    Just thought I'd share a nice photo.

    Guess I'm a flea now. A rare day I had time to do something for myself. Put 8 hours on the ski this year and 50 on the boat. That's just sad.

    Another Alpha one Gen I to Gen II Swap Thread

    Just coat the exposed wood with a thin 2 part epoxy. That's already more than the factory probably did.

    Between the two, I'd prefer the yamaha. That's just me.

    non alcoholic beer

    I actually didn't know they made a distinction. The only limit I was familiar with was the 0.5%. Had a friend who for medical reasons i can't recall, had to be really careful about it.

    non alcoholic beer

    The only time I tried (meaning put more effort into it then just letting it ferment freely) to make a hard cider they were a wee bit too strong... about 12% abv. Was more like a carbonated apple wine. They went down like water around the bon fire but I drank about 12 way too fast. Haven't made...

    non alcoholic beer

    Press them full skin and put a burper in it. The natural yeast on the outside will ferment it. Takes a month or two in the fridge.

    non alcoholic beer

    Twas but a joke. My fresh pressed cider I get from the orchard ferments to a higher ABV too... I've gotten up to 2% via gravity.

    non alcoholic beer

    Since there is a wee bit of alcohol still in the N/As, did you calculate how much alcohol you actually consumed too?

    Getting New Knees . . .

    Those ice pad machines were awesome for mom and dad after their surgeries. No messing with an ice pack, just a tank and hose. I used to pop out in the middle of the night, swap the bath and start it back up for mom after her rotator cuff.

    non alcoholic beer

    I always took that as I needed to start drinking again lol. I'm pretty lactose intolerant... so even cheese I typically can't trust after... I'm not giving up cheese.

    [SPLASHED] I/O (Sterndrive) Conversion to Outboards

    Maybe my turn for new boat time

    This had a clutch on the rack. No possible way to push the drive unless you turned the wheel. The power assist without that I would assume still moves, just woth the force needed to move the actuator tacked on, like a car.

    Maybe my turn for new boat time

    Oh, so bicycle pump. I only ask as I tried one of the no feedback Helms on my restoration and hated it for the same reason. Stiff. Stiffer than the 40 year old detmar it replaced. I don't see why they'd use that on a power assist anyway, but just a thought.

    Maybe my turn for new boat time

    Just out of curiosity, well 2 actually. First, what air pump? Is this like a quick winterizing kit? Second, what kind of rack is on the helm?
