    What Are Your Favorite Foods For Longterm Storage?

    I'm not sure True Lime would have the right amount of acid to 'cook' the fish in ceviche, but it certainly works well as a fresh juice alternative for plenty of other things. We use it all the time even at home because it's just so much easier to have on hand than fresh limes that go bad. We...

    2016 Tall Ships on Great Lakes

    Does anyone know what they'll be doing this summer? (2023.) We missed them in Erie last year due to health issues. (Kiddo got Lyme disease.)

    Total noob to boating

    It’s very weird - I’m using Safari on the iPad and IPhone and on the phone I only get the “quote” button and on the iPad I usually get just the “quote” button but occasionally if I reload I get the full set of options. Not sure what’s going on there. I tried telling it to request the desktop...

    I’m the future wife in question, and it was initially my idea, so I think we’re good. :D (The other half will only complain if I don’t let him make ‘improvements’ to any electronics involved. Though right now he’s occupied with the crummy lighting in the RV, so the potential boat is safe atm...

    Oh, no! That’s a wonderful suggestion. I will look into that. I mean if I could make the perfect boat magically appear tomorrow and wake up knowing how to do things safely, that’d be great, but as that’s unlikely to happen we’re willing to be patient and make sure we have a decent idea of what...

    If it’s inflatable we could deflate it and put it in the Element potentially? Although I am not sure about the combination of inflatable and dog nails? I might be overly concerned but I just imagine him shifting and digging his claws in and *pop* :D

    Total noob to boating

    We recently got an RV and keep finding ourselves at places where there’s nice boating, so I’m here to mostly lurk and try to learn about boating and maybe get ideas on what we should get. (Kayaks come to mind first but honestly I don’t fancy the relative lack of stability in a kayak, if I’m...
