    Boating GPS

    When I purchased my pontoon boat in February I looked at several GPS units. I decided on the Garmin ECHOMAP UHD2 53CV+TRANSDUCER. It worked flawlessly all season. It has all the inland lakes, rivers and Great Lakes where I do most of my boating. Being a Garmin unit it works well in the daylight...

    Boat values

    A used boat is only worth what a buyer is willing to pay for it. Book values are only a guide.

    And then not taking the kickoff to start the overtime period. I would have thought they would want the ball first.

    Hope you are not afraid of heights!

    It's not the fall that kills you. It is that sudden stop.

    Just thought I'd share a nice photo.

    This mama dove decided to make a nest on the starboard pontoon of my boat. Due to some migratory bird treaty of 1918 I cannot remove the nest so my boat is held hostage until the baby dove flies away. Hopefully soon. Saw the dove hanging around my boat so I searched and found the nest on the...

    Thinking of trading deck boat for jet boat

The only one that had water in the bilge was my 1963 Chris Craft Constellation. It had a wooden planked hull and when first placed in the water there was water in the bilge...
