    '83 Sea Nymph SC-170 Full Restoration

    The aluminum transom is awesome. The Moon sign (Mooneyes) brings back some fond memories too.

    1999 Crestliner Project

    Saw this on THT forums. It is stainless, but I would use aluminum if I were putting on my boat. It would be a pretty simple fabrication. Anyway, just tossing out options:

    Social Security Cost of Living Increase!?

    As I understand it, the cola adjustment is calculated based on recent CPI data. Haven't you all heard inflation is down? Problem is the current inflation rate has nothing to do with our current high prices for just about everything. Politicians forget to clarify that when they tout how well...

    Social Security Cost of Living Increase!?

    They will send notifications, not account info, via email. I think I did sign up for email notices.

    Trailer width question

    I have a similar situation with my current boat. It sits right above the fender height. I added wheel spacers to get a little more clearance. Knowing what I know now, even using side bunks, I wish I would have opted for a wider trailer. Just my two cents.

    Social Security Cost of Living Increase!?

    Got an email from SSN saying there will be a 2.5% COLA increase -- at least for many. I guess every little bit helps. Won't know exactly how much, if any, until early December I guess.

    '59 King Commander

    Looks great. What are those tabs welded on the back of the transom?

    Powering your home during power outages

    Me too. I know what I know. I know only some of the things I don't know.

    1999 Crestliner Project

    I have a thought about the down rigger box shown in your photo. In keeping with Still Afloat's thoughts about increasing the space from the transom, you could make the box smaller. Additionally you could make it higher to be even with the top of the gunnel. For added rigidity, you can tie it...

    New project

    Three things. Keep it light, keep it light, and keep it light! If you can ID the boat and find pics of the original, that would be a big step in bringing it back. On a 12' boat I personally would not go beyond adding back the bench seats.

    Princecraft Rant - Amarok Recall

    Four or five years ago there was a similar recall on Klamath Westcoasters, a 15' walk-thru design. The fix was adding two large foam filled boxes in the rear. Basically removed any cockpit space and people were pi$$ed. Not saying the plugs are a great fix, but I would take the plugs over what...

    LDUBS OK?

    I'm baaack! And dealing with jet lag. Wide awake this morning at 3 am. No rod holders. In fact, one of the "prohibited" items along with things like explosives, drugs, or firearms is fishing rods.

    LDUBS OK?

    Thanks for asking. Doing great. We are on a long out-of-country vacay. No fishing but I did watch a guy fishing from the bank in Cherbourgh France. I was going to offer advice but in the interest of international relations decided not to (haha). We are currently on our way to Malta on a...
