Re: Boating the Upper Chesapeake
Rob - I know it was, I felt bad for you. Really hoping that this is a much better year for you and that we get to see you some at the marina and out on the water.
We were able to make it to the marina today and get the boat cleaned up and ready for use. Felt...
So, I used to get on here a lot more often but since the tapatalk app is no longer working, I can't get on nearly as much. I use my iPhone as I am on the road a lot and found the Tapatalk app was easy to use and was a great way to keep up on things. I could view "new" posts very easily in 1...
Hey Everyone! Been hanging around here for a while and picked up a used 1985 Sea Ray 30' Sedan Bridge boat that is my fixer-upper project. Here are some pictures of the boat for those that haven't seen it yet:
First part that I need some help with is replacing the wood coring in one of the...
Hey everyone.
Looks like the admiral and I will be headed to Powell this fall to take a houseboat out for a week!! I am stoked and cant wait. This has been a dream of mine for quite some time!!!
Couple questions:
We are looking to go in September possibly. The boat I wanted is not available...
Hey folks!
We are going to be staying in Colonial Beach Va. on the Potomac River for a week for vacation this year. While there, I would really like to take the boat into Washington D.C. for the day. Thought we might stop by Mount Vernon for a little bit as well.
So, I am looking for advice...
Hey everyone,
Just recently purchased a new to me boat. It does not have a compass on it and I would like to add one.
Does anyone have a good recommendation? Maybe you have one on the boat and really like it. Just wondering if the $50 dollars units are a waste of money, that type of thing...
Hey guys,
Well here is the deal, we are planing a summer vacation with my wife's family this year. We are looking for a little place on the water that we sleep 7 people and has easy access to a boat ramp so that we can take the boat and have a great time.
Here is what we are looking at...
Upper Chesapeake Fall Foliage Cruise!
A few of us over in the ?upper Chesapeake bay? thread have been throwing this idea around. So we decided to make it happen and have one last big hooray of the season.
The Date: November 1st ? No rain date. If this gets cancelled, we?ll have to wait until...
Hey guys - Well here is the deal. Back in march of this year I purchased a 1991 Four Winns 190 Freedom bowrider that we have got great use out of this year and have throughly enjoyed. (This boat is in my sig)
However, we have started boating at the Chesapeake Bay more and would prefer to boat...

Been dating a great guy for awhile and today they tie the knot! I am so excited for them and everything seems to being going well so far. Leaving for the church in the next couple of...
Hey guys, just a quick question for you. At way degree deadrise do we consider a boat to be a "Deep Vee" style?
I am considering selling my boat and going with something different. The main reason is because of how the boat rides in rough water. My wife doesn't like it bouncing around so much...
Just wondering what is the most memorable boating advice or saying you have ever received? What is that one saying that always sticks in your mind? Especially curious to hear what some of you long time boaters have to say.
For me it would be:
Red Right Return or Don't forget the plug.
Ok...
Justing wondering how many members here currently serve in the U.S. Coast Guard or have in the past.
I am feeling like it is time to do something different for a career and I started thinking about serving our country in the Coast Guard. I feel like serving in the Coast Guard would be a really...
Just curious what type of boat everyone owns.
I currently own a bowrider but always dreaming of something bigger and better. :D
Sorry if I missed any options! Also, you can vote for more that 1 if you have different types. (Not asking what have you owned, just what you currently own!)
Just...
Hey everyone. Well, here is the story, we rafted up with a couple other boats this past weekend for the first time and I was not happy with my fenders. I have pretty low freeboard so it was hard to get the fenders adjusted right to do a good job. So I have been searching and found these...
