    You figure out what you're repowering with? I've got a transom mount electric motor sitting in the garage that might work for you. Can send you a pic and specs tomorrow.

    1944, least we forget…

    Ex-FIL, no longer with us, was a navy coxwain piloting the troops ashore in a landing craft. Dodged fire headed in, hit the beach, dropped the ramp, and the soldiers ran ashore with several killed in the process. He went to back the boat off the beach, but it was stuck. He ended up going ashore...

    Monster Smallie

    And no nuclear stuff there, they just test hydrodynamics of hull designs.

    Member Appreciation Story (UPDATE)

    The Cooper, Wando, and all the creeks off the Intercoastal Waterway back behind Caper's and Bull Island used to be my home waters. Love those speckled trout, redfish, and flounder!

    The Empire Strikes Back

    That's the one. Also Barber's Death of Celilo Falls is another good one on the same subject. However Harden's book goes into the financial aspects of building the dams and who profited as a result. A really good read.

    The Empire Strikes Back

    I can't for the life of me come up with the title of the book I read a few years ago about the damming of the Columbia. I'll find it though and let you know. Not so much about the Snake, but more about the loss of Celilo Falls and the impact on the anadromous fish and native peoples. But...

    Got some whacked fish stories?

    From another forum on the NE coast....I've never forgotten this one posted by Haverodwilltravel: Back in July this year. Too much to drink the night before, and bad food. I'm driving from Weekapaug headed to Quonny. I get to the light and the gut starts talking to me REAL LOUD. Now I'm...

    Wanted Honda Element AWD

    We bought the AWD hybrid Sienna last year for my wife. Rear seats fold into the floor (agree it would be better if they came out completely and use that storage space). I removed the middle seats, but you have to install a resistor in the airbag connection once removed so that the computer...

    Thanks!

    Based on recommendations from many of you, I picked up the Ken Onion Work Sharp knife sharpener. While I can hone a knife edge to razor sharpness with whetstones, the amount of time and care it takes is just more than I'm willing to invest for all the knives we have. The Work Sharp sharpener...

    Might be time to get some work done…

    I hear you guys. Have to pick and choose at this point. Doc says I'm too young for the knee replacement yet, even though doc says it's a 75 year old knee in a 57 year old body. (Old skiing injury. Surgery and PT got me another 20 years on it though. Still, not looking forward to the next...

    Lots to learn there. We were down in the Wasco, OR area. And for those who know the park where we were, be advised they're switching to the reservation system on April 1st. No more first come first served. They are adding one additional campsite though. And talking to the rangers there, there...

    Might be time to get some work done…

    Bob, at 56.9 years old, I've been having right shoulder pain for about a year now. I find that putting down the single hand rod and sticking to the spey rod for a month or so helps. But, like you, I know that at some point, some work is going to need to be done. At this point it's a matter of...

    Water was high, fast, and muddy. Didn't even wet a line. Just enjoyed hiking the canyon and the ridge, sitting in the sun, a campfire, and some good food.
