Sure, but your worm farm stays in KY

Pulled the trigger on a new (used) boat on Friday.

2000 Sea Ray 410 Express Cruiser.

Length:  45'-6"

Beam:  13'-10"

Weight:  21,000 lbs

Twin Mercruiser 454 Mag MPI Horizon motors, 380 HP each

Comes with it's own tow behind gas pump

Have to get through a sea trial and complete survey.  If all goes well, she'll be buffed and bottom painted and back in the water by the second week in May.

Needs new canvas and a a couple of cushions that need some attention.  Other than that she is in great shape for a 23 year old boat.

Need to come up with a name for it.  Any suggestions?

If anyone is interested in a 2012 Larson Cabrio 857 we should have one for sale soon!

Fantastic @SGTSmeg looks like y'all are having a great time!

We'll have to get you and Colleen out sometime.

Actually headed out at noon today to look at a different boat.  Considering moving up to a larger, older boat.

We'll see.....

This is @Timmah!'s favorite coffee

@RobMc WARNING SEVERAL FISH WERE HARMED IN THE MAKING OF THIS POST!
The lake I’m interested in opens May1 st every year! That’s damn cold but can produce some nice Brown trout and Landlocked Atlantic Salmon. 
last years May1 & 2 catch!

 

Wayne I have always found Rainbow Trout to be very 'fishy' to the taste.  Is it the way it has been prepared?  Or perhaps not so fresh?  

I do love Salmon!

@PHUCKITMAN so glad to hear you're back home and feeling a bit better!  

So Let It Ride!

Looks like your typical West Virginia Family Tree walking across the parking lot.  No offence to West Virginia.....

And Piglo?

Perhaps.  @piglo is more of a  MOPAR guy I think....  

This is going to give @ANGU5 a chubbie

I can't help you with @Timmah!'s cheesy bread.

But can I offer you some Smegma?

Positive vibes for Pman!

Are you related to @Sharpe, he likes to do the same thing, and I believe he is somewhere in your neck of the wood? 

Welcome!

Nice @WeednFeed!

You inspired me to drop my new SIG!

I can relate.  We haven't dealt with a boat ramp since the 70's  We had to redo our lift and seawall about 5 years ago.  I need to clean and re-seal the deck this spring.   

 

That's really gorgeous @MikeB !!

Larson does have some nice looking boats.  I remember in the 70's Larson seemed to have each model in either a "Deep V" or "Tri-Haul" design.  Never cared for Tri-Hauls.  Too damn bumpy.  My cousins family had a Glasstron Tri-haul boat and we had a 18' Larson open bow deep V.   We had a Evinrude 150XP two stroke and they had a 150 Merc outboard on the Glasstron Tri-haul.  We had a yearly race and a trophy that went with it.  I really like the Larson.  Ended up about sinking the damn thing.  My dad docked it at the local Moose club and didn't realize it was parked over a 50 gallon barrel.  They used 50 gallon barrels with the dock posts cemented in them.  Well the boat bounced up and down on the edge of the barrel.   Cracked the haul.  And of course we didn't realize it until the ass end filled up with water.  Barely made it back to our boat lift.  Thats when we traded it for the Viking prototype deep V.   The Viking was nice but I liked the Larson better.  Some of the Mariah boats are nice too.   

All you boater in the clan, check out "The Chit Show" on YouTube !!!  Its a boating channel that is very cool.  Boat show coverage and boat ramp coverage.  Some crazy shit happens at the boat ramps !!!   Watch this one !!  This guy drives his boat onto the back of another !!  Crushes the ship out of the motors !! 

 

The stupid is strong with this one.    Thank god I don't deal with boat ramps anymore.

I created a custom bind for screenshots and recording.

 

F9 is bound to recording a demo F10 is bound to stop record. F12 is bound to take screenshots because Print Scrn will often return a blank screenshot.

Here are my binds. I use F9 and F10 for recording and F12 for screenshots because those keys are easy to remember.  You can take a screenshot in different formats as well but it must be specified. jpegs are small and decent quality.

/bind F9 record

/bind F10 stoprecord

/bind F12 screenshot jpeg 

 

 

 

This is handy, thanks @J3st3r!

Can't you just use the 'Prt Scr' / 'Print Screen' button to do a screen capture?

Maybe I am missing something?

Yeah.  Nice lines.  I remember when Bayliners hit the market.  Most around our lake had Force outboards on them.  Force didnt last too long.   We owned a prototype Viking deep v bow rider back in the early 80's.  Vikings were known for their Deck Boats and of course nice fishing cruisers.  Love the shape of the big ass Vikings.  The one we had was a one off haul.  Was a nice 19' bow rider.  Not sure why they didn't put them in production.  Sold it and moved to a pontoon.  But I would love to pick up an old Check Mate or Baja to go along with the Toon.

There are several Baja 'Go Fast' boats at my marina.  They are pretty sharp.  But honestly I could not stand having loud exhaust on my boat.  Maybe back when I was in my 20s

Shaped like a Sea-Ray bow rider, but.... they usually have Merc drives.

Was thinking maybe a Bayliner Capri?  Like 18 footer?
