  1. Dammit, why didn't I think of that.
  2. 30 day sin-bin, this time around.
  3. Does that mean I have to give my tent and bottled water back?
  4. You were calling Wiley that! Not nice!
  5. Welcome. Was it a permanent or short-term banning?
  6. Correct, and it was the perfect time of day because..... It was Pete's Pub Time!!!
  7. Why does a www site versus non-www site make a difference to the log-in?
  8. Stil have issues staying logged on. Cleared all my cookies etc. and started again - still didn't work. In fact, sometines when I log on and then go to a thread it shows me logged off again and I have to log in a second time.
  9. Is what you are selling worth someone importing - and can it not be easily bought in their country? Sounds fishy to me. Perhaps go the next step and simply ask how he/she wants to proceed and see if they want shipping first or something similar. but do all this through direct email.
  10. Finish in about an hour. Country Club's 20th anniversary and they're having a buy one meal get the second for 20 cents tonight. So we will head up there around 6:30 for a drink then table reserved for 7pm. Back to bug those bumbleheads in the Bilge for an hour or so before bed. Mis-Rest git yer ass in there. Tomorrow daughter's confirmation at 11:00. Celebratory lunch afterwards. Will be on the boat by 4 with jet ski in tow. Anchor up at Little Talbot State Park (Fort George). Be back at the slip about 6pm Sunday. Ready with batteries charged for Monday morning and doing it all over again!
  11. Yeah, don't get me started on trailer lights. Basically I have given up and my lights don't work. Even tried the LED ones. Probably will get pulled over somewhere down the pike, though since it's a single trailer the lights on the tow vehicle are fully in play.
  12. Leaf springs on my jet ski trailer went out on the road two years ago. Replaced both of them plus new U-Bolts etc. One of them just went again. Is two years normal - only 30 miles round trip maybe 30 times a year to the ramp? Not that they're expensive ($89 for the 2 springs and U-Bolt sets) but man are they a pain in the arse to get off and replaced!
  13. My daughter turned 14 last September and had her card within 2 weeks! She would live on the boat if she could (so long as it diodn't mess with her basketball!). She has been running the 10' RIB on her own with friends for a couple of years since the OB is 8HP. Now she is on the Jet Ski (but only within sight of the mother ship)!
  14. Just wondering how many of us have completed a formal boating course, and which ones? We have all (5 of us) done the 1 day USCGA course, and I have toyed with doing their navigation course ready for retirement in the islands. Just don't have the time or energy right now.
