    The Dreaded "D" Word

    I still maintain that point of view. If you need to have something bigger than everyone else, it's an ego thing, which can almost always be attributed to a lack of self esteem. Once again, Gary, because I understand you're not the smartest feller, I'll attempt to paraphrase my position like I...

    Alcohol and Boating

    As the other said, drinking and driving is a no-no, whether in a boat or a road vehicle. I also liked the comment about having to tow the boat home after a day on the lake. For those of us who trailer, that should be another reason not to drink out on the water. As a father, it's my...

    Cost of gas vs cost of Friendship?

    I bought a boat to have fun. Fun usually includes inviting another family along. Because I'm inviting them, I don't expect them to chip in for fuel. I DO expect them to bring along their own snacks, refreshments, sunscreen, etc, and I make that clear when we make plans. I never ask for fuel...

    Wakeboarding threag

    Both my wife and I wakeboard. I've only been at it for a year, but my skill level is continuously improving, to the point where last time we went out I got over 3 ft. of air and actually landed. I'm always holding back, though, because hitting the water at 20 MPH hurts a lot more than I thought...

    Engine Dying

    Believe it or not, some of us don't approve of Gary's antics. But once you let the cat steal a little milk............ The Mods should have dealt with his bullying a long time ago. Ignoring poor behavior encourages the idiots. Oh well, the monster they create will eventually bite them back...

    Hull Resin

    I know absolutely nothing about the repair in question, but if it appears to you that the sales manager is "pushing" this through, I would be VERY leery of accepting the delivery of this boat without a written letter from both the dealer and Brunswick, stating that the boat will be repaired to...

    towing 185

    According to the following link, your Mazda CX-9 has a maximum towing capacity of 3500 lbs, but what are they basing that on? Is that with four passengers? A full tank of gas? 100 lbs of gear in the back? I would be much happier if they listed a GCVWR(Gross Combined Vehicle Weight Rating)- that...

    Up and down play on Alpha 1

    I was doing a little early spring inspection on the 190 last weekend, and realized that I have a little up and down play on my Alpha 1 drive. I'm not sure if it was there before.The movement appears to be happening due to a little play in the trim ram pins, both front and rear. I found the...

    Roll Call- Canadian SR owners?

    Thanks for adding to the thread, Gregg. That makes 7 of us.............LOL!!!! FWIW, I'm no longer in Canmore. I tranferred and moved to Cochrane this summer. We're only 40 minutes away from Canmore, so it wasn't that big a move. Paul

    Well, except for Four Suns, you DON'T need to keep everybody happy, Wesley. :wink: Paul

    Moderation...

    Keep your chin up, Wesley. Your job as a Mod is to keep things running smoothly within the parameters set by the site administrator. Your job is NOT to make everyone happy, all of the time. I feel your pain, my friend. I've been a Mod at CK5.com, a Chevy K-series truck site with over 40,000...

    Post your boat's name

    Bonus Days. Any day on the boat is a bonus, especially up here in the Great White North. Actually, the term originally came from my days of installing gas pipelines. Whenever things went better than planned(which was almost never), it was a "bonus day". Paul
