That sounds like some much needed relief. Hang in there...V

That says it all don't it

Idling into some 3 to 4' waves will put an occasional wave over the bow of my V. It is the interval that is a killer. 30' swells at 60 second intervals is doable in a jon boat.

Better than most on fuel mileage, hauls the folks around great. The 250 is heavy, but so are the four strokes. Mercury motors all run strong top end IMPO. Too much prop in big seas is a no-no with any motor. I don't venture offshore much. Not much over 30 miles out when I do go and not if...

Thanks to all the well wishers. It means a lot

This is what has kept me sane for the past 6 months... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BmfrmDpv5qg I'm the guy wearing yellow working the flight line. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uy5fM_wghKU Florida Jets halftime show Demarco at the sticks...

I am here now to apologize to my Wellcraft friends that I abandoned last August. You last visited: 08-25-2016 Unreal how time flies by.. In the minus column we have: IIRC you guys knew I was sick and had lost a pile of weight. Tons have happened since then and I am no longer...

I am so sorry for pulling a complete disappearing act.. No it wasn't jail.. Ha Just a bunch of life happenings that I could write a couple more volumes over. Culminating at 1:30 PM this past Sat when my father passed. Roy L. Arnett has crossed the bar for his last voyage home. He will be...

That is a good clip in a cuddy. You know me, I like it:sun: I followed a Canyon Bay boat down the Homasassa River last weekend. Speed limit of 25 mph. Most boats do 30 on plane pretty easily. Not the Canyon Bay. 19.5 MPH. With no tabs I could plane and hang at that low a speed. He was tab...

Those lobster weren't moving much, out in the wide open too.. I wonder why my lobster never seem to be just laying there on a sandy bottom in the wide open in middle of the day. Great post either way. I just wonder if the FWC has approved the taking of lobster via K-9? LOL!

Look at the wire run from underneath the console to the stern. If they cut (butchered up) a big hole in the fuel tank hatch then that may be the reason they slid the console to one side... Otherwise, my center console has been modified but the console is fairly close to being centered and...

I don't think I would recommend our place. Monday was manual laborers with pick axe and shovels digging trenches for irrigation through the limerock covered coral rock. 7:00 start Tuesday was tree trimming, and I mean a pile of men and equipment with three bucket trucks, one small portable...

Alligator Reef Light A good pull...

I know the overall catch is kinda pathetic looking. Better than a good day at work...And only one fisherman.. Da boat Bgreene. A 5" fish with the right camera angle

We were in the same spot Bradford only about a mile this side of World Wide Sportsman. Bayside Keys Kottage, docking for up to 26' a compound with multiple units. Yes Bgreene except I didn't use the big prop. It only runs 56 with the 21P Thunderbolt on the limiter, full of fuel, water...

You got my point then? My home is powered by Natural Gas and/or Coal BTW. No Nuke Power Gen Stations for Florida anymore. They are doing the phase out thing... Where it cost a gagillion dollars to maintain the old plant even though it ain't making power anymore. Lookup- Crystal River...

Fishing report--Islamorada - One week ain't enough gentleman. We as a family, my wife and daughter spent several days beating around on the Gulf side, snorkeling and Tarpon fishing bridges as the wind was blowing 15 to 20kts. I had one nice Tarpon blow up on a mullet at Whale Harbor Channel...

Oh, it was just a simple survey... I say CRAZY! :oh:

He has the best low cost motor on the planet. Nothing cheaper to rebuild than a old V-6 Merc. Those TOP are a complete PITA to reassemble, in perticular getting the rings to compress and fit into the bore while juggling 5 other rods, pistons and rings flopping around on the crankshaft...

That is not the range your motor should be in at WOT. 5200 to 5800 rpm is what I have been told all my life. The OLD V200 2.4 L Merc would turn 6100 as they didn't have limiters back when. Motors never run stronger than right before they pop. Lean run 2 strokes run real well. Ever...
