    Should I be worried before buying?

    Ask for maintenance records as you talk to them about the boat. The response and discussion will tell you a lot. Most people don't have documented service records, so then I think you need to put experienced, non-biased, eyes on the craft - especially one of that size and age. The extra...

    1975 oday 22

    Enjoying following your progress, good motivation for the projects I'm always jumping-around on too. Curious, why not using red-colored lighting?

    2023 NFL/CFB News and Nonsense

    Selfishly, I hope they get it figured-out, watching Bowl games is a Family tradition (enjoying a few coldies and sharing stories while others make a lot of really good food) - it sure sucks when the games make you want to paint a closet...

    Mr & Mrs Claus go camping

    Yes, it is very suspect, for now. Seems like even most of those unfamiliar/unsure are staying away - nice and quiet for the Admiral and me. Although those counting on the $$ coming in from other areas are not so happy about it. Below is how it looked last Wednesday

    2023 NFL/CFB News and Nonsense

    does that press release mean the Cowboys can blame that for getting firmly trounced by the Bills recently?

    Mr & Mrs Claus go camping

    Ya, gotta be very careful going out on the Lake up here in the Adirondacks this year. Gotta try a little before having some Family time inside Camp.

    projects other than boats

    That looks fun! And nice rendering. Have done a few "renderings" for smaller stuff for myself, but they're usually sketches. Only the bigger stuff for work gets CADD drawings. What software are you using?

    2023 NFL/CFB News and Nonsense

    My son sent me that one the morning after the Bills non-loss. Laughing is good, fun to see it again. Gotta admit though, that Norwood thing still kinda hurts

    Sea/Lake Food

    The waters here at the eastern end of Lake Erie are a lot cleaner now than a half-century ago - thanks, in part, to an unintended consequence of Zebra Mussels. But the testing is better now, and the "advisories" make some people feel so good to say.... As said before - choose your poison

    Seeking Advice: Real-Time Bathymetry Solutions for a 25-Foot Boat

    Aside from the objective or application... We (at work) had bathymetric-survey done for shallow sedimentation basins at our site, and had the resulting surface tied-into a UAV survey surface of the surrounding site that is above liquid-level surface.

    Cybertruck

    Glad I'll never have to think about wanting/getting/having one of those. But I am also glad others are looking into different idea. The vehicle shots in the video are interesting -but that is not a work truck. Ya, that guy is not much of a speaker. Is that the vehicle Leno tested when they...

    Co-owning a boat?

    I avoid it, but it has happened. All owners of whatever the asset is, must have the same desire, resources, and willingness to care for anything co-owned, Certainly, the higher the asset value, the more this similarity in co-owners must exist. The stars can align, but it's kinda rare. If...

    1975 oday 22

    Aside from the regs - you can do a buoyancy calc as simple or complex as you'd like, to get a rough idea if filling that space (and/or any other spaces) with foam, makes much of a difference at all. Being a wood boat, you'd have to guesstimate how much of the wood gets saturated

    Yes, that is gorgeous! Must've been many loving hours (and maybe invented some new words). Thanks for the pics

    Tire Recommendation, Japanese Sedan

    any vehicle, especially those with shorter wheel-base that an operator turns tightly and/or at higher speeds, needs tire rotations (I'm thinking about the vehicle The Admiral usually operates)

    Tire Recommendation, Japanese Sedan

    My .02; don't focus on names - compare costs for tires for your vehicle and intended-use, available in your area in the manner you plan to obtain them, and where/how you plan to get them mounted/balanced/installed - if at home, your choices may expand. Many Manufacturers (their name on them...
