Hey Wavejumppin, Indy from OSO here. Yea this place does not get nearly the volume that OSO does but the OSO board has become more of a chat room rather than a boat forum. Maybe it'll turn around for the better. It seems to go in circles. OSO is more relevant for my type of boating (salt water) rather than the lake type stuff that is talked about here. However I do own one of the only west coast boats in the Northeast. What type of west coast boat do you have and where do you boat?
