Reading back through the posts, one other topic came up, boredom :shock: . This was a minor concern of mine but, here is my thinking :idea . The marina has WiFi and I have Net Flicks on demand :film . So I can watch movies. They have a floating, yes floating, pool too. That will be an...

Well, the bottom is painted, the boat is packed and ready to go across the bay. The weather this Saturday will decide whether we float across or drive across. Thanks to some other C-Brat help, if I have to drive across and launch in Portsmouth, the logistics from the boat ramp to the marina...

As we get closer, I need to tighten up the t-shirt idea if we are too place an order and get them in time. I have some o'seas travel between now and then, so I would like to see if this is feasible or not. Here is what I have for numbers now. So far no one has given me sizes. I only have 11...

That's cool!

You should see my thread on my crazy idea to save on commute costs. I am going to be attempting to live part time on my 16 cruiser for 7 months. Lots of pics in my album of the interior and what can be done, and I am going to post pics when I am set up and "residing" in Litl Tug. 16s are...

Oh, I do have one concern about this. Litl Tug is used to being one of the cutest, if not the cutest boat around. My slip mate is going to give Litl Tug some pretty stiff competition.

Wow! Thanks for the encouraging words. I have a unique work environment that I can do this. Being a military installation, clothing storage, lockers, showers etc is not an issue. Plus I have a big fridge at work too. I travel about a week a month so that cuts down the time. The plan is to...

Well, my 40 mile one way commute to work is eating me alive. Plus I have a big bridge toll. So my crazy idea, and I am past the point of no return on implementing it now, is that I will spend 3 to 4 nights a week on my boat. The marina costs for the 7 warm weather months are less than gas and...

Today we had a respite from the cold, snowy weather, so I finished installing a battery switch and voltage regulator, two new deep cycle batteries, and I cleaned the cabin interior and I polished the helm. Nice and shiny now! See pics of project in my album.

Seems to me that if you credit the source of the picture and you aren't making money off the post, than you are no different than a student writing a paper and footnoting copyrighted material. Most newspapers have a part on their website that says what constitute authorized use of their...

Having spent five long winters stationed in Michigan breaking ice, the thing that hit me about this, was that if I had that much money, that boat house sure wouldn't be someplace as cold as Charlevoix.

Don't forget to sign up under the events tab especially if you are interested in a cruise T shirt. I am using that as an eyeball estimate to see if we can do it economically. See the pattern back in the discussion or in my album. Trying to keep the cost to about $15-$17.

I was planning on spending Thurs night in dowtown Portsmouth, its free and there are lots of eateries in walking distance. If lots of others go to the marina, I will join for the party's sake.
