| With your luck, Rich, it's a good thing there aren't any icebergs in the Mississippi River. |

| Aww, you're not having a lot of luck with this recently are you. At least you were in Port a and not in the middle of the gulf of Mexico. |

| I admire people who can admire boats. It seems like a ton of work, always a hatch to batten down, so to speak.

| Hah! That pic of the little boat towing you.
Several years ago, my Dad (who is retired) bought an old inboard/outboard. The thing was completely unreliable (it conked out more than once) and I spent every trip out on the lake worried that we were going to get marooned. Now I wish I would have just rolled with the punches and enjoyed it more.
You only live once. Enjoy the ride, Rich. |

| Great boat! My favorite is the latest one thus far.
One of my mistakes when I was younger was telling my dad I didn't want his green canoe that I grew up with and we had taken out several times. It was big but we had some great times with it. When I went to Puerto Rico last month, I tried kayaking for the first time and had a blast!
I still can't believe that first one sunk! Yeah, no more Titanic names! |

| Nice boat! We have a river near by, and a lot of people ride on their boats there.
Someday, I hope to ride on a boat on the river! (The river goes out to the Pacific Ocean ) |

| I think it would be cool to have a boat. We have several reservoirs nearby, along with a major river about 90 minutes away. Unfortunately, the closest ocean is 3 hours away and involves crossing the border into Mexico. |

| Close to Mexico you can make good money ferrying illegals...pay for your boat in 90 days... |

| Well, if I can't ferry them, I guess I'll have to marry them then!
What part of the USA are you in anyway? I forgot. I do need to travel more... |
