Are all of the old topics and threads still there?* It almost sounds like they started over with an entirely new database.* However, that would not prevent you from reusing your old login and password.* Unless they had some sort of partial DB loss? Those kinds of issues are exactly why Baker...

Come on down.* There are quite a few of us on this forum that live on or near Galveston Bay.* It's almost 72, sunny, 34% humidity today.* Kind of like San Diego. And it's like that EVERY day down here!

Great!* There you go!* Now everyone that can Google "no state income tax" or "no property tax on boats" has found us!* Prepare for your slip fees to go through the roof. I sure hope Gov. Perry doesn't see this! *

Almost certainly.* To my knowledge, Fales did not make the sedan style trawler like that one.

If diesel at the dock goes to $10 per gallon, it will cost me less than that per hour of operation of Boomarang. Ah, diesel trawlers.* The Jetta TDI of the waterways!

You actually can post pics in your Biography section of your profile.* Or more accurately, a link to pics.* By using one of the free picture posting sites you can insert the pics in your bio.* Because they are a link you can post just about all that you want. * -- Edited by dougd1 on Monday...

Alfton, that does sound like fun! BTW, is that a Pilgrim in your avatar?* Would it happen to be the same one that was in the middle of the road on Pleasure Island after Hurricane Ike? Those are great boats!

Were there any zincs on any of the exposed metal?* Or did it all depend on the remote mounted bonding system zinc bar? I would think that a zinc directly attached to a bronze or other metal piece to be the best bet.* Maybe they were looking to minimize drag? Loose hardware could definitely be...

Firefox keeps me logged in as well.....

That's great info!* So they will work off of the GPS that's built in.* That's for iPhone 3GS and up, correct?* And of course the iPad, no? Do you basically run it in Airplane Mode?* In other words, could you turn off WiFi, Bluetooth, etc. to save battery power? Nevermind, I just answered all...

That's what I thought when I first heard about A-GPS.* However, my personal experience just doesn't show it to be any better.* To be honest, I really don't use my iPhone for navagating.* I've got a Garmin in the car and a DeLorme USB puck on my laptop in the boat for primary navagating.* All...

The iPhone uses something called "Assisted-GPS".* It's really hard to find any good info how well it really works.* My thought is that you really should use electronics that are designed as navigational devices.* I know my iPhone seems to be hit or miss on accuracy where as my good 'ole Garmin...

Carey, We use an "out of the box" forum software that is supplied by our host.* I am not aware of a way to keep a "living" document in a thread.* I will send those to our host as suggestions. Or, perhaps you could be the keeper of such a document and have folks private message or email you...

This is a great idea, however, I can see possible problems with it.* I'm really not sure what the response would be from the members in putting together such a spreadsheet.* Remember, this site can be viewed by anyone on this planet with an Internet connection. So you say, "restrict it to...

* I wish! 4JH3E, 60 Gals.* Maybe 350 miles at a slow pace, nothing close to 800.

I wouldn't say it reduces roll, it's more like it "dampens" the roll.* If you are under way with some rolling it seems to have a nice way of taking some of that snappiness out of the roll.* I use it as much as I can if there is any rolling motion at all. As far as the OPs question on it's sea...

Yes, there is ballast. I happen to be the owner of the boat the Seahorse posted.* If you go to my web page you will find a brochure that was found on the boat when I bought it back in 1997.* It specifies 6000 lbs in a 3 1/2' full keel. However, because of the soft (read zero) chines, she...

This ain't friggin FacePlant!* It's better than that! BTW, don't bother looking for me on ANY social sites trying to deface my page.* I'll join FacePlant when Betty White joins! “I didn’t know what Facebook was,” White said, ”Now that I do know what it is, I have to say, it seems like a...

I don't see the need for https encryption for this site.* It is a public forum that can be viewed by anyone at anytime. It is a good idea not to post your SSN, bank account info, birth date, mother's maiden name, favorite color, 1st pet's name or other personal info on this site.

Come on, Baker!* All you gotta do is sell the house, Mainship, dog and it could be yours! *
