I've just got a little single engine 28' Nordic with a HP575.
Zuperman would probably use my boat for a yacht tender :rolleyes: .............................

Exact thing I do.

It's about time to replace my straps as well, the rachets are getting unfriendly.

Yes Waterfoul, if I had not tied the boat down with the rope, it likely would have fallen off the undersized trailer onto the washboard freeway.

I guess the boat rental company was glad they did not have to buy a whole new boat, even when I brought it back with a chunk out of the outdrive skeg!. <gg>

Hey Waterfoul,

Maybe you can donate your straps and chains to some of these folks who lost there boats off the trailer since I never see your boat in the water anymore.

Gotta give you a hard time.

Yes indeed, I am the friend of Big Daddy! My crew is in Grand Haven/Spring Lake most weekends during the summer. Haven't seen you in ages. ( or your boat ) :)

Rob and Waterfoul,
I do like my Nordic a lot. It's a newer step hull, and it now runs pretty good after a year's worth of tweaking.
It ran 76GPS when I bought it. I now have it running 85GPS with a few engine and rigging mods.
Here's a pic.
Regards,
Steve
