I noticed very quickly that there wasn't ANY fighting or insults and even when opinions conflicted the discussion was still clean and without personal attacks..... What I didn't catch right away was that this group really DOES treat each other like family..... Someone's truck breaks down and we all put out heads together to figure out the repair... Someone needs a sounding board to help deal with a painful time in life, the folks here are right on point...... Some unnamed person does something REALLY stupid and ends up laid up and feeling sorry for himself, Nothing here except sound advice and kind words of support!


I too am very proud to know you guys!
I have loved boats since I was 5 years old. The sound of water on the hull. The motion of the boat on water. The feel of the boat as it hits the waves … It’s like watching water run down a river, I could watch it all day. Just to float on a boat on a hot summer’s day, even if it’s at dock… I just love boats and boasting…

I think you all feel the same way..
