    Fortier 26

    Not Wellcraft related, so I put it here in OT. I just really like these boats. If I had lots of disposable income I'd really consider something like this: http://www.yachtworld.com/core/listing/boatFullDetails.jsp?boat_id=1510433&ybw=&units=Feet¤cy=USD&access=Public&listing_id=59909&url= or...

    Nearby sinking

    This happened about 2 miles from where I keep the PD.  I was heading to the marina (by car) and turned on my handheld VHF in time to hear the wrapping up of the rescues.  By the time I got on scene the boat was pretty much the way you see her here...

    JAWS as a romance

    2006 Iditarod

    Anybody here besides me follow the Iditarod? It is THE last great race. I've been addicted to it for years, and hope to volunteer for it someday (it is almost completely staffed by volunteers). Jeff King has claimed his fourth victory -- Cheers, Jeff! This is the latest from the ADN site. If...

    Boat show blues? Not here!

    A friend and I spent a few hours Saturday at the boat show in Savannah.  It was a combined in-water and indoor show at the convention center on the Savannah River.  I haven’t been to a boat show in many years, and went more out of curiosity than anything else. More than anything it confirmed to...

    Photobucket info

    Hey, all. Now that I have a speedier connection to the internets, I was thinking of signing up for a free photobucket account for pic posting. On the signup page they ask for some personal info, including first and last name. Being somewhat paranoid about personal information and security, I...

    SC record tuna?

    No, I didn't catch it. :( The Pipe Dream has been out of the water since before Christmas. We were considering launching her Sunday, but the windy, drizzly, foggy conditions were enough to delay us until next weekend. Yet these guys were 30 miles offshore fishing! :-[ However, I do know the...

    Public Service Announcement

    Police are warning all men who frequent clubs, parties and local pubs to be alert and stay cautious when offered a drink from any woman. Many females use a date rape drug on the market called "Beer." The drug is found in liquid form and is available anywhere. It comes in bottles, cans, or from...

    So long

    So long, until Oct. 1 I'll be up in the Boundary Waters area of Minnesota, fishing, hunting, canoeing and hiking. :) The Pipe Dream is on dry land in case any ugly tropical systems come toward SC in the next week. Tight lines everyone!

    High fuel price got you down?

    These folks don't worry about oil prices when it comes to boating! ;D http://knox.villagesoup.com/Sports/story.cfm?storyID=60571 It might be kinda difficult getting a V-20 up on plane with this engine, however.

    Squally Morning (long post)

    I noticed that the Pipe Dream wasn’t going quite as fast at a given RPM as it should have, so I planned to beach her this morning in order to give the bottom a good scrubbing. I checked the radar which showed showers but no thunderstorms moving through the area from the low pressure system to...

    2005 Hurricane Season

    It has arrived. :( Let's hope that it doesn't live up to its forecasted activity level, and that none of us gets hit by a strong one. Every year I come up with a new, and I hope better, plan for evacuation and recovery should it become necessary. Time to get cracking on this year's!

    Highlight photo

    Is there a way to change the Highlight For Album photo? I would like to make it a post refit photo instead of the current pre refit. 8)

    Refit update, fuel tank needed

    Hello all! The refit went well, after a few hiccups and difficulties keeping the work on track, and the boat looks beautiful. The Yamaha 200 hp HPDI is a wonder! I would like to post photos on the gallery -- can anyone tell me what I need to do? I have lots of digital pics, do I just attach them...

    Cosmetic repairs

    Hello, again! I recently asked for some advice on a new outboard for my 1983 V20 Steplift Cuddy. Well, since I am looking at making her run like new, I thought I would look into making her look like new, too. The hull is sound, but I was thinking of having new paint inside and out including...

    Repowering

    Hi. I am new to this board, but am so glad I found it. I have a 1983 V20 Steplift with a 1989 Evenrude 155 that's breathing its last. Yamahas are big in this area, and there are 3 dealers which I think is a plus for service or warranty issues. I am considering the 200 hp HPDI and the 200hp...
