I sure hope this big butt fad passes soon. This is America not Brazil.

I'd add a small 12V battery, micro switch and airbag. Put it about 20' from the pool.

Ha! Just the other day I saw a Honda wave runner with a Rotax hanging off the back. NOT

I woke up at 02:30 and saw stars so out I went. The weather was supposed to be severe storms but that didn't pan out. This was the first decent few hours for observing in over a week. Here's a picture of the galaxy Andromeda.

Dang Fish. Glad to hear you got out of that mess.

In my front yard

Terrible for loading our ATVs

That or just throw it back.

What is this fish? Caught it on a Crawler in the Tuscarawas river on 4#.

I'll get the band-aids and have 911 on hold.

Just another reason to have a big cow catcher bumper on my truck

My knees hurt just looking at that

The party of free ice cream.

BBB stands for Big Brazilian Butts.

I stopped listening to Siri years ago. Me: Siri, where's the nearest gun shop. Siri: Clueless. Me: Siri, you are useless. Siri: You are certainly entitled to your opinion. BTW, the gun shop I wanted to go to was only a few miles away

What's this I'm hearing about Ford jumping in the rainbow bandwagon? Reminds me of Larry the Cable Guy talking about the Dixie Chicks badmouthing George Bush. "Like going into a trailer park and yelling WALMART SUCKS.

Cool! Love the sound too

Our first boat was a 14' wooden SeaKing with the 35 Elgin. Dad got it for a song since it was singed pretty bad in a barn fire. After restoring it we got a couple good years before the lower unit took a dump. Dad found a 28 HP at Sears in the fall of 1963 on sale. Was $399 marked down to 199. This Elgin as made by Scott McCullough. Maybe 10 years later the neighbor had a Glastron 156 Tri hull with a Chrysler 55 for sale. Dad bought it and on the first day out the engine ran lean and scuffed a cylinder. Found out the dealership that worked on it didn't put the main bearing retainer pin in and the bearing outer rotated in the crankcase allowing play and air to leak around the seal. Dad still had the old 35 West Bend with the bad lower unit so we took the 35 powerhead and put it on the 55. We figured out that the problem with the Chrysler lower units was the seal behind the prop would get chewed up if the got the ski rope wrapped around the prop. Dad made a spacer at work to prevent that. I ended up finding another 55 with a bad lower unit for $125 and put that back on the boat

Found a picture.

My Dad's first boat had a 35HP Elgin (Sears) made by West Bend (Sold to Chrysler). The fiberglass hood had 56 Chevy fins. It did have a novel key lockout that restricted the throttle allowing the motor to be used on lake requiring lower HP limits. The lower unit was the same for 35~55. Good motor but loud and a gas hog.

Send some of that rain my way, please.
