    Been a little cold.

    I've seen a shocking amount of cracked outboards last few years... and I just can't help but wonder how people manage that.

    When I do something like that I usually get targeted ads for alcoholism and addiction hot lines. :ROFLMAO:

    1985 Cheetah transom repair.

    Been there, done that, have the t-shirt. If the deck has a soft spot you're better off assuming everything under it is garbage. That way if by some chance it isn't you get a nice surprise. The threads here have everything. The YouTube videos tend to gloss over some things. Fish bump (linked by...

    Been a little cold.

    Dad's pulled boats in weather like that. Climb on the ice, drop through, repeat. You get a 45 degree day you have to go out. Usually south shore though.

    Boat cover for FourWinns Sundowner to use when towing

    You'd have to get pretty lucky for that. My friend does OE for a few manufacturers and he has said multiple times you're better off just having someone come measure and make it.

    Alpha 1 Gen 2 - leak & transom service questions

    I rebuilt my entire boat and transom assembly and reused the studs/bolts minus the ones for the anodes. I agree, if they're fine don't bother.

    Boats from work.

    My 84 was that bad and at least was expected. That's horrible.

    I/O (Sterndrive) Conversion to Outboards

    I just got home from work. Going to play on the ATC now in the snow. Winds weren't as bad as anticipated and we're getting sleet instead of rain with the cold so that saved the power for now.

    cooking

    There's several though it's loosely a chemistry joke. One of the guys prepared an emergency spread for the teams and brought in some venison chilli... Will report back

    cooking

    I don't much care for hot for the sake of being hot. Hot seasoned is very different than hot hot... for example Carolina reaper... that being said I can not walk into my local Indian establishment and ask him to make it for me how he does at home for I am weak lol. I enjoy the cuisine though and...

    cooking

    Broken clock is right at least once a day. :LOL: And that's not a slight against them... some of the best bakers I've ever encountered. Just the cuisine in general is flat. Actually tikka masala is somewhat bland compared to other Pakistani/Indian dishes. Still delicious though. Wasn't that...

    True. But I don't really get those in the bays.

    It's Girl Scout cookie season.

    Ah yes, my local dealer is probably gearing up to push some numbers again. (I've actually never had any, my girl and family loves them)

    2025 - My Season By The Numbers

    Our camper behind the ecoboost does about 9 mpg and thats below 60 mph. The only thing eco I've found with it is the name. :LOL: Pulling the 4 winns it does 11-12. My colorado does 16 mpg. That being said it has power for days with the turbos. It's just it likes to stay in boost. I'm interested...

    Maybe my turn for new boat time

    Esthetically I hate it. That being said the bottom of the 84 was sanded for it so it'd look worse without it now. I've witnessed first hand the fouling that occurs in our reservoir and it puts to shame anything I've seen and dealt with in the brine. :LOL:
