    Thank you General Yeager

    Just read that Gen Chuck Yeager passed away. Death is never a happy thing, but Yeager had such a great outlook on life and lived a pretty full one. In his autobiography he said if I auger in tomorrow, it will be with a smile on my face. I hope that's the way he finished up.

    76 enterprise 165 mercruiser.

    Probably not. No Problem. We probably need some more details from you. ;) Boat size, hull style, open ocean or bays, etc. Welcome aboard.

    1999 Doral 270 - Dash Switches not working

    I will gladly admit to some "stupid," when the fix is easy and/or "cheap." ;)

    So, what did you do today?

    LOL ... he was stupid and joined during COVID. At last check, his flight got quarantined to the to their dorm/bay. Lackland would not be fun in the summer at all. He was originally going to be going back in July, but that got smoked due to the pandemic.

    1985 OMC 800 Stringer - Thump (?)

    How is the ball gear? That is a place you could have some bumps. How about the gear lube out of the upper and lower? Any metal pieces/shavings in there? I would also look at the drive shaft between the upper and lower gear case (pretty simple to disassemble). Then maybe even see what's...

    2020 Splash of the Year voting poll

    Jeeeze ... talk about "Clash of the Titans!" I voted, but feel totally guilty about the two I didn't vote for :sick:

    Diningroom table - with epoxy?

    I did my pours in the winter, in the garage with a space heater near by. The temperature was in the 68 to 74, but probably not consistent.

    Happy Thanksgiving everyone

    LOL ... never saw 'em in concert, but I've let the beard grow out while listening to the song a few times :) 2020 has been a pretty crumby year: Started it out by burying Dad, and I'm closing it out (so far) by losing an uncle I was pretty tight with. With that and the pandemic (my business...

    1st time driving from NY to So Fla...route advice needed

    I routinely (the last few years) drive about 10 hours one way, and in one trip. Anymore I can still handle about 16 straight, but that's about it. Typically, we are going somewhere on a timeline, so it's like Scott said ... punch it, and go. BUT, if you've got the time there are some great...

    Which New Boat

    The Ohio gets pretty big at some points. Many of the places that I'm familiar with, I would probably prefer the deeper V. That's true on the Tennessee as well. Some of the smaller areas I don't think it would matter as much, but on the overall I think I'd lean toward the deeper V. I don't...

    Build a Barge Workshop

    No. I couldn't get a good angle on it in the garage. It's in really nice shape. Looks similar to this car: But without the rear wheel skirts. The color is slightly different because it's been painted and the convertible top has been replaced. I'll get some shots next time I'm out there...

    Build a Barge Workshop

    ^^^ Right? :giggle: But, this did have a USB charger port on it, which will be nice to have out on the boat. It works.

    Build a Barge Workshop

    Sorry y'all ... I missed a notice that someone bumped this. I can't believe - in a pandemic - how busy life has been. One kid off to USAF, one got married, a vacation trip with the Admiral's family; not to mention trying to keep a business alive. Crazy. The deck is all off of the 'toon...

    Tankless Hot Water Heater Recommendation

    I've never had one, so I'm only going on the couple people I know who did. Most places around here heat water with electricity, and that may play a role. But both of them had service issues within a couple years of putting it in, and then like GM said - not quite enough supply. For the cost...

    Just thought I'd share a nice photo.

    ... or four canines chomping down 3 inches out front, might just secure the entire towel ;)

    Vintage STEURY

    Or, you could do some cut vinyl decals. Won't be the same thing, but won't look THAT different. Welcome
