    2000’s Bayliner 175 I/O

    I think the BR 1950 is pretty close to what i have. So, same assessment. The Merc 4cyl isn't bad. I like the economy on it. But it's a loud little mug. My old inline 6 was so quiet that you could hear the exhaust bubbles more than the engine. The Merc in the Bayliner sounds like a helicopter.

    He's a good songwriter too. I think Calendar Girl was one of my favorites of his.

    2000’s Bayliner 175 I/O

    In '02 they weren't wood free. But I know that the construction methods had improved by then. My 02 started life as a dock boat up in Michigan, but it's been garage stored since I moved it to Tennessee. For me, it's been a fine boat. Fit and finish is what you would expect out of an entry level...

    pop ups...

    I get banner ads on Chrome (but not like the ones you show). On Brave I get nothing.

    Been a little cold.

    As I've understood it "ice melt" is easier on concrete and mortar. It's not as corrosive as salt is and has different freeze properties. That's the only reason I use it as opposed to salt.

    Been a little cold.

    Middle Tennessee is pretty icy. Lots of folks to the North and West of me without power. Dog is super excited to go play in the snow ... but can't figure out why it's completely solid.

    My safety tip of the day is...

    Got caught in about 8' one time on Lake Huron in a small sailboat. Fortunately got off the water fast and easily, but it was enough to teach me a lesson.

    Interesting: I've not had the problem at all. I've been working through a new browser, but it wasn't giving me any trouble in Chrome either. Is it timing out on you guys?

    Just thought I'd share a nice photo.

    That stinks. I know it won't be the same camera. But if it's worth the effort, "a" K1000 that's not "the" might be a fun marker. They're CHEAP. And they're good. I shot Minolta SRTs which are roughly the same camera. I have three of 'em mostly collecting dust, but I can dust 'em off and throw...

    Just thought I'd share a nice photo.

    I was in dark rooms with Dad as a toddler, and really did that kind of work up into my late 20s. Had all of the stuff until several years ago when I finally decided I was happy having someone else print 'em. I think the Pentax K1000 came out in the mid-70s. Probably real similar to the model he...
