Too Old,
Good to see that you are around somewhere still....I'm more of a lurker than a poster on both boards, but it's too bad what's happening on the other one. Hopefully it will pull out of the dive that it is in and return to it's previous status.
I think that ***boat boards are pretty good as well, just watch out what you say about "H" boat builders.....(just kidding, there was a long drawn out thread about a mystery H boat builder a while ago that was frustrating..)

Nice to see so many folks I recognize.
About the other forum: I wish them nothing but the best. I mean that. With even the slightest amount of 'guidence' on their part, the forum will return to the fun, informative gathering place it was in the recent past..
Hell even a democracy has a few rules.
I'm knee deep in the Sonic project. I'm thankful to have something to tinker with. The interior is pulled out and ready to be delivered to the upholstery shop. All the deck hardware is off so I can have a couple paint issues addressed. The radar arch is still on, but will be gone in the next day or so. Lots of other small projects going on with the boat.
I intend to have it looking good by Memorial Weekend as I glide into Party Cove!

This new home just might work out nicely. Hi everybody.Too old, are you gonna leave the arch off?

Too Old
02-27-2002, 10:32 AM
Robert, yes the arch has to go. It's not a huge job, it just requires a few more hands than I have. I have the access plates off the sides of the arch. There's three bolts on each side. Also looks like maybe some 3M bonding material was used. I have the wires disconnected. Just need to get someone to hold the bolts from the top side and it will be history. When I was in Alabama last week I brought back a case of the flu so I haven't been my energetic self.
I sure like the new boat though. I'm excited by the possibilities.
By the way, if anyone is looking for a nice Formula, I saw a dealer in Jasper Alabama that stocks some bad boys. Big ol long Formulas with big motors and extention boxes.
They start the Lottery here in South Carolina next month. I see it as my chance for that new Formula.

Your asking me? I can't even spell compuder! But There is a message icon that is apparantly locked onto a frown unless you click on something else. We will figure it out,this is a new board for some of us.

Indy
02-27-2002, 11:04 AM
I like the Sonics without the arch also. But those that have them love them for their ability to attach a camper top. Sonics not only are great offshore boats, but they have great cabin space that lend themselves to overnighting.

I spoke via email with the editor of another boating magazine. They are giving serious consideration to putting together a first class forum. There forum would have some "ground rules" in an attempt to keep both their advertisers and subscribers smiling.

Cool! I think someone needs to work on an offshore type site that offers lots of things other than just board stuff. But, not so many "user options". I'd rather see other options, but just not ones under the control of the user.

Looks like an OSO reunion..lol http://free.***boat.net/ubb/biggrin.gif
I have to admit to you all that I still like OSO. As much as I like boating I had fun with all the other sillyness. Its too bad it went too far but I like most of the rest of the OT stuff. You can only talk about straight boating stuff for so long before it just plain becomes boring. Tracy loves the General Discussion section. She's never even opened any of the other sections. If general discussion becomes the tech section then it won't have the overall fun flavor it has had in the past. I think we can still have lots of fun with out offending anyone. Thats the name of the game isn't it... http://free.***boat.net/ubb/wink.gif Frankly after spending some time going to the different discussions on here I think most of my time will still be spent checking out OSO. I'm sure I'll check in here as well...just not as often.

Fred,
You seem to be angry at what I said. I agreed with you that a very few people went too far. That was a shame. However what I was trying to say to you is that there still are a lot of people over there that did and do support you and I think its a shame you decided to have yourself removed from OSO. I've always felt that if you think most of something is good...then maybe its worth staying and fighting to keep it good.
As far as your comments to me on the other thread; I don't see at all where you got from me that I agreed with the worst of what went on there. I like 98% of OSO. Have met some great people from there. I'm not going to let some stupid people run me off. There are many many people over there that wishes you would have stayed as well. I reread my posts to you and am still not sure how you got that I thought the sheep thing or rasims is ever good. I just said I hadn't read any rascists remarks and I read almost everything posted but I must have missed that one. Anyways, i'll probably only come here every so often to promote my love for the Active Thunders. i'll go back to OSO for fun. Didn't mean to make you angry at me TooOld....just wanted to let you know that there are some people that would like to have you come back.
Take care and i won't bring this up again.

Too Old
02-27-2002, 09:50 PM
Todd, my apologies. I guess I must be a bit thin skinned right now.
I agree with you. I enjoyed at least 98% of the people and the topics over there.
I hope to bump into you at the Ozarks or perhaps up on Winnebago this summer. A cold brewskis on me. After that, I'm ready for a ride in the A-T.

Like RiverToysJas asked, why are numerous OSO members going elsewhere??

Too Old
02-28-2002, 05:33 AM
C2...I chose to leave OSO because of some recent questionable content in the posting.
The folks who operate OSO were made aware of these offensive posts and decided to not become involved.
I decided not to associate myself with the site any longer. That doesn't make me right and them wrong. It simply means we disagree on what's acceptable. It's their sandbox so I picked up my toys and left.
There was no mass exodus from OSO. Just one guy with a difference of opinion who chose to move on.
I was member #13 on that forum. For the most part I enjoyed the OSO forum and I met a lot of good people there.
Now, back to boats and boating....

02-28-2002, 08:11 AM
Hear you there Too Old. Member 194 over there (which means I probably signed up about 5 minutes after you did ..lol)
Offensive posts suck, period. Over here they have the "tribal drums", which is more of a poll taken before bouncing somebody from the site based upon their posts. It's a good way to deal with knuckleheads.
Erik will also lock a topic down if it gets too crazy.
Personally I think the crap will settle down over there, a similar scenario was just played out over here/someplace close to here.
Children will be children.

heres the deal guuys. I try to fit some wotk in around talking about boats. I've had a bit of the flu so I've been here a little too much.
I traded the Skater, so no racing for me. The Sonic will be too slow for that. I'm trying to build a nice compromise boat. Something my wife can enjoy and I can get my performance boat fix with. I don't want to go all summer without a boat, so I'm doing cosmetics now, and motors next winter.
So, I have plenty to do and I'll be slow as hell this year. But, damn, I intend to look good gettin there last http://free.***boat.net/ubb/smile.gif

Nort,
No disrespect meant, hope you didn't take it that way...I was pretty much a lurker on the other board but I usually got a laugh from your posts....Just figured that you and the DMAN were pretty recognizable from the OSO board....

Too Old,
You won't be that slow...well I guess by Skater standards a little slow. With 454 mags you should see 68 give or take. Heck taking off that arch should be good for a few. http://free.***boat.net/ubb/smile.gifGood luck with the project!

Thanks Gary. I worked on the Arch for a little bit this morning. I can't even dsscribe how hard thos arch bolts were to reach. Anyway, there all off and the only thing holding the darn thing in place now is some bonding agent. Hopefully, I'll have it completely removed tonight.

Fred, heres a trick to try to get it loose. Get some super thin piano wire and slide it in between there to cut it loose! Should work like a charm. http://free.***boat.net/ubb/biggrin.gif

I'm computer challenged and can't think to delete the frowny face on every post. Why is it there anyway and how do I get it to go away?

03-01-2002, 08:04 PM
Heck if I can figure it out Robert. I have the same thing happening more often than not. My feeble mind just forgets to check a different message icon.
Seems like an odd choice for the default face though.

Most of the crap floating around the OSO board has calmed down for now, we'll see what happens. At least there is more boat talk going on now. I'll still monitor both boards. I don't care too much for the new format, but its really the only game in town for off-shore style boating.

Slow Poke
03-13-2002, 01:31 PM
Yep your right, not much else to choose from other than over on OSO but I sure hoped this would take off and do better. I really like it here tho nice a quiet huh? So what kinda boats you guys have?

Indy that is one Bad A** ride dude!!! Wish I had one like it http://free.***boat.net/ubb/smile.gif But I guess I am stuck with my like toy boat for a while longer, just can't bear to sell it since it is paid for and all. Sure makes it run better too ! ! Hey Traviss glad to see you still around. Hows the job hunt going???

Yep, I'm still here, like this one better, anyway. Other one is too busy, slow and too much garbage to weed through. I did some posting there in replies, but there is always someone talking trash or something.
I'd rather see this one do better, but there aren't a whole lot of new posts, and I personally don't have anything going on with the boat, still sitting in storage http://free.***boat.net/ubb/smile.gif The little things that have to be done will be "hired out" to someone that knows what they're doing. I'd just make a big mess. LOL!
Anyway, wish this one would become more active.

This Offshore forum hasn't ever done too much. I usually just hang in the Hot Spots forum, but it can get a little watered down sometimes too. If you guys want to check out my board, feel free. It gets a lot of Nordic/Magic/Sleekcraft owners on it. But for now tends to be most of us west coast Havasu boaters. Hence the club. But I have been trying to get more individual forums dedicated to brand name boats started when people are interested, so let me know. A message board is what you make of it and so far my members are good boating people and we don't talk trash or post porn. I won't allow it! But I don't mind thr occasional bikini posts. God knows the rest of my site has them. But the board is very safe to view at work, which is a bonus too. I have a 2001 Nordic 28' Heat and most of the members have bigger boats there. Check it out and tell me what you think. The more people that show up the more we have to talk about!

Indy....nice ride http://free.***boat.net/ubb/smile.gif your trailer looks like mine and was wondering if you carry a apare tire? i need to put one on mine but don't know where the best place to mount it would be.
hey chris i'm already a member over on your site and i think you did a nice job on it. i check there also about every day....its a little slow like this but hoping it will pick up as the word gets out http://free.***boat.net/ubb/cool.gif

Euby...I don't carry a spare because I have kept it in rack storage and only trailer it twice a year. This year will be different though as we have not renewed our marina contract because we are both unemployed http://free.***boat.net/ubb/frown.gif Looks like we'll be trailering it alot more this year. Not sure if I'm going to get a spare though, its only 17 miles to the water and the boat would do fine on two tires per side...Steve
