This is a very old thread and nothing really added. I was able to find some information on the 480MY by searching. I'm looking for this to be my retirement boat if I can still find a viable one in 8 years or so. There are a few owners and prior owners on here that have information. But it...
Agreed. I am a member of the facebook group attached to this site. There tends to be more troll commenters than answers. I don't think I have ever posted there. Only check farcebook about once a week to see what family is doing and then shut it back down. Can't take the overall ignorance.
Well, since I would be retiring, It would be several boats instead of a big one. Probably move up to a 310 dancer for Indiana local. Likely a 300 SD for the condo on LOTO. The 52 DB for ICW. I really envy you DB guys.
I'm barefoot on the boat. Have a pair of Nike Slides for dock or ramp use that work perfect for that. Damn things are just too expensive! Out of 20-40 folks we tie up all weekend with, I don't think any of us wear shoes.
I'm afraid I have lived this reality all my life. I have moved a lot. But, never far from I-70. I have literally seen snow on one side and not the other.
I have mine on the helm near the compass. The 240s don't have a radar arch and I mounted the sirius receiver and MFD on the door below the wheel. So, short wire runs. It has never been an eyesore or obstruction. Only issues is sometimes we don't think about it and throw towels over the...
Spend a lot of time in the winter competing with SeaNile for the top 20 worst guitar players club. The motorcycles don't get winterized. So, any sunny day over 50f, I get one of them out for a quick trip. Too old to get the cold weather gear out anymore. I also do some first/third person...
Clear American water from walmart and white rum. No calories and not heavy. Has a bit of carbonation. And since I just put four shots in the bottle the water comes in, everyone thinks I don't even drink! Admiral always has Trulys on the boat for her and the other girls. Mimosas for the...
That looks very much like my ex-wife's grandmother's place near Holland. They sold and moved after she lost her husband about 12 years ago. It was pretty there.
I don't condone this person's actions. But, I can understand where he might be coming from. We anchor out on inland lakes in posted idle zones. Sometimes we are a lone boat. Sometimes there are 10-12 cruisers tied up. These jacken-apes in their glitter rockets get a shotgun start at the...
