What are the odds of Island Girl meeting the old Island Girl halfway around the world?

Tony-Murphy gauges? If so, they can be adjusted with a small allen wrench inserted in the center of the face of the gauge. You can raise/lower the point where the alarm goes off (where the moving needle hits the stationery "setting" arm.

That means it's not seized. You also said you were running at 20 kts when it suddenly stopped. Not ethanol sounding. Piece of crap in the carburetor? Possible. Easy check out. Take off the flame arrestor. Pump your throttle a few times while looking in the throat. Fuel coming through? Fuel line not ...

Tunawish- you get 32 mph out of a 3.0 in a 20 Bahia Mar?

The smile on the kid's face is as good as the fish! Congratulations!

I slowly come to the conclusion that I lived in the best of times. Fuel was cheap and there was no ethanol to destroy your tank and engines. I caught Bluefin, Mako, & Marlin 10 miles off the beach. Ran up to Swordfish and Great Whites and looked them in the eye. My 22 knot cruise was one of the fast...

Tony, I too thought it was a "stretch" 31.

Even as an age issue, a boat salesman HAS to have a "license" to legally take a potential buyer out on a boat. Charterboats are independent businesses, and in many cases it's the "old timers" who catch the fish. There's something wrong here that really burns me. When government can tell you you're t...

We need some more lie-ing doctors. Seems honesty is getting very expensive.

I'm on my 8th renewal. Cause me a problem and they can keep it, BUT given the "rights of privacy" documents we all keep getting, HOW did they find out you had a (resolved) problem?

In Memory Walter K

This is how we help small businesses. Tell me they do this to bus drivers, and other TWIC holders. Who passed on the info to them?

Harry- Have your friend call Shannon on her direct line 860-572-5341. She can give you the input you'll need. She works for Rybovitch. Walter

Joe-4BT's had a problem with injecter tips falling into the cylinders. Cummins acknowledged it was a flaw and provided updated injecters and made good on the damaged cylinders to those who had it happen. Make sure that what you are looking at have had that updating.

Dug- I have found that an artist of any kind that has any talent, does what he does with or without the aid of a budget. You just can't contain the gift. Budgets feed the marginals, and in many cases the wannabees. Half the successful musicians and artists I know either didn't go to schools, hated t...

Talk about bad luck! Ugh!

If not dubbed, they're pretty damned good!

And NO Photoshop!

OK Mark, you have to tell us about that one!

The man is selling Geaux Deep because of it!

Charlie-That's Jeff's cell phone number. He then asks you to call the desk at 631-477-2200 for booking.

Big Brother IS watching you...scary. So much for all those "Rights of Privacy" documents you sign at Doctor's offices and Hospitals.

Given no one is buying houses anyway, I could sure use an interest rate of some sort for my bank account.

Run, do not walk from any Bertram Gas powered boat that has had ethanol in it's tank that long. The only exception would be if you could get it for a price that allowed your budget to take a new tank, two new engines (don't even try to save the old ones), and new fuel lines (fill and vent, too). We ...

The only nuance I can think of is that if this rule is applied to the Coast Guard itself, most of us have not noticed that our Captain's "license" no longer says that. Your document now clearly states that you are a "U.S. Merchant Marine Officer". THAT may be the loophole they are now applying.

Many more memorable ones to come. Enjoy!

I really think it's illegal.

In Memory Walter K

Thank you! I get the exact same thing. I've been handling it by going back one page. Then when I log out, it does. Thought it was my computer.

I'll bet the newer ones weren't made in the USA.

It's a 31 Bertram, no matter what.

I have found that at Montauk, since I switched to Valvetech's fuel, I have no soot on my transom any more. Now that's diesel, but I expect there is a greater maintenance of tanks that sell it. My experience.

I would assume to be able to have a house battery that can be called upon in an emergency for either engine.

Is Tuna enforcement now a USCG/Homeland Security responsibility or are DEC guys on board? Also, what do you guys know about the "new" BMI requirement that took Geaux Deep's owner's Captai's license? See under Swap and Sell. Sounds unconstitutional to me.

August 5,6,7th. No problem. A phone call with a credit card number will guarantee a slip. Tell them you're with the Bertram 31 group. 10% discount on check out if you belong to Sea Tow. The Marina's # should be on page 1 of this thread. Walter

Uncle Vic- The ramifications of a ruling like this are monumental. Is a pilot supposed to be able to manually evacuate his plane? Can flight attendants physically haul passengers out emergency doors? Same goes for bus drivers, commercial fishermen, boat salesmen, ferry operators? You can't refuse a ...

In Memory Walter K

If they had a BMI requirement for some police departments there would be a lot less cops. This is outrageous! Put a man out of business because of his size? Where are the protesters on this one? Based on this older, skinny, captains can also lose their licenses? Encourage small businesses? Bullshit!

This is the "scientific input" NOAA keeps talking about? 30 years ago I had a mate who told me that giving information and tagging would eventually be used against us and become an asset to the commercial fisheries. Thought he was wrong...not any more!

In Memory Walter K

Forgive me, but what is BMI that the Coast Guard is unhappy about?

In Memory Walter K

Thanks Tom. I try to live by an old quote from George Washington. When writing a lengthy letter to a friend, he wrote, "if I had had more time I'd have written a shorter letter".

In Memory Walter K

If you're fly fishing, you want the 30-80 lb ones that will put on a show for you and are landable for tagging. Unlike Blue Sharks, I have found the Makos dart in and out of the slick rather than lazily swim through it. Our trick is to prep some hookless Mackerel as teasers. Put one out about 30-50 ...

400 Mako and several 250+ Threshers taken off Montauk not to mention Blue Sharks last weekend. The Mako was supposedly hooked at 1:30 pm and they didn't get back to the dock till 9:00 pm. Missed the tournament deadline (would have won). Sounds like light tackle to me. Those are your waters. Go to it!

Except when you're on your secret fishing hotspot.

If you have a Hydnautic system, look and/or feel under the reservoir unit to see if you have two approximately 1/2" nuts mounted one over the other or side by side under it. Those are the "bleeders". The rest is a two man job. One person turns the wheel while the the other "cracks" one bleeder nut o...

Now THAT's creative fishing!
