I reconfigured it but I went from the rear fuel tank, to a mid-forward one, sunk down as low as I could to the bottom of the hull. A below deck fuel tank would have been custom. Best deal I found on the 75hp merc I got was through basspro. Only difference between the 75hp and 90hp is an...
I must be doing it wrong. Really happy with my old boat I rebuilt and repowered.
My old boat came with an equally old 2-stroke johnny. It ran but was a pain to work on and dial in. I looked at buying a newer used motor but the prices were too close to just buying new. Ended up with a brand...
My "fish/ski" boat, perfect for the mountain lakes where I live. I rebuilt a 1979 Starcraft 160SS from the bare hull up during the covid shutdown, when supply chains were full and prices weren't inflated. Put a new 75hp Merc on it with a trolling plate. It's a brand "new" boat for a fraction...
I went from a 42oz, 20* survival rated kelty sleeping bag to a 24oz, 10* comfort rated hammock gear burrow quilt. Cost was worth is on sale at about $350. Also had to upgrade the sleeping pad to the new thermarest nxt or whatever its called for another $200.
New full setup weighs as much as...
Met my wife on a dating app. Have 2 kids now, going on 5 years of marriage.
Thank god Im off them now though. Out here you now have to question if they were always a woman...
Glad my wife doesnt hunt though, its my thing and I can have some me time doing it, or bring the older kid now...
Surface sh!??3rs.... the problem got real bad when they closed all the restrooms during covid. These sub-humans just couldnt even dig an inch or kick some duff over it.
Ran into an older gentleman hunter this year walking a forest road. He must have walked by my truck as it was parked...
Thats an awesome blue one! Still working on catching one of those. Lingcod and rockfish are highly underrated species for sport fishing, and are delicious!
Id be more worried about living next to the world's largest super volcano, which is past due for an eruption, than building a modern nuclear plant. Odds are neither would be a problem in my lifetime or multiple future generations either.
What about harnessing some power from volcanic activity...
I remember snowboarding down the face of KT-22 at Squaw Valley when I was a young teen, listening to a live small venue concert of pennywise playing at the bottom of the mountain. Rode right up to edge of the mosh pit, kicked off my board and joined in. Some things in life you never forget.
Careful where you hunt near tahoe. There are firearm restrictions in some areas of the forest. As far as up high goes, there are deer up there, but not near as many as you find in the lower foothills. High country in the OTC sierra units, especially d3-5, is a very hard hunt. Beautiful, but...
Not looking back through the thread, but whoever suggested the brooks adrenaline gts 22, thank you. Great shoes.
Still checking in at 190lbs. Not "working out" right now because Im building a 10'x10' wood shed, moving wood/lumber/cement around, and helping a neighbor move. Whole body is...
