Getting on with boat re-build

[Lightningx]

I guess the upshot of all this, is, some of us are under the thumb !.
I make no apologies for my extreme sexism, with regard to my boat's resting place !
My priorities are right, I wear the pants in my marriage ! " I AM MAN ".
However fellow members, there appears to be someone amongst us, that is completely wife smacked ! and have resorted to wearing the apron at home.
But here's the thing my fellow "Blokes"
There is those amongst us, that would dare to photo shot my extreme statement, of putting the wife out side under a cover first !
Then use the said photo shot, of the said post in question, with the "threat" and the word "bribe" used. !
I shall not name this "said person" who has obviously transgressed to the feminine side and is obviously a very dangerous person to tangle with !
My wife has a black belt in verbal karate, I now admit, I'm in charge when she sais I am
HaHaHa ( cant find where those damn emogies are !)

Hey Anth,
My original stalwart, or " brick" was dislodged in the middle of port Phillip bay a few years back, by a "p****" of a mate,
That had decided he had had enough of not being able to contact me or the fact I thought a App, was short for a piece of fruit !
I was honestly Guttered ! he was far to big to hit, as I saw it on a glassed out day, sink, to forever be a local seals " play thing "

And because I can :fish22: must admit, i'm now like a kid in a candy store with those Emogie thingies now.

I suppose it's pretty obvious my boat's not back yet, other wise the topic would be about hard core boat fit outs !
The 27th of may was the set date, but somehow me thinks a date in June sometime is more realistic.
Since my previous thread was demolished by my photo's thru the old photo bucket being hyjacked and deleted,
I'll keep with this one. Especially now with my new, U-bute computor, where all my new photo's will be stored.
Totally off topic, but here's whats been keeping me busy while waiting for the boat
Ok, cant seem to post a photo, sais file to big, maybe the actual photo size ?

Opti is a brilliant motor except for the noise, the 6 cylinders are louder than old school 2 strokes.

Yamaha and zuk 2 strokes were always a bit nicer and quiter than Evinrude/Johnson and Mercs.

But nothing will ever beat the sound and smell of a 135hp+ V6 black max Mercury on its first start in 3 weeks at 4am. That eye watering gorgeous cloud of blue smoke, that deep rumble and spitting sound out of the exhaust, that horrifically violent shake, the roar of thunder that travelled for miles as the throttle was smashed to sunset.

They were never the same once they dropped that time honoured box shape

Yet it was still probably quieter than an opti.

I wouldn't say quieter, just a different more powerful sounding note. We need more black maxs running around.

Random google pic for nostalgia sake

He's a p****, not a mate! That thing would have ended up becoming an antique and paid for the next boat! Friends should love you for who you are.. one eye.. one leg.. a brick of a phone!

How i keep my photos nice and safe is put them on a hard drive. Plug it into your computer, transfer them on there and even if your computer crashes as they frequently like to do you will always have them stored safely on the device. This also keeps your computer freed up so it works more efficiently.

The forum has a size limit for photos. Usually a good quality photo of a phone or camera is way to big. What i do is open the photo with paint. Click the resize button in the top left corner, it will give you the option of resizing by pixels or percentage, I use percentage, starting at 100 you can put in 25 which will make the photo 25 percent the size it was. This usually is small enough for uploading. Save the photo as it is and your ready to upload photos like a pro!

Your U-beaut computer is only an Intel 486 system :tongue: I know you have jump a few upgrade from your old Intel 286 These are DOS operating systems so won't be able to upload your pics at all.

I have found this Utuber clip to help you speed up with modern day technology concepts and jargons - hope it will help
