Now I do realize that I am far from normal but I figured I'd share this anyway. I had a dream last night that I had a rendezvous up here in Gods country. Most of the regular faces were in attendance, UV rolled in with a four door 3/4 ton pulling a 5th wheel camper, Mike was being mean, Cranston was ...

MarkS

A cut and paste from http://www.Bloodydecks.com regarding Renegade Mikes latest Tuna hunt. The bite is on in Cabo for Marlin from the arch to the Golden Gate and the Tuna bite is from San Jaime to the 95 spot and other notorious haunts as well. Just another reason for you guys to come play with us l...

MarkS

transfered from the old board. =================================================================================================================================== Just wanted to offer an invite to any of the faithful again to join in the Cabo Black & Green Charity Fishing Tournament. This year it wi...

MarkS

Yes very nice! How did you come up with the wheel cap and in such nice condition?

MarkS

I think this post and Bertramps post about no need for cleats are related.......

MarkS

Listen John the pleasure was all ours! You and Pam are joy to have around. Can't wait to do it again!! For some reason that $2.00 drink comment made me think of Bruce's line about having a $5.00 head buy a $5.00 helmet. Like its $2.00 radiator water from an old jeep. I would love to see some more fo...

MarkS

Harry thats funny! The wife saw me twiddling my thumbs and fidgeting like a whore in church and suggested I go out to the garge and break something.........

MarkS

Nice to have you back Patrick!

MarkS

This was just one of them, early on after Mara was originally diagnosed. I really have ahard time sharing this and sort of want to keep the rest for myself plus rereading this takes me back. This however was Vic in a nut shell the best that I knew him which wasn't even close to those who really did....

MarkS

Thanks Pat.

MarkS

With the passing of Vic this all feels sort of self serving and empty but it happened while a small contingent of the faithful gathered as friends having a great time. Plus I for one always enjoy seeing pics of others getting together and fishing and sharing quality time. We had a great time here an...

MarkS

First you make a roux.

MarkS

Simply your dad was a very nice man.

MarkS

Following seas UV. From myself and the Cranstons.

MarkS

Not Port Eads but Port Tustin......................

Couple of Walleye, of course Cranston caught the bigger one. Slow day on the pond but good friends and good times!

MarkS

Mikey,
John and Pam Cranston are at my home in Wisconsin right now and we saw this! He's cryin like a baby!

We were just talking about uncleVic and then this! How cool!

Nice touch amigo!!
Mark

MarkS

Although you shared this with me I had no idea of the gravity, on purpose I am sure. You were very supportive during this very dark time in my life, words cannot describe the respect. Go comfortable my friend, and if you could at that time, tell my daughter how much I love her. You are a class act V...

MarkS

Thats pretty cool Rawleigh! Shitty place to have to walk from though.......

MarkS

Sorry to hear this guys! loosing friends always sucks!!

RIP.

MarkS

I like that a lot!

MarkS

I had that same 390 hp 427 in a 1967 Camaro................God i miss that car!

MarkS

Peter, if you are looking to add light to the stairway and don't care what is happening outside (like hows the weather) these skylight tubes are awesome! I put one in the hall bath which had no window. The bride keeps reaching in the door to shut the light off, it's not on it's the light tube. http:...

MarkS

I was contemplating this all a few weeks ago and got a couple of great suggestions here as I was deciding on where to mount the chocks. You can remount the chocks so the end of the anchor is only an inch or two away from the hawse pipe and toss the rope, rode and all down in the bow hold. Just anoth...

MarkS

How fun is that!

MarkS

When repairing furniture we use colored powders and you just rub them over dark or damaged spots to change the finish color. Of course this is make-up and not removing the problem but quite honestly I don't think you will get those out short of carving the bad wood out and then filling it anyway wit...

MarkS

Looks good Harry!

MarkS

Watching the Saturday morning fishing line up and there was Flip and Jose selling Yeti coolers.

All I can say is hug the ones you love.

MarkS

John,
Just got my May copy of SWS and see nothing about Jose's passing. I should assume there will be some mention in the June edition?

Mark

MarkS

Thanks guys, all quality info!

MarkS

That is very cool.

MarkS

Cummins

MarkS

UV, what's B&H?

MarkS

For some reason I was under the impression that the rode wouldn't go down the hawed pipe! Bone head. Mine is all galvanized shackles and all. You are correct Walter, lots of room for all anchor tackle.

Beautiful guys, thanks

MarkS

I have a good friend in Mexico looking to rebuild a 33. He has found some 315's and is now looking for transmissions. My understanding is 1.5:1 is what he needs and he tells me he wants ZF's. Does anyone have a set laying around they want to part with? What is a fair price for said tranny's? Other p...

MarkS

I am mounting a new set of anchor chocks on the bow (the old ones were heisted off the boat by someone who apparently needed them more than i did before i purchased her, had old holes filled at time of refit so starting fresh) and was wondering a couple of things. Is there any advantage to specific ...

MarkS

That sucks! I think the first time I saw him was back when The Walkers Cay Cronicals" first was on the tube and Flip Pallot was fishing with him. Shortly after that he had is own show. I think it was tarpon in the Keys that he stripped to his skivies and dove in with rod and reel to avoid getting ta...

MarkS

I bought one at worst marine a year ago or so. Of course they are now made of all plass-teak.

MarkS

Will that be the sofa piece, the bedroom piece or the $hitter piece?

MarkS

Crazy how this stuff works! I tell the story above and today I answered the phone at work and the owner of that Donzi is on the other end. I had put motorized drapery in his lake home many years ago and they need some attention. After our conversation I asked about the boat. He said he still has it ...

MarkS

What? PBS not putting our military in a positive light? You gotta be $hitin me!!

MarkS

If you scroll down there is a model of a 17-20ft-ish scale replica of a Donzi. That exact boat with the exception of the color which is blue sat on a local lake. I had a friend who lived next door and as a young kid we used to drool over that boat sitting on the lift. And when the owner threw the sp...

MarkS

Natural selection pure and simple.

MarkS

Wood don't go soft now they will eat you alive! Call em pussys and spit once and a while.

MarkS

Me too! I'd wear it to church!

MarkS

John, When you come up in May I'll take you over to the range and you can shoot my Glock and a few other things I have that go "Bang" while your in town. If you are defending yourself in Freeport be careful where you aim! If you accidently snipe the hot neighbor lady accross the channel i'll be piss...

MarkS

I love the two opposed white rolled arm chairs in the lower left corner out on the ice!

Pure class Gert :)

MarkS

I ain't buying it Walter! I bet you are a hoot! Hell I'll even let you prove it by buying me a beer sometime before we both check out!

:)

MarkS

OK I'll say it..................................Madonna looks like an old baseball mit. Her moves would have been more limber if she made them from her "Hoveround"! I couldn't even hum along to any of that crap and I was in my 20's when she was popular! It feels like "Rocky II" or maybe "Rocky III" ...

MarkS

Navigating the Great Lakes or even some of the other large bodies of water I spend time on I feel very comfortable in almost every case. Dad taught me how to read a map early in life and blindfolded almost every time I can tell you were north is, internal compass. Throw in currents and tides and all...

Tom,
Thank you!
