    '86 Sea Sprite 18' i/o. Started it up last week in the yard, hasn't been in the water since 2010 but hoping next week to get it out and see if it still floats.

    What constitutes a boat? I own a 10' flat bottom that I use for strip pit fishing. Dont enjoy just playing on the water.

    "Appetizer", our Ericson 35, was launched last week. Nothing leaked and the engine ran great. The mast went up on Friday and sails on Sunday. If it wasn't going to be 100 degrees today, I'd be sailing. I decided to go to the range for a little cool shooting instead. She's an old lady but a great sailer.

    1984 16' Mirrocraft with a 40HP Johnson is my weapon of choice against those evil finned menaces. Easy enough to load/unload by myself and big enough to seat 4 comfortably. Brother just got me a new fish finder so we may just have to take 'er out on Sunday.

    'I believe that banking institutions are more dangerous to our liberties than standing armies. If the American people ever allow private banks to control the issue of their currency, first by inflation, then by deflation, the banks and corporations that will grow up around [the banks] will deprive the people of all property until their children wake-up homeless on the continent their fathers conquered. The issuing power should be taken from the banks and restored to the people, to whom it properly belongs.' Thomas Jefferson
