    1970 River Queen Houseboat new owner here!

    Congrats Beth. You're nuts, but it's a boatin' kind of nuts. You've got a lot of work ahead of you, but I hope you get the project done and enjoy the boat. In the meantime, ask away and we'll help point you in the directions you need ... which looks like a lot 🙃

    4 hours of Bottom Time!

    Most of 2021 I was doing pretty simple dives in the lakes here in Middle Tennessee. It was basically analogous to tripping face first into a mud puddle - but I did practice all kinds of training stuff that I probably wouldn't otherwise. I did a couple simple dives up in Michigan on the lake my...

    4 hours of Bottom Time!

    ^^^ it's on the list! Right now I have more travel to do than I'll ever manage. But if the time comes, I'll be sure to let you know. Heck, maybe the chance to meet somewhere in the middle will pop up too!

    4 hours of Bottom Time!

    I'm the hippo on the left playing the bagpipe. I decided against carrying a camera with me diving for a while. I've spent so much of my life staring through a viewfinder that I missed a lot of the larger world around me. So, for the time being I'm not shooting many photos ... just kinda'...

    4 hours of Bottom Time!

    I had a chance to sneak away with the Admiral for a few days this past weekend and run down to the Florida Keys. We spent a few days there, and on two of them I finally managed to get some scuba diving in on a natural coral reef. Over two days, I managed to get four dives in totaling about 4...

    Odd message on my MacBook Air laptop

    If it's just one website, I'm with Dingbat. It's on their end. You can try a different browser to see if you get the same issue. So far, it doesn't sound like your computer.

    Newbie looking for advice

    Welcome aboard. I'm going to add some off-the-wall considerations simply so they've been mentioned as you're a first time owner: Do a little reading HERE. There's some great stuff for when you look these boats over. Look over your towing capacity and how you're going to store the boat. Those...

    9mm Ammo Recommendations

    I've been shooting a lot of Federal 9mm. Local shop here bags it from bulk and sold it relatively inexpensively. I'm getting low, so haven't been shooting much the last year.

    Brinks armored car fire on skyway

    Slower than it would in Washington D.C.! (I just couldn't resist)

    New pistol for carry

    I don't know the Glock 43, but I used to shoot a Glock 23C competitively. 23 was a 40cal with a compensated muzzle. For defensive shooting I like the Glock: they're simple operating, they still shoot in a lot of weird situations (like covering 'em in water 'n mud), and they have a good feel in...

    New pistol for carry

    I haven't tried their newer guns out, but the H&K's are typically nice shooting. The grip isn't so much adjustable as it is "modular" (so to speak) ...

    Purchasing a 1971 23' Winner, no engine, great shape...

    Yeah: bummer for the desire, but that boat is a LOT of work. There are other ways to do what you want that will cost less and happen faster.
