I know I am not telling you guys anything you don't already know but I was surpised at just how deep some of the lakes in the USA are. Lake Tahoe has a depth of 501 metres, now that is pretty deep. This story is also pretty strange in that they found a diver that went missing 17 years ago...

News story about sex aboard. :wow::wow: Now that has to hurt big time.

Well I am not sure to be honest but I am going to give the skipper the benefit of the doubt and call him highly skilful in controlling his yacht. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yG9JmkhH7Qg&feature=player_detailpage

Hi All, Now I know this is a Sea Ray forum however I also know that many of you have been into boating for a long time and have got a wealth of experience with all kinds of watercraft. I was wondering when it came to jet boat manufacturers, what are the thoughts on the quality of the work by...

Hi All, We have a big problem that we need to address before we can hope to sell our boat. A buyers mechanical inspection showed that both engines need their sumps replaced as they are leaking through corrosion. Now I am obviously not happy but it is a case of sucking it up and getting the...

Okay, so we have a cat problem. For some unknown reason all the cats in our neighbourhood have chosen our yard as a designated fighting, breeding, and meeoowing ground.:smt013 I have been wondering what to do about it and I have just seen the perfect solution, you just have to check this video...

Okay we have a marina thread but this is more to do with photos around your home port, you know, where you boat. Here is our home port of Port Stephens in NSW, Australia:

Well I could not believe what I was reading today in the online newspaper. This is our marina where we were going to bring our boat down to from the Gold Coast. In fact in one shot in the video you can see our berth. I have never heard of a shark atack inside the harbour of Port Stephens...

Hi All, I am really praying for you all on the west coast at the moment as there is a Tsunami on its way to the west coast atm. They are saying it is due to hit around 0300 west coast time. The Tsunami that hit the east coast of Japan has been huge and caused massive damage. Hoping you all...

Well I have to say that trying to sell our boat in todays climate with gas prices increasing is damn near impossible. My broker tells me that they have seen a dramatic decrease in the number of lookers and in two follow up calls he did today both stated that they are no longer looking due to...

I took this photo of an unusual rock formation last year. I think this should lay to rest once and for all that it is Father Nature and not Mother Nature that we should thank.:smt043:smt043

I am sure you will have noticed from some of my other posts that we have purchased ourselves our first cruiser. Admittedly it is not the Sea Ray we wanted, "Missed it by that much." as Maxwell Smart used to say. But in doing so we were given the opportunity to inspect a newly traded boat which...

Hi All, Anyone converted ttheir gas guzzler to LPG? I am intersted in hearing from people who have done this. I see this as being a way to extend the life of power boating with gas prices going through the roof.
