My sympathies to you Bayside B. I know the feeling, I just missed the best months of the fishing season with the repair on my port gearbox. But,...
Unfortunately the stupidity is usually not by the persons on the sitting on the bow as they generally are children.
Good on you Carl! This kind of honesty is as rare as it is expensive. If I had to speak of the people and organisations in my industry, who I...
The 36 Riviera is a solid boat. I owned a 1994 for a few years. I can't remember the fuel consumption. We did a lot of offshore fishing and it was...
