Re: The Anti-Starcraft Club

Hmmm...looks pretty close if we use similar counting tactics :p


list.jpg


All kiddin aside, think any restores in my future will be of the aluminum kind, heck I missed the whole summer boating season with this one...still a ton of fun though!!!


LOL Kenny it was after midnight when Kev made that list I will admit I helped with names :D . I think the late hour may have contributed to counting a few members twice although mostly notable members :D.

I agree the best things in life come in a can. But I rather stick with my Aluminum Pricecraft 19.6 rather than switch to a Star-Craft. Oh do they have to wear a thong? If Florida at the Columbus Day Regata they all just wear a very big smile. Keep it up guys.....lots of fun!!

"Add Me"

Because aluminum smelting involves passing an electric current through a molten electrolyte, it requires large amounts of electrical energy. On average, production of 2 lb (1 kg) of aluminum requires 15 kilowatt-hours (kWh) of energy.

So much for being our ''green'' world.

LOL Mikey actually I watched it on Craigs drop in price for several months before I snagged it . I have found out since then that they were made from 1956 -1962 so they are kinda rare I guess made by the Ownes Brothers Yacht company in Tell City In. just up the road from me :D.
