low...
