    Outerlimits Powerboats founder dies after race crash

    This is just sad. I have seen the video several times and it is sickening to watch. I love fast boats but, will never get in a CAT... They're evil. Gods speed Mike.

    Apparently, I'm not cured....

    I don't know whether I should be happy or sad... My little o/b Greavette deal went south. I packed up the canoe and the guitar then drove 2.5 hours to get there. The other party had decided he did not like the canoe...so, the deal fell flat. He tried to spin me into leaving cash but I didn't...

    Pics if the new family sedan

    Just ONE boat? C'mon... they're like "Doritos", "you can't have just one"! :)

    Need a little advice!

    Not any real guesses.... sorry. I don't know the houseboat market. What I can tell you is that boats are not selling so, it's a buyers market. Something as big as that takes up space so, instead of a price I'll share a strategy... Start low. Like stealing it low. You just may be surprised...

    I just have a small Fender amp... good enough for a few "Power Chords" whenever I finish a project. :)

    Need a little advice!

    IMHO, that would seem a little steep for this boat. It could cost a small fortune (or a large one) just to get it running and safe let alone making it comfortable and useable. engine, fuel system, wiring, pumps, gauges, steering, charging system etc.... Then lights, paint trim and the rest. Any...

    I'm not a guitar player... I just like building them ! Well, I think the new addition will be a factory-exact restoration for the boat shows as there's really not much to do except clean, paint & varnish. Well, I'll need to add a 1961 35 - 45 HP outboard.

    Apparently, I'm not cured....

    I just happened by this little 15' Greavette outboard... It's just like the first real boat (read not an aluminum fishing boat with a 9.9hp) I was ever in, and it's in fantastic shape. Now, I'm a Greavette guy anyways. Not usually an o/b man but, I have not seen one of these 15.5' boats in over...

    TOTAL NOOB! (advice)

    That belongs right up there with the "Tales from the boat ramp" video! Man, we could get rich :)

    the end is near.... maybe

    That is sort of the point. NOW anything 25 years or older (wood or fiberglass) is considered a classic.

    the end is near.... maybe

    This year (2014) the Antique and Classic Boat Society (ACBS) have made a distinct change in their rules for fiberglass boats. This weekend, at the center of wood boats in North America (Clayton NY), a fiberglass Chris Craft XK19 has just won "best of show" at this, most prestigious antique boat...

    Malibu Boats offers preview of new models

    Funny, we only see a few Malibu boats around here. Mastercraft and Nautique seem to control the market in Muskoka. Muskoka is one of the premier locations for waterskiing in North America.

    Picked up a rare jet

    Keep us posted here!! That is a very cool and unique boat. Y'know, the ACBS just changed their rules to let "Contemporary Classics" compete in the antique boat shows...

    Quick tip

    The little snap chain for my ignition key "floatie" kept easily unsnapping... So, first I stole a new chain from the nail clippers in my wife's car glovebox. (replaced it with the defective chain so she'll never know). Then after re-installing the floatie and ignition key I used a length...
