    1988 Rogue 2420

    Not the same. They're "Forumla," yours was "Formulated."

    20 Member family Vacation

    Another option - with more available in the "no one has to cook" category: Gaylord Opryland. You can literally spend a week there, and never have to leave the building. And, there is a ton more to do within a 30 minute drive.

    20 Member family Vacation

    You'd have to look closely at the particular house we stayed at: but, it had ways to handle large meals, outside games and toys, table tennis and it's own beach. They provided beach toys and equipment: kayaks, SUP, chairs, even some fishing gear. Lemme know if you want the link. I'll dig it up...

    20 Member family Vacation

    We did! I don't think the house we stayed at would hold 20 adults, but might handle 20 if a bunch were kids. But it was on Keeywadin Island: fantastic week on the Gulf Beach and kinda' off the grid. (Think I can even link you to the exact rental if I looked) Couple of good resorts in the Smokey...

    Potential new boat owner

    That opens a lot up for you: just about anything can yank a tube around.

    New boat owner!

    Welcome aboard. I agree with Scott, give the maintenance items a good servicing. After that if you take care of it; it can be a fine boat. I was never going to be a Bayliner owner until ... I was. And the crazy thing has been a good boat.

    Potential new boat owner

    Welcome aboard: Start by reading this topic if you haven't already - https://forums.iboats.com/forum/boat-topics-and-questions-not-engine-topics.10/ Next, I would suggest three things: 1) A boater's safety course, 2) a trip to local marina and see what people on the lake you will use tend to own...

    Got ME a nice something, BECAUSE!!! :)

    I've got an older Mossburg 500: I have the shorter barrel for it and I think that's what a lot of police departments were using years ago. The only auto shotguns I've used are the Benellis, and I do like them quite a bit. Never owned one though.

    Finally, a good idea.

    The article is fine if you want to talk about the arm itself: if this topic goes to politics or mud slinging at other members; it's going. For myself: while I wouldn't buy that particular gun; there are plenty of youth arms out there. Been making them for years, but I prefer a bolt action .22...

    AD's right : this is headed the wrong direction. Let's watch the politics y'all.

    Too much boat?

    Weird: I've been seeing several boats similar to that one trailering North through the Nashville area. I know they're pricey ... very nice lookin' but WAY outta' my league.

    Recommendations for cleaning bilge?

    I was suggested once to use Dawn in the bilge like AllDodge said, and add a little water to encourage "sloshing." Then, pull the boat on the trailer for a couple miles :) I've actually tried it coming back from the ramp a couple times and it seemed to work well.

    Backing up

    I've heard that tilting the motor up on those (like way up) helps. It has to do with how the hull interacts with water at the stern (if I followed the dude who I talked to correctly). But - I've never run a boat like that myself, so take that into account. 🙃

    Nice. That's supposed to be an excellent gun. I've got several Rugers - love 'em. Congrats.

    Boat wakes

    Outboards are gaining popularity again, and if you're buying new are pretty easy to get into. I've mostly had outboards, but my last two boats have been I/O's and I'm happy with both. I'm not sure that I see a huge difference between maintenance and even potential re-powers. Tubing is about the...

    Do you use non ethanol gas ?

    I've cleaned up the topic a little. Let's keep this civil and stay outta' the politics please.
