Some great Tales here , told by a Great Tale Teller.
Recently informed of this new wealth of History, and what a great read.
No Disrespect to OSO by posting this link , they have offered me a ton of laughs and a wealth of knowledge since I stumbled upon this site 14 years ago.
Be prepared to waste the better part of a day . http://www.***************.com/category/brownies-bites/

While hardly an esteemed or valuable member here , this is the type of crap that led me to not reup , along with the stupid ads at the top of each page

somehow I live in Naples Florida but I am marooned in Grand Rapids Michigan this winter.
Got to attend the Devos Hall boat show though this year.
More pontoons and wakeboard boats than I knew could ever be dreamed up..

Love the stories but still waiting on something more then "Billy Wishnick fronted me enough money to start Nova Marine" about my little slice of history sitting in my driveway sucking the life out of my retirement savings.

Now, having said that, I interact with Brad regularly and think he promotes his site how he sees fit. We speak at nearly every event we attend together and sometimes in between. I have no ill will and hope all the sites survive long enough for the Facebook/ADD crowds to realize the benefits of a centralized forum that can be easily searched, used and understood.
