Lakeland, FL - Lineman cold cocked but good in NY. But What a good attitude about it. Turkey & Dressing thru a straw? Anyone? http://www.myfoxtampabay.com/story/20078392/2012/11/12/lakeland-electric-worker-attacked-in-new-york

Probably the best move I ever saw by the grand puhbah. Repeat after me- "Never under any circumstances talk Politics or Religion in mixed company.." We are a nation divided. To those that I may have offended, I apologize. I shall never get sucked into political conversations again...

I thought they went left, turns out to be an editorial. Oh well, it managed to get the liberal media spinning like a top. Go get your Troll on Furguson, I happen to agree with you on a lot of what you said, thanks for growing a pair and putting it out there.. No Obama did not have...

After running a worked over 24p Tempest for the last year the 21p Thunderbolt is like adding a 100 shot of nitrous. Out of the hole in a boatlength and screams to the 6000 redline/alarm at 56MPH. Mileage is better too. We went over 70 miles on about 12 gallons of fuel cruising at 3500 to...

On Monday at about 7 in the evening I started with major heart-burn. Yup, you prolly know the rest. Drove myself to the ER Tues. morning and they took me straight to the Heart Cath. lab for a stint. Heart Attack at 43 years old. All seems to be going well for me now, feeling fine. Looks like I...

To the forecasters--If you have no ideas what the weather is going to do, please don't guess at it... :devil: Pick up TheFermanator and head to Homasassa for a scallop trip. The weather was kinda dicey. Wind chop and a fairly stiff current tried to spoil an otherwise good time. Weather...

Spotted three V-20's and an 18' this weekend. One was northbound on Hwy 19 near Homasassa, cuddy with light blue name on the side, if I could only make it out. On the water, a 20' Center Console w/outboard heading up the Halls River, another 20 center with a bracket with full width dive...

Incorporating it into the gunnels would give you more space inside and shed most of the water overboard. IIRC -Hawaii seems to have their share of pilothouse boats. I love them for their function and their looks. The Everglades boats I have seen lately have a lot of stylish glass around the...

From the river, south seemed to be the place to snorkel up a big mess of scallops. Plentiful gathering, water temps between 87 and 89 degrees, good friends and perfect weather. Couple gallons cleaned and vacuum packed. :sly: Coming back down to earth on the eve of going back to work. :cry:

If your waiting on me-- Might be waiting a while, someone will be along capt Ron.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6Tv1EBb-MqE Dropped from 20' in the parking lot, rigged and run after then cut in front of console and run again, then 10 people climb aboard for the photo shoot. If I had the coin.. I want one in yellow and without the drop test. AND I did go by and look at...

Yup, the $13.47 shift lever. I have heard of this part breaking before. Shoving it into gear without the engine running is probably the #1 cause to kill it. If the Dog gear doesn't sync with the ring gears properly it puts pressure on this piece as well as all of the linkage. (Shift shaft...

Then I took off the winch, jack stand and hitch for a little renewal, these are the after pics. Wired up all new LED lights while I was there. Rustoleum Silver Hammered Look paint after prepping with Ospho.

Used 3M Super Duty Rubbing Compund on all the Aluminum, then used Wenol. Cut and drilled all new brackets from 3/16" SS angle and replaced all u-bolts and hardware with SS. Replaced the fenders. Old fenders were in rough shape, cracked at the corners. Tires used to rub as the torsion axle...

Flats skiff trailer needed some TLC. 1996 model Loadmaster BUNK trailer. Before pics

Aside from a little rain last Sunday the weather was perfect. Stayed at Plantation Key Colony and got to bully net some Spiny Lobster. Wound up with 16 opening night and a total of 26 for the three night event. First night began at 12:01 Wed morning and stayed out til 5am. I lost...

What am I looking at on a 90 Johnson that won't shift? Cable is working and smooth, moves the linkage and the shift rod. I can't remember how it attaches in the lower. Starts in gear irregardless of position of the shift rod (thankfully). I'll drop the lower after I finish the lobster...

Be content with what you have. I work for what I have. My junk ain't special. Ummm that didn't sound right. I mean, I am a little more proud of my Wellcraft after a full day on the water. Went Scalloping in Stienahatchee and had a buddy that wanted to follow along in his 20' Proline...

Scallops were pretty thick in the area around Little Grassy island between Horseshoe and Steinahatchee. Visibility beyond 6 feet of depth was horrible. Boats were everywhere. On low tide moving closer to shore in 4 to 5 feet seemed to be the easiest gathering and best visability. On...
