    1 week chance to get a free SPOT GPS messenger unit

    I am Admin of these boards so this is not Spam. I am a private pilot and boater and absolutely love this amazing little device. Every boater, outdoor enthusiast and pilot should own one of these in my opinion. It will send for help outside of cell phone range if you are in trouble or you can...

    Should in-laws be hurt by this blog?

    Someone who is married to a family member posted this on her personal public blog. No one is looking for reasons to be offended but how should this be taken? Is she correct or is she being rude and publicly insensitive to her in-laws? Would be interested in hearing your thoughts. This was...

    A fantastic Book to better help understand oil supplies and production

    I don't want this to turn into a political thread that ends up getting locked. I have seen a few posts that have discussed oil production and have seen multiple errors or maybe at least assumptions when it comes to what oil supplies we have left in the Middle East. If you have any real...

    Why aren't you participating yet in iboats' fishing tournament?

    I am not complaining but I am shocked that so few iboats board members have signed up for the iboats fishing tournament. Please give feedback so we can improve the tournament. Again, we are giving away $1,000 per week and $20,000 at the end of the summer.

    Are the iboats forums faster today?

    Do you use dialup or faster internet connection?

    unfortunately our new boards system is creating huge file sized pages. The boards front page is almost half a meg in size...yikes!!! If you are on a dial up connection it must take a few minutes to load the page. Obviously this is unacceptable and we are working on solutions. We are very...

    I just showed my kids who the Tooth Fairy is...

    My wife has been giving me grief over this for a while saying I am warped; I have convinced my 5 and 6 year old kids that the tooth fairy is actually a tatooed old biker named Bob who has fairy wings under his leather jacket. I told them that sometimes his beard might tickle them in their sleep...
