Since my memory is so freakin' bad, I set up an automatic payment with my bank that goes out every January to the Capt., that way I never forget! Thanks Capt. Pat! :-D

nestorpr

I plan to be there, hope everyone elso does too!

I agree with the low water/exploding gas theory. I work for a golf cart manufacturer and we see this one in a while. Overcharging COULD be the cause as this would dry out the batteries but a trickle charge would not do it UNLESS the charger is defective. Test the charger to ensure it's only supplyin...

It's no wonder they're called the Best Generation.

I agree with Walter, in the coming elections remove the incumbents and put new blood in OUR goverment. Can it get any worse?

nestorpr

Congratulations!!!

I had 2 blue tops in my boat for 3 years and they performed admirably, especially when they hadn't been used for a month or two, they still started the engine up with no hesitation. If you want you can use 2 yellow tops for starting and a blue top for house, but 3 blue tops would work just as well a...

They even work great on B25's! Here's ours from the late 70's:

What handkerchief? All Butters saw was a weird bush!!! :-D

Glad to see I'm not the only 50+ South Park fan!!!

Thank God for El NiÃ±o, it usually keeps the hurricanes away! As most people know, the Earth's temperature normally fluctuates from one extreme to the other every 11,000 years or so. We've been living in a time of very mild temperatures and the time for a change was due, about all humans have done i...

Happy Birthday!!

Otro Boricua buen mozo, felicidades!!! :-D

nestorpr

Jack, you're worse than me, ha! It was bad enough I posted that in the B25 forum, but here??!! That's just mean!! Just kidding. :-D

nestorpr

Thanks, I'll check them out. I agree, but I also don't want to pay too much for an aircraft quality job, those have to be perfect, I just want a nice restoration quality job. Hopefully these guys will do.

Anyone know of a good AND cost effective chrome plating shop in the Miami-Ft Lauderdale area? I just bought a set of Lee Sr. bases and poles and the bases need a good resurfacing job. The tubes are still shiny and serviceable but the rest of the fittings are slightly turning green so they need a com...

That IS excellent news, congrats UV! BTW, that's a hell of a trick!

A good used utility car from Club Car would serve you well, they come in electric or gas and you just can't beat the all aluminum frame, the only one in the market! All the others have painted steel frames and that's their weakness, they rust. Another option would be a used Club Car golf car with a ...

That was a great video! I think that B38 Brave Moppie had a hull step about 1/3 forward from the transom, or is that something else?

nestorpr

I am a .45 ACP fan from way back and can't say enough good things about it however, a while back a friend of mine gave me a little Beretta 70S .380 ACP that he didn't want in the house any longer and it's a sweetheart to shoot, also very compact and comfortable in the hand. With Hornady's new Critic...

nestorpr

Same here, hope they get better right away!

nestorpr

I'm in!

nestorpr

Our condolences!

nestorpr

Merry Christmas and a very Happy New Year to all, and be careful with all that show! :wink:

On the second day of Christmas my true love gave to me...

Hueso, those blue, choppy seas sure bring back a lot of memories! I may be in PR soon to see "La Vieja" so I'll let you know in case we can get together.

nestorpr

To me it looks like the hull from the racing hulls Bertram made in the 70's, long and sleek and with the fiberglassed "windshield" to boot. Maybe this guy made a mold from an original hull and made this hull from it. I used to have some pictures of them but not anymore.

nestorpr

I don't have first hand experience with Para guns but try AR15.com in the handgun section, you might find some good info there.

nestorpr

If you need any more shooting hardware or 5.56 ammo(I reload my own, 1000 rounds OK for you?) just let me know, I can send it ASAP!

nestorpr

Man, that cat sure looks TERRIFIED!! Anyway, good luck to y'all and please take losts of care, this thing is a monster. Here in Miami, we got just a passing glance (while it destroyed Cuba) and still had some trouble with power and debris flying around.

nestorpr

I agree with the rest, sell it with 2 options:

1. As is without the engines
2. As is with engines NOT installed (let the new owner worry about them)

The get a turn-key Bahia Mar or Cuddy Cabin and keep on fishing!

nestorpr

I am but I don't use it much.

We (Club Car golf & utility cars) have an electric utility car fitted with one for research purposes and it's working well. The main issue is where to get the fuel (hydrogen) for the cell as there are no hydrogen stations in the US yet.

nestorpr

Congratulations!! Will you get a new command? Keep them "squids" inline for us!! (From a retired "flyboy"!)

nestorpr

I think you meant that the composite drives are Duo-props and I agree, not necessary in twin apps, although I hear they do have a much better hole shot than single prop drives. The boat looks great, can't wait for fuel numbers to see if diesels still have an advantage over gas, I think they do even ...

nestorpr

Great work! Are those the 160's or 190's?

nestorpr

Hah!! Loved it!

nestorpr

I'm not that savvy on inboards so I have a question, I thought the shaft packing needed to be constantly wet or it would deteriorate. Wouldn't this happen on a boat out of the water for a long time or are the new shaft logs impervious to that?

nestorpr

I actually like it better than the FLL show due to the fact that everything I look for is in one place, the main convention center building. The big boats themselves are in another marina (the blowboats are in a separate marina and a different show called Strictly Sail so no need to go there) but th...

A B25 in the 25Bertram forum has them installed and he really likes them so take a gander at his posts, he's Eli.

AAH, Palominito, great camping spot (or at least it used to be). Congrats on the great looking boat, fish and family!

nestorpr

Beautiful Hueso! Were you around Icacos or is this somewhere else? Wish I could move back home and go boating in all my old haunts again!

nestorpr

Merry Christmas and a very happy and prosperous New Year to all!

Be very wary of that woman, she's 100 times worse than her husband! I heard about all their "escapades" in Arkansas while I lived in Kansas and then served under "Slick Willy" in the USAF, worst 8 years of my career, what a waste of human flesh! Anyway, I also received my letters from Martinez and o...

I join the group in this sad day and wish the family all the best in these trying times.

nestorpr

Thanks for the links, I just sent mine and informed a few friends about it!

nestorpr

Excellent idea, hope it pans out. I've heard that odd-cylinder engines (i.e. 3, 5, 7) are inherently vibration free, any plans on a 5 cylinder unit?

nestorpr

Andre, say hi to Mike for me and good luck!

nestorpr

Ditto Dave, Godspeed!

nestorpr

I'll be there on the weekend!

nestorpr

Happy b-day Capt!
