I'd like to link the bottom of that hole in my pocket for every boater. :)
Problem with that I am still at the top of the hole and the bucks keep flowing down that tube. :(

OK Rich- now you're just being silly. Everyone knows that a hole dug in the ground goes to China. And that does seem to be where all our money has been swirling off to lately. :D

I vote for the one with a dodger .
But I would be just as happy with the topless one .
If space is a problem , the generic Tatoo could be removed .

If I had not been paying attention, I may really wonder what this forum is about :D

Then I would wonder what a generic tattoo is?

Bob, Guess I don't know neither. This past weekend a 26M with 5 people aboard went by me Mast Less at 10 Knots.
Made me smile as winds were 3-4 mph with my full sails up.
Next day after camping out of picnic Island we had 15 Knots gusting to 20. As we got past Shell Island hit 20 knots and gusting to 28knots.
As we approached the ramp that's exposed to waves for 1.5 miles with 3ft. seas.
There were at least 8 law enforcement boats blocking access to ramp.
Was told to go back and go thru main channel were 200 National Guards were doing some swim rescue and blocked off ramp.
After a 45 min. wait bouncing in 3-4 ft. waves I finally got to the ramp with 3ft. waves pounding the stearn.
Second time ever I didn't empty the ballast and good thing as no way a empty ballast boat would dock is those waves.
I am greatfull I was sober as every Coast Guard, police,National Guard,Sheriff were there on the Dock.
They all blocked traffic so I could haul my boat out and dismast. All were great of help!
