New to the board.
 
Hello all.
I am new to the board and wnted to introduce myself..
I frequent other boating boards so you may already reecognize the name.
I have a 1988 Mirage Intruder..22 ft.. 350 roller motor, edlebrock intake and carb.. boat is in decent condition.. I am somewhat new to this type of power boat.. family always had cruisers.. hiting 55 mph is alot different than being 5 ft off the water. trying to plane a 30 ft 7500lb behemoth..

Anyways.. Cheers for now..
Here's a pic of my "Brat".

Welcome aboard. As a fairly new member myself, I'll say, you'll find a lot of great info without all the attitude of some other sites.

Welcome . Good to see some more boaters from the great white north . 2007 must have been one of the best boating seasons ever . Now that it's over what sports do you spend your winter months doing ?

Welcome ot OSO. Looks like you are out of Barrie? I run Simcoe and Couch often. Family place on Garnet Island north of the narrows.

Be sure to check out the great lakes and Canada forum. Lots of us hosers here.



PS, Bagger, this season sucked. Maybe because its the first time in over 20 years I had no boat in the water. :)

Next season will be better for sure.

Thats a good one.. although there are some freaky sites out there with lots oif children.. I have been lucky on the boating sites I have joined as of late.
Thanks for the welcome..

:ernaehrung004:

Von Bongo 10-17-2007 07:33 PM

Welcome.. I was just remembering the good old days when you joined you were supposed to send the other members $1 and also post a picture of your girlfriend.:p

Intruder88 10-17-2007 08:11 PM

yea.. that was me.. I did send them the money.. and a pic..they asked for more money :cool-smiley-011:and asked me to leave..said the last time they seen a face like that it had a hook in it..

TexomaPowerboater 10-17-2007 09:28 PM

LOL - welcome to OSO. I can relate to the change in boats. Its like learning how to drive all over again.

bouyhunter 10-17-2007 09:52 PM

Welcome to OSO - as Strip said, welcome to the circus.
Actually, this site is the most informitive site I've found, and I've made some great friends here. But, there is plenty of wildness, and weirdness ( remember Ratman and his postings in UC...)
The next thing you need to do is pony up a couple $$ for a real membership, (I'm not advertising, or promoting) but you are missing 3/4 of the site being only registered. It took me a year lurking before I bought in, but it is well worth it. The show here never ends...

Intruder88 10-18-2007 05:30 PM

so do I make my cheque payable to " boyhunter" cause that will look funny on my cheque at the bank...
:p

bouyhunter 10-18-2007 05:50 PM

Having trouble reading there partner? - bouy.
If that's your post number 4, and your attitude, phuck off, and keep your "cheque" - you won't be welcome here long.

Intruder88 10-19-2007 07:18 PM

Wow.. no jokes allowed..:Whatever: I guess I missed that posting...

Ill make you a deal.. as we have got off on the wrong foot..how about we keep some silience between us..

Remember there are no kids here..

I currently support 16 sites.. 14 being in North America and 2 being over seas..

As I rely on tips ad tricks from this site.. I too will offer help when I can.. I do not need some BOUY hunter peeing on my cornflakes..
I think more time could have passed before trying to hit up a new member for money.. maybe wait at least a day next time...

You didn't read very well, I mentioned that I was not advertising, or promoting, But, I was giving you a suggestion to be a paying member, because as only being registered, you are missing quite a bit.
Jokes are certainly allowed, but, before you throw out a dig at someone, get to know them. I have a sense of humor, and I like to cut-it-up on the board here just like many of the other guys. But, get to know them first.
I could have attacked your name and posted a picture of a sexual device named "the Intruder" - instead, I welcomed you to the site, and tried to enlighten you to what you are missing.
I didn't see much humor in a complete stranger that I'm welcoming and trying to help/guide taking a shot at me.

Intruder88 10-19-2007 07:46 PM

so much for silience between us...

Unless you are 13 yrs old.. you must see that the internet is not a protected devise.. no shot was made at you.. it was a comment regarding a name.. a nick name at that.. It had nothing to do with you..
It like MCdonalds.. ever had a mac attack.. does that mean you were goign to attack Ronald.. no... it is a remark aimed at a phrase......OK OK I don't know where I was going with that.... now I am hungry thanks..

How would you know that there was a sexual devise named "Intruder"... did you just use your imagination.. so did I.... I guess I shoudl have bougth you dinner and got to know you first before I did that.. thats what...
ok.. lets go to dinner.. do you like Mcdonalds..
now after reading this.. that is 3 minutes you will never get back..

Intruder88 10-19-2007 07:48 PM

I don't want this to go back and fourth.. just say your sorry and we can move on..:ernaehrung004:

And just what should I be sorry for - you trying a lame attempt at making a crack at my name?

You tire me, this is a waste of my time...

It's a wonder why I try to welcome "members", and assist in their questions.

Intruder = Big Scotty???
It "is" that time of year...

Intruder88 10-20-2007 11:34 AM

I was joking... holly molly..
Talk about 10 dollars of adrenalin on a 10 cent problem...
I said three posts ago.. to keep some silence between us..
Lets call it over right now..:nhl_fight::nhl_fight:

So tell me.. what kind of boat do you cruise in.. see this is me trying to get to know ya..

This Intruder guy is funny......

After the menusha going on over in the Apache money thread the banter on this one made me laugh!

Welcome to the board!

spectras only 10-20-2007 11:41 PM

Intruder , you had a much smoother welcoming party over at Speedwake , eh . So how's your crappy Mirage with the bellows issue [ J/K , this is Mirage257 from SW ] ? Did you check your distributor yet ?

Intruder88 10-22-2007 04:49 AM

Hey Mirage 257.. nice to see a familar face...

The boat comes out today.. winterizing, and an outdrive going over..will replace u joints, gimble bearings, and bellows.. oh and an impeller.. plus check alignment and real seal er up...I figure better safe than sorry..I am goign to take down all serial numbrs and pot to see just what outdrive I have..
Cheers.
