It's been awhile since I checked the price of fuel next door at Lambs Marina. As of 11 AM today, diesel is $3.15 and gas is "only" $3.65. I paid $2.55 for diesel in July in downtown Jacksonville (Jacksonville City Marina which is always about 35-45 cents a gal cheaper) but no idea what its...

See the storm is supposed to get close to S. Fla this week. Know we here in Jacksonville are being hit by a nasty NorEaster right now but Noel is supposed to go East before getting here...

At 11:24 AM PDT today, my brother lost his battle with cancer...... He was a South Californian person, Ran marathons, ate healthy stuff, rarely drank, never smoked or (as far as I know) did drugs..... While I eat Big Macs, Whoppers, drink a LOT of beer and a marathon to me is walking...

Had two of my saloon lights go bad within the past week (lightning hits) so had to replace them. I have four units in the ceiling, each take an 18" fluorescent bulb. But they do not really put out enough light. Would like to upgrade to something newer, like LCD lights but do not want to redo...

I would bore you all on HOW it got striped, but am sure no one wants to hear about it......... ( It REALLY wasn't my fault). Anyway, I now either need a new one or is it possible to "redo" the threads on this one ? Our gameplan is to leave next Saturday with 3 of the grandkids for the...

38-foot boat crushes Wellington man Click-2-Listen By ALLYSON BIRD Palm Beach Post Staff Writer Thursday, August 23, 2007 PALM BEACH GARDENS — A retired Wellington couple was just moments from setting sail on a Bahamas vacation Wednesday morning when the husband was crushed by the boat meant...

The answer is...... My cell phone tonight.... Got off the boat, had a phone call....... picked the phone up and dropped it...... bounce.....bounce.... SPLAT. The ONLY upside to all this was..... I never spilt a drop of beer from the full can I had in my left hand at the time.... (and it WAS...

I posted this on the thread about the neat t shirts Sams now has.... The admiral and I wore the new shirts yesterday at our bi-weekly dock party and we both received a lot of great raves...... Just want to make sure others see how good we are treated by Sams and the gang........ Re: Vintage...

I had my A/C scupper clogged by growth 2 weeks ago so just went over the side, took 10 mins to get all the stuff out and get back onboard. Something I usually have to do a few times each summer. It's also not uncommon to get a small or very minor cut from the barnicles from the dock and/or...

OK, I admit I am hooked on that show..... ( l like Sig best). Have also watched the version usijng the N.E. lobstermen, which isn't nearly as good as the crab fishermen... But now I am watching "Tuna Wranglers" on the Discovery Channel. This is a neat show and totally interesting on how...

Have a couple (Jackie and Ben) who will be leaving here to make their trip to the Tampa area in about 2 weeks. He's 33 and she's a bit younger.... They plan on going down to Key West before making the trip up the West coast and asked me what marinas they should stop at while cruising the East...

This is all meant in fun....... But as we all know how Randy's luck CAN BE.... http://break.com/index/boat-slams-into-bridge.html

I bought a quart of "marine strip" made by Restoration Technology as a friend of mine who works on boats told me I would be impressed. Cost was $18. It is made to clean everything from cushions, power cords and fenders, and anything in between. It is NOT a paint stripper. I told him he...

Last night I had dinner with Larry Kaplan (MicroKap) as he was here in town on business. We met at the River City Brewery about 8:30PM and were the last to leave the resturant. As in all cases when it comes to Hatt owners, he is a classy guy (OH, he also picked up the check) so if any of you...

OK guys (and gals), Have a couple who just bought a 35' Cruiser that I am attempting to teach how to drive. They plan on taking it to the west coast in a few weeks. They said they were just going to go across the state by means of Lake O, which I told them was closed at the moment... I...

OK, after all the great news I gave the past week, today the salon A/C unit's air flow is crummy again...... Hey, I have no problem letting it be known when something messes up... I'm a pro at that.... So now will have to back up and regroup.... "HAD to of been /hope I was" on the right track...

Saw this on BoaterEd site. It's long and I don't expect any Hatt. to be removed using this concept and can only imagine how much it had to cost. Good news is, it happened to a ski boat..... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5uqNCyS8qto

So I was working on the boat today (uh, and that is different from what other day....) and was moving the navagation lights up 9" to clear the air horns on the starboard side (and 3 existing antennas) and was almost done when I started to walk back to the cockpit to get a tube of caulk when I...
