I agree with all you guys. I'm the most gullible person around, I guess its because I dont lie and I just take what someone says as the truth. As a few of the people that know me, know that I'm just out for fun and frivolity. I guess it is appropriate that I have pit bulls as my chosen buddies, as I have their tenacity to see something through, I very rarely forget when someone has done me wrong as well. It took me 3 years once before I met one guy face to face and when i did I let him know what I thought of the crap he pulled in front of a few people.

Rob - I'm the same way. There is a breed of people out there that can lie to your face, cheat you, and steal out of your pocket, and somehow I think (I know) they believe thier own crap and lies. The sad thing is when honest good people get preyed on by them, and it seems to happen consistently in the marine business.

Over the years I have found out first hand (way too many times) that anybody that has to talk themselves up or "sell you" on them is bull**** and beware.

The man himself seemed to almost deal with the subject in a way in the past.

Although I am sure that these words would have been used in one of the other threads

Posts: 9,321 More distraction. Nice.

It seems like your plan is to keep your a$$ firmly planted in your chair and continue to pass yourself off as an experienced boater.

As has been said many times, that's the problem with the internet. People passing themselves off as something they're not. You're a prime example. People come here hoping to get solid advice. Then they run across guys like you that post comments so authoritatively that they appear to know what they're talking about. But in truth, all you have is opinions. Opinions that are based solely on things conjured up in your own mind. And even when confronted with the opportunity to actually spend time in something other than your Barcalounger, you can't be troubled. You're some "expert", aren't you?

You keep talking $hit. I'll keep pointing out that you're the quintessential keyboard boater.

Enjoy your view from the beach!
