    A blonde, brunette and a redhead were sitting in their Gyn's office and the redhead says she heard that if the man was on top it would be a baby boy. If the woman was on top it would be a girl. The brunette then noticed the blonde giggling and asked her what was so funny. The blonde replied "I'm...

    Joke Thread.. post 'em if you got 'em

    I went to my doctor about these headaches I've been getting. He told me that whenever he gets one, his wife gives him a bj and told me I should try it. Went back to him yesterday and he asked me if it worked. I told him yes and by the way you have a lovely home.:huh:

    twin fuel tank set up

    Thanks, that's about how I will do it. It's just that I keep mine in back of my house in a canal and usually gas up with a caddy. It's a real PITA to have to turn the boat around to gas the other side. I know it helps balance the boat to keep them about equally filled so I like to keep one full...

    89 300 DA leak?

    I had the same problem with a 88 270 DA. It was the transom plate corroding from electrolysis. The lower corner was eaten away enough that it was leaking a good bit. I tried to tighten that bolt to snug it up but the bolt came right out. It had been eaten right in half in side the transom. I...

    by what I can tell by the blue/silver anodized aluminum component is an amplifier so I would venture to say that the glass fuses and bus bar is for the stereo and related components. It is certainly not factory wiring and connectors. Looks like a clean enough job though so if it's not broke...

    I would like to introduce myself as I am new to the club but no stranger to Sea Ray (especially since I used to work for them). I've owned a few Sea Rays (4) and a few others and seem to always go back to the late 80's models. My name is Matt and I bought a '88 300 WE 6 months ago and began the...
