Out of my league.

Thats a lot of dough. Basically, you need a second job just to pay for all things related to keeping a boat.

anyOne know how much gaS is on the water nowadayS ?

 

[jcohen9999]

I heard Woodcleft has it for $3.99.

BTW, I use Direct Marine Fuel. It's the best. Last year I spent $.40 less per gallon than my brethren using fuel docks and I didn't have to deal with the hassle.

If you are at a private dock or a marina without a fuel dock you should be good to go!

Well, I hope not because I believe the pin is on the wrong side of the fencing over there.

If we are not at Kismet or Watchhill then we are usually right in front of that first small beach just east and south of the pin.

I heard Woodcleft has it for $3.99.

Wow they are giving gas away on the south shore. It is $410.00 in my marina on the north shore.
I renewed my Captain's license today but I doubt the people I captain for can afford to take out the Yacht.
I am going to start using Vodka instead of gas. :tongue1:

Jarrett - 80 MPH?? Zoooooommmmm.....I'll wave as you go by! I once topped out at 35 mph but thought she would shake apart...25-30 is comfy enough to cruise for me thanks

Love the link you put up Ink for LI Boater Info, will definitely be using that tide chart in my travels.

Has anyone noticed how low the low tides have been lately? I live right here and can't believe some of the stuff I'm seeing this year. Kinda wierd...

Anyhow, I still can't find my decent pics of my boat..so these will have to do for now..she's old (like me..:shhh but knock teak, she's been dependable for a bunch of years now!!
btw..she is "Comfortably Numb" ...which is always playing when I leave the dock..told ya..she's a pleasure craft

(that's at my old dock, two canals over..)

not sure why that railing looks like it's falling off..an optical illusion I guess.
Wow, that pic is old, the name wasn't on the boat yet!

Tomorrow she gets summerized & will get the bottom paint on this weekend...almost party time
