You just made a very good point I hadn't thought of, and it may have gotten glossed over. A turbo boat is the wrong boat for doing the loop for...
Know the route well. One east run the entire Erie from Tonawanda and one west run to Oswego. About 10 + up the Hudson (north/south) to Albany &...
How long are you married Bill. I've got 37 years. I'd be gone if she told me to give up boats, bikes and looking at pretty girls and she'd be...
Absolutely. I'm on a 1981 56MY Hatteras. It would make a good livaboard, but there's also a learning curve. If you've caught the Great Loop...
You might have missed: "I am looking to keep this whole thing under $200,000 "
1) YES! Although obsessed may be a better word for it. It makes absolutely no sense from any practical standpoint. It's just something that...
Welland Canal Sorry guys. Shhhh, That's the boss, not the cap.:eek: Roger was a big help today, and a good guy to have aboard. After the Erie...
The law is one thing, reality another. I've been on (and been boarded on) several boats where the Doc.# was no more than vinyl stick-ons and...
Currently doing the Loop, let me give a few observations. 1) I don't find this talk of MPG very relevant, because the are so many factors that...
Quiet ride across Lk. Ontario to Pt. Dalhousie today. A bit boring and gray, but short. Met up with Roger for a burger after we arrived. He had...
Bow Cam Just occurred to me that some of the Newbies here may not know how to follow our trip unless they back-track through 20 something pages...
Cobourg, Ontario Beautiful harbor and marina, only 2 blocks from the heart of a very nice town. Wonderful people here, and I was even able to...
You've quoted our plan Cap. Won't comment on the waitress though since my wife follows the thread. I'll just mention that the Grand Hotel in...
No. Straight to, then Toronto and into the Welland Canal. P.S. Flat calm this morning. Guess the shark is safe.:D
I thought they were talking about me for a second, because I as a bit grumbly with the power situation when I first pulled in here. lol. In fact...
A few nights ago I watched a loud, maybe 40' Cigarette pull into the dock with a big, brassy and rather ugly blond aboard (but she looked good...
Yes it is. I can guarantee that you would get no more enjoyment from that than I would a White Castle Hamburger for about $0.75, and both are...
I think we're all in the wrong business. :D Reminds me of what George Carlin once said: 'If you put two pieces of wood together in away people...
OK, granted that I'm a guy who would take a White Castle hamburger over a lobster, but this is a feakin' pig...swine. "free range" means the...
Don't forget the gold paper.:rolleyes: I saw on the today show a few weeks ago a restaurant in NY serving a $170 lobster roll. They top it...
