    I just got back from Green Bay

    and one of the best weekends of my life! It was by far the best AND most fun game I've ever seen at Lambeau Field. Green Bay and the Packer faithful . . . they're simply the best. :chug:

    A woman that can handle herself

    A very sad story, and a sad commentary on our society that security guards are necessary in a church, but it could have been much worse if not for this woman, a former police officer in downtown Minneapolis. Say hello to Jeanne Assam http://www.thedenverchannel.com/news/14817480/detail.html

    Trailering - engine up or down?

    Typically I only trailer my boat a few miles, but will be going about 50 miles this time. When you trailer, do you tilt your engine up or down? I'm thinking it should be down.

    Gator

    Does anyone know anything about these, from personal experience or otherwise? A friend e-mailed me today and is looking at a 1999 model with a 260 hp engine. Asking price is $28,000. All I know about them is from what I see for sale on yachtworld.com. I advised them to have it surveyed and...

    20' Wellcraft adrift

    Sunday afternoon while we were out on the water I was monitoring Channel 16 (as I always do), when CG Station Tybee came over with a pan pan and switch to 22 for a bulletin. The bulletin was that there was a 20' Wellcraft adrift in the Cooper River, and for boaters in the area to be on the...

    Flying Colours

    I just saw this piece about the Flying Colours, the sailboat missing off the NC coast. It's very sad. Sailors’ circle holds hope http://www.projo.com/news/content/a_sailors_life_05-18-07_UB5M866.355c273.html

    A good day on the Pipe Dream

    I thought I'd share a few pics from last weekend's cruise. I know y'all like pics. ;D Places, everyone. The dogs had been swimming at the beach already, and were ready to chill. We cruised up the Chechessee River, past islands and sandbars, until we reached the Hwy 170 bridge at Lemon...

    I'd like a Wasque 26, please.

    One of my favorite boats, and someday I just might have one. Was in Charleston last weekend and stopped by a marina, saw this boat which I have seen there for several years. Sad to say its condition . . . well, let's just say it has looked better. :-/ Still, I lusted after it...

    If I had lots of spare money, and time ::) Fiesta, a 53' Ray Davis, built in 1972 This boat is tied up a hundred yards from the PD. I know the owner. She is, to me, the quintessential classic sportfisherman, and she is in beautiful condition. I have been lusting after her for years. I only...

    Wahoo!

    Not so much a recipe, anyone can do it. First thing is to work with a guy who regularly goes offshore and brings you fish. ;) He gave me some wahoo he caught last weekend. I've grilled it before, but never fried it. So last night I got some Zatarain's and got busy. Here's the finished...

    Launched (finally)

    After a spring of home improvement, the PD is finally in her slip, and life is indeed very good. Launched by myself Saturday (no pics), and simply took her into her slip where I spent 3 hours cleaning 4 months of dust, pine pollen, oak pollen from the top, deck and cockpit (scrub, scrub...
