Now I see where the phrase " look after your boat and it will bring you home" comes from. Shame on you for letting it get that bad!

OK.... I have to confess! This is somewhat of a "troll post". After replacing the line and attempting to reinstall the CB, the CB bracket would not properly seat into the trunk. I used the old line to pad the CB as I gave it multiple "love taps" with a hammer trying to seat the bracket! I must be getting "punch drunk" from nearing completion of a very long list of tasks from a refit. BrianW

Anytime young man when a line is that bad, I will make sure you get a sip of moon shine as it will look good enough to use after feeling no pain. Rum also works.

Dave, I'd already used up my rum-induced 2-year extension two years ago! The rule is; you only get one booze extension per line! BrianW

... But Dave, I'm willing to experiment to see if I CARE less under the influence of your moonshine!

I can remember the time I took about 12 gallons to Hunter and distributed to friends. The plant mgr. called me into his office closing the door giving me a warning if the owner found out, I might not be a dealer anymore. Funny thing, I just left 7 gallons in the owner's office for one of his solo trips around the world is what I told that mgr. His mouth dropped and I walked out laughing.

Once falling out of a mast because the idiot owner had drilled a lot of holes below the spreaders which I was not paying attention to, The mast fell over causing me to fall several slips over. The horsepital wanted me to stay overnight and I said no as the doc was writing up pain meds. I told him to put the pad away as I said I will take peach brandy moonshine chased with mydol for pain. The nurses busted out laughing but it worked.
