And I added another OSO member I have met in real life to the log book today, Talked boats, checked out boats, offered to buy him lunch... Roads were an icey freaking mess and he was traveling, offered him a place to stay if he wanted to wait out the weather. Offering a brother boater safe harbor in a storm, food and srink, thats what OSO is.... Or is supposed to be,

I don’t use FB.

This site needs to shrink. Too many sub forums with no activity. I have to go to about 7 different locations to look for posts. It needs to be streamlined.

Also, I see lots of big power in poker runners, I’d like to read about those build ups.

Just had an idea. Sticky an engine build and dynos thread. Would be a good refence.

But for the past few years, maybe more, its been boring...all the boats look the same. Nothing exciting is posted anymore.
And the new Cig AMG...seriously? That's all they got nowadays?
Same old design, different colors.
Here's an idea before you go bankrupt, come out with something cool, besides paint! Build something awesome again. Get us fired up and talking.

you have only been a member for 4 years. you have NO idea of when this site used to be exiting. It died the day Steve sold the site

While there is some truth to that I believe a lot more of it came from the fact the site sold less than TEN DAYS before the financial markets took the first hard hit. The site and the sport have only marginally recovered.

And I do my best to remain the cheerleader and onsite rep at lots of events.
