Some time this year, we taxpayers will receive an Economic Stimulus payment. This is a very exciting new program. I will explain it using the Q and A format: Q. What is an Economic Stimulus payment? A. It is money that the federal government will send to taxpayers...

Phil, Yer kiddin us right? I think someone who secretly really likes you put some northern MN or WI or MI maple syrup in your tank. Try it on some blueberry pancakes! I bet it'll be awesome. Capt Dan

Jack, I can't answer your questions but can say that I have the same thing going on with my 2006 40's. I'll bet that the brats will know though and will share with us. I been gonna get a spray can of touch up paint but have not gotten around to it yet. Dan

You guys need an album. You sound like fun folks. Capt Dan

O.K. Marc, We'll be there fer shure. It'll be our first attendance @ a CB gathering and we are excited about it. Most likely we'll trailer over from OB. We also plan to dock at John's place and sleep on the boat. Is there something we need to do to secure that? Also, where can we launch and...

Pete, I think the link Jim gave you is a good one. If that doesn't work, you can buy a new Mobella lock with new keys. On an earlier lock thread I posted the site that sells them. http://www.fpmarine.com/Latches%20Locks ... tm#Mobella My boat is an 06 and it has the same # as Jack's...

Gene, Could the unit you have be attached to the VHF radio antenna to get it higher up in the air or would they not get along together?

Thanks Pat for putting out the query. I will be monitoring the results with interest. It would be very cool to put something like this on our laptop, and have a dramatic increase in available internet while on the boat. Dan

Thanks Marc, We are about 99% positive we will be there. We'll be traveling from MN to Gulf Shores/Orange Beach and plan to arrive Oct 1 or so. Not sure if we'll trailer over or take the boat. We'll check with Bob, Roger and Rick to see if they are going and how they will go. We are really...

Interesting vessel, I had not known of it. Thanks Dbillitto, for bringing the boat our attention. I think we'll retain our 22 cruiser, though. Dan

I like Toms idea too, sept as Roger says the false alarms that originated from happy, contented, inebriated brats that were totaly safe and forgot to report back would make it cumbersome. Maybe even stressful for some. We are headed out on Lake Superior for 3-5 days next week. I guess I'm...

Can any of ya'll out there offer any sage advice about blue crabbing on the gulf coast? Types of traps and where to buy them, best bait, etc; I would also like to know if blue crab traps can be fashioned from wood or plastic and if so are there plans/drawings for those traps? This is an...

Clever, I have taken note of the attachment method. It could be useful for any number of things! Dan

Jon, Wow your "problem" is a nice one to have!!!! First of all the 11.1 is the prop's diameter in inches. The 13 is the pitch or how far in a perfect world you would travel in one revolution of the prop. In water there is a lot of "slippage", so that distance is generally less. If you are...

Good for you MShepard, Did you paint the bow yourself? Very original for the brats. Welcome aboard. It kinda seems a no brainer, what to name her. One of the sharks, maybe "Great Blue"! :) The other thing I was wondering is how you were able to post a pic as part of your very first post, I...

Georgs, You may want to consider an inexpensive Coleman propane grill. Ours works real well even in the wind. It folds up real flat and we store it under the stern dinette seat. I built a PVC pipe frame in order to set it up in the center stern rod holder. The grill is as far away from the gas...
