Re: Boating grounds bucket list?
Cableguy Greg said:I would like to do the Great Loop when I retire. Before retirement, I want to make the crossing to the Bahamas and explore the Keys.
While I've not made it to the Bahamas I'd love to check them out. I can tell you first hand the keys are a place one could explore for years before getting bored. Before I was blessed with child I visited Jamaica and Cancun Mexico twice. If you can stand the heat in the Caribbean its hard to find a better place to spend your days. You'll find plenty of Steelers and pens fans on the islands.

Re: What did you do to your boat today
Fixed some good sized dents in my stainless windlass surround. Disassembled it and took a dent hammer & dolly to it. Came out real good. Sanded & polished.
Old anchor had punched in a half inch divot in the top of it, also chain had gotten wedged & bent it on the side as well.

Re: Sad Time of Year
It's funny how that picture does make your swim platform look HUGE! Yes, it is very large, but it makes it look like it's a third of your LOA! Crazy that I will be using the boat longer than @LaRea ! We had a nice anchorage this past weekend. Two 400's and a 420!

Re: Off topic: Rinker owners who grill!
Although it's Canadian Thanksgiving we already had our Turkey dinner yesterday since our daughter worked today. So today it's Traeger 3-2-1 ribs with 3 bean salad, Mac'n'Cheese and baked beans. All home made except the canned beans. The Mac'n'Cheese had a Panko crust with Pancetta topping. Ribs were dry rubbed and sat for 24 hours with brown sugar, dry mustard, cumin, paprika, chili powder, cayenne, onion powder, dried garlic, ground pepper and a touch of Chinese 5 spice. Can't beat the Traeger, or as @randy56 calls it the "pellet pooper". That's what we call it now. I always pull the membrane from the underside of the ribs. But these came from Costco and they had already done it.

Re: Dash Panel Lights
Yup! Only took me two seasons to figure out that one that the nav/anc switch had to be on for that dimmer switch to also work!LaRea said:
When the lights are on, press the switch up and hold to make the helm lights brighter. Press down and hold to make them dimmer.
