Sixteen diferent lenders when BK this month and the big investors that buy subprime loans (thats B-C type loans ) all raised there minimum credit score to purchase a home from 620 score (stated income) to 680 -720 :eek: 60%-70% of the public is already below that score that means there now is no...

With all the new GPS equipment Now available, I think On Star may be a dying company, especially when they send out a letter such as the one I received last week. My GMC truck is a 2001. It is loaded with all the bells and whistles, including On Star, and I have used it many times. So in this...

After all this time here, I finally met my Hatteras neighbors just down the dock a handful of slips. It’s a 1987 (or did he say 89?) 52C (or is it a sportfish if it does not have a lower station?) that was custom built for her original owner who had to retire from boating due to a stroke and his...

Now this is rare. This is a salt water croc (cocodylus acutus, american crocodile), not very common. The zone is salt water, not brakish water. Different from the common alligators you see in Florida channels. The crocs in Florida were in the verge of extintion but are recovering. Not the usual...

Well I go in the water tomorrow 4/12. We are supposed to get SNOW. What happened to global warming? What happened to the early spring? What happened to the schmucks we call weather men. I sure hope my 6-71s will start with no heaters. Any ideas on how I can help them? I think they will start but...

....... for a boat doesn't always stop at the boat. I'll bet most of you and your checkbooks already know that. I am getting dangerously close to pulling the trigger on another 28" SF in the Annapolis area. As I already have one (a project boat) and as my pockets aren't so deep that I don't need...

I had a thought that it might be good as to "what to say to newbie boaters". Over the years seeing what non-boaters can do to a boat I came up with this preflight discussion. Before they even start out to the boat I explain 1. Boat shoes only or No shoes wear socks. 2. Do not put anything...

Someone asked about docking and it reminded me of some good and fun docking I've seen. 350 concrete slip Marina, Grand Isle Grand Haven MI. There was a 33 bertty flybridge. The daughter used to take it out with her girlfriends I think she started when she was 16 or soo. There was always a...

Getting ready to deliver my boss's boat on the water from Lindenhurst, NY to Panacea, Fl. which is just south of Tallahassee, Fl. Has anyone made this trip down the coast and through the Okeechoobee Waterway and back up the west coast of Florida. Any do's or don'ts I need to know about. Any...
