Gonna pass 3,000 very soon. Wow! When I signed on here we only had a bit over 1,000 members! :)

I bet if everybody over the rank of Captain started any 2 of the threads below at the same time we could shoot past 5,000 and soon thereafter blow up the server with too many responses for it to handle:


1) Which is the best 2 stroke oil to use?
2) Which is the best 4 stroke oil to use?
3) What boat should I buy?
4) Would it be O.K. to tow my 10,000lb boat using my truck rated for 5,000lb if I was just going a short distance?
5) What's the best gas to use?
6) Is it safe to use Ethanol without using a treatment?
7) My gas is 2 months old now how should I treat it?
8) What is the safest way to buy a boat that is titled in a different state?
9) Should I get an outboard or an I/O?
10) Which of the following accessories should I buy first?
11) Here are 10 completely different types of boats in several price ranges, which one should I buy?
12) Should I get a 2 stroke or a 4 stroke?
13) I have a non boating friend who heard that... Is he right?
14) Am I getting ripped off because the PO said...?
:lol::lol::lol:

Re: New record, for a day, at least.

Keep one thing in mind about all these "new records". They do not compare to what last years numbers.

Back in January admin changed the time people stay logged in after they leave from 15 minutes to 30 or 35 minutes so people don't get kicked off line if they spend too long typing a post or reply.
What that does is keeps people logged in longer after they leave if they don't log out.

So naturally, with people not getting logged out as quickly, there are always more people showing online at one time that there used to be.
Bet if they turned it up to an hour we would have 5 or 6000 online.

For some reason I thought we changed it back, just double checked and it is at 30 minutes. The numbers however are still accurate, 3,223 visitors in 30 minutes is awesome!

12vman is correct if he meant that 5/19 would be the date of the next record.

Make a new prediction. I think this Friday though Monday are open. That gets the first float of the year and first float ever prep before the holiday. And Monday is the "What happened" follow up questions. It's all good. :happy:
