A few years ago there was a comedy show and the guy came up with a word - "Sniglets" little words that mean other things. It has come to my attention we now have to such phrases.
Boating Dollars. Money exclusively stashed away from the wife for boating endeavors.
Smiles per Gallons. Regardless of cost, boating beats any day at the office.
Boat Tax. That amount of money paid to non boating burecrates bent on ruining your happiness.
Canbotes. Those aluminum beer cans wired together by rubber bands and captained by one day wonders.
Footitus. The itch to move up to the next size.
GoFast Push the lever just a little further forward.
Coasties Those guys that always bug you.
Oilburner Diesel boat.
Stinkpot Gas Boat
Soup (Fog) Stuff you can't see through.
You bought a "What" Wife is still on the floor.
Snailboater Only slightly more elevated than the canbote.
Yarditus Those that by pass footitus and go really big.
On the Hard It has two meanings. Those that don't know how to park boat in a slip properly and those who are having work done.
Boataholic Any one reading this thread.
"on the hook" Anchored
"splash" Put boat in the water
"fibereuphoria" The natural "high" you get when smelling fiberglass
Velcrumbs The unwanted crap that sticks to velcro (I wrote that one in the mid 80's.
Poleboarder Term that a kitesurfer uses for windsurfers (like power vs sail boats)
Can any one think of a few more that are appropriate to our passion?
