I have this problem on my Tundra. Both lights checked out on the trailer but when I hooked up, the left directional on the trailer doesn't work :cry Since I only use the trailer to launch/retrieve once a year I try to just make right turns :arrow: :lol:

It's kind of like buying a lottery ticket - the market crash ends when the price of stock is so compelling people's greed over takes their fear of losing. This is best reflected when Warren Buffet says be fearful when everybody's greedy and greedy when everybody's fearful. I reached that point...

My mechanic recommends every other season whether it needs it or not - it's pretty cheap insurance :thup

For us old guys - the AARP Eye Chart:

An Irishman, a Mexican and a Blonde Guy were doing construction work on scaffolding on the 20th floor of a building. They were eating lunch and the Irishman said, "Corned beef and cabbage! If I get corned beef and cabbage one more time for lunch, I'm going to jump off this building."...

This may work for you. I installed it on a car that repeatedly had a dead battery due to the AM/FM radio issue mentioned by Dr. Bob http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Battery- ... ht_500wt_0

Indeed, there are some opportunities. Anyone looking at paying a capital gains tax on the sale of an asset this year (an investment property, sale of a business or a stock) can reduce that tax to zero by selling some stock you've got a long term loss on that equals the taxable gain...

It's time to appreciate the inexpensive and simple/free things like this board and a cold beer :thup

A bit off topic but I'm wondering whether a C-Dory has ever been seen in a major motion picture? :?:

You're right. But it's kind of like riding a two wheel bike. Ay first you wonder how can I ever do this :embarrased and later it's what's the problem? :lol: Procedure: It's two steps up from the cockpit and hold on tight to the rails :thup

I'll second Tyboo's recommendation for Barkeeper's Friend. I don't know if my store just started stocking it or its new, but i just discovered they also make it as a liquid. So now I've got a bottle of liquid, kind of like "Soft Scrub" but better, on board. For the really stubborn stains...

The day after his wife disappeared in a kayaking accident, a Canadian man answered his door to find two grim-faced Mounties. "We're sorry sir, But we have some information about your wife," said one Mountie. "Tell me! Did you find her?" the anguished husband sobbed. The Mounties looked at...

Fred - Add me to the list. I'll have to upgrade my trailer - currently good for short distances at low speeds. Unless I buy or start another business, I've now got the time to see some sights and have some fun on the Retriever. I'll be cruising with the two retrievers so I'd be looking for pet...

I've had two Master padlocks in the past two years and I'm disappointed with both. My issue is salt water gets into the mechanism so it becomes impossible to get the key all the way into the keyhole let alone turn the key. I'm wondering whether this lock's keyhole is capped so salt water can't...

Thataway I've got one of those lights as well. They're stocked at West Marine. However it seems to hold a smaller charge. With the Everlite I can mount the detachable solar collector with some velcro between the window and curtain. That way, I can have all the curtains up during the day and...

Thanks for the tip Dr John. I've got the kicker running off the main tank(s). Those tanks are full of 100LL AvGas - never used a drop of the ethanol mixed junk. In mid October I'll try some HEET in one of the tanks and see how that "souped up" mix works. I'll post back on this thread around...

I'm in the water from early April until after the local boat parade when Santa arrives, around December 15th. Here are couple of local observations. There are very few pleasure boats still on the water after the first of November and, here on Cape Cod, the boat tow operator stops around...

While my municipal dock has power "available", we are prohibited from hooking up over night. To enhance security I wanted to be able to show a cabin light behind the curtains. I searched for a solar powered option and found the Everlite EL7. http://www.newlite.com/catpage/el7.html I've been...

I heard some merchants are making the most of the storm !! :lol: :lol: :lol:

Warren - I can't say I've purchased either. While I like the wiz bang nature of this new stuff, I couldn't justify buying it as I could with the original Sling Box. To recap, the original Sling Box is attached to your TV or DVR (like a TIVO) and to a fast internet connection. You download the...
