    Marinaut production

    I am sorry I missed the boat show also. See That’s Life “oldgrowth” for the reason. I don’t want to hijack this thread. Dave www.marinautboats.com

    Marinaut production

    Leo – I can assure you he is home. I talked to him last week and he is still building boats. Unlike the other boats being built today, the Marinaut is built individually for each customer and Les is personally involved in the building process for each boat. This has kept him busier than usuall...

    The Cruising Adventures of Wild Blue and crew...

    Darn it Jim – I wish I knew about this earlier. I am about 10 to 12 miles as the crow flies, 26 miles by road from Rufus. Just the other side of the Columbia River and a little West at Gooseneck, Washington. Sure would like to see you and Joan again. Gooseneck is in the middle of nowhere and my...

    01/27 - 01/29 - Seattle boat show and C-Brat Gathering

    I have a problem and will not be able to make this gathering for anything except maybe for a few hours Saturday evening. The snow storm on the 17th of this month dumped 18 to 20 inches of snow on me then we had an ice storm the following day. Been without power since then and may not have it...

    Audio Book recommendations

    I will second Brent’s suggestion that you try Audible especially if you are more than just an occasional listener. It is much cheaper than using iTunes. If you join and watch their promotions you can save 50 to 70% of what it will cost from iTunes. Dave www.marinautboats.com

    Killer Whale eats boy???

    Brent – use Windows Media Player, not Movie Maker. Media Player comes with the windows operating system. If it is not installed on your computer, go here and download it. Its free. Windows Media Player The latest version is version 12. This is what you should be using if your operating system...

    Killer Whale eats boy???

    You don’t need special software to view the video a frame at a time, if you have Windows Media Player (included in the Windows operating system). When the video starts, stop it, then right click on the video. A popup menu will appear. Move your mouse over Enhancements on the popup menu and...

    Killer Whale eats boy???

    I know it is false. What I wanted to know is what in the video can you see that tells you it is false. Forget the caption at the end of the video, most of us don't speak or read Spanish so forget that part. We know they overlaid two videos, but what can you see that makes it obvious that it is...

    Killer Whale eats boy???

    The link if you can view wmv videos. Killer Whale If you have an apple product that will not play a wmv videos, use this link. It is three times as large so will be three times as slow starting. Killer Whale Is it real? I have already made up my mind. For those of you that think it is not real...

    Early March Fishermans Terminal gathering (any interest)

    Fred – I am up for it as long as we don’t have gale force winds. Don’t want to drive but would be very happy to run up there by boat from Olympia. Thank you for putting on this gathering. It had been getting kind of slim for PNW gatherings the last couple of years. Dave www.marinautboats.com

    Ethanol myths clarified per Boat U.S.

    Ethanol has about 67% of the energy of regular gas. Even if it did not cause problems to small engines, older cars or marine applications, why would a rational person want it added to regular gas? Dave www.marinautboats.com

    wtf is up with this 30 min post edit limit? I need at least

    Come on you guys, don’t you think you are being a little rough on boscoj. I can relate to him. Sometimes I miss understanding how something works, get frustrated and send an email or make a phone call and let my frustration sound through. He did apologize as soon as he realized his mistake and I...

    Audio Book recommendations

    BrentB posted a link on another thread for a free audio book by Tom Clancy. I don’t know if the book is good but it was free so I will find out. I had listened to another book, Red Storm Rising by Tom Clancy and liked it so maybe this will be good also. His post gave me an idea that maybe we...

    So I finally got an ipad2

    Charlie – I know just how you feel. I have been stuck with Hughes or Wildblue since 1995. In 1995 it was great but now Satellite internet sucks. I have been researching the MiFi connection through Verizon. I have AT&T cell but do not get it at home and even offered AT&T a site on a hill on the...

    So I finally got an ipad2

    Brent – thanks for the link. I listened to Red Storm Rising by Tom Clancy and really liked it. This will give me a chance to listen to another of his books without having to pay for it. Chances are I will be getting more of his audio books if this one is as good as Red Storm Rising. Dave...

    01/27 - 01/29 - Seattle boat show and C-Brat Gathering

    Pat - I would like very much to be included in the Taproom event but I am not sure I will be able to make it. I will be helping Les with the Marinaut display at the boat show and we don't know our schedule at this time. So don't count me in unless I get back to you saying I can make it. Thank...

    Current app?

    Warren – Navimatics web site is here. http://navimatics.com/nav4iphone.aspx I don’t know if you can download the app from their site but it is available in iTunes. Active Captains integrates with the app so you have charts, maps and aerials with it. Dave www.marinautboats.com

    Complete Overhaul 22-Cruiser: Some Opinions/Questions/Advice

    Miles – I am like you. When I want something different, I almost always do it. I would replace the old two stroke engine on your boat, but that being said, you should not rush into buying a four stroke engine right now. Take your time and find a good deal like you did with this boat. I know the...

    Jim – I have a 2001 BF40A/50A Owner’s Manual. It is a PDF version. You can read it on your computer and print the pages you need to refer to when at the engine. It has 118 pages. I can email it to you. It is 3.18meg in size so you will need an email account that will allow that size of a...
