  1. Pick your poison ... Everything comes at a cost ... spent nuclear fuel rods stored in pools and then moved to offsite storage sites... how long is the radioactive decay last ? Burning charcoal , gasoline and oil isn't going to help the planet either . Interesting documentary on NatGeo channel about how the US utility commissions lobby congressman and Senators to stop funding Solar , they have never had to deal with competition of any sort so they don't know what to do , and the politicians get monetary support to not help solar companies.
  2. I think it would be amazing !!!! The future lithium batterys I'm sure will be so much more powerful than todays. Electric Ice Auger's are much more convenient too ...
  3. Brother in law ordered the new Tesla Model X. I'll be very interested to see how it performs during his ownership.
  4. You have the same setup as I do at the cottage. I installed a Napolean wood stove as well , pumps out the heat ... we also have a propane furnace. I was told that code is you need an HRV , the installer told me today's construction is so air tight that's why the HRV is needed if you have a wood stove. I don't have an HRV , I burned last winter no issues... do I really need the HRV ? Lots of friends burn but don't have HRV's.
  5. Looks like great times for sure ! Thanks for sharing .
  6. Nicely done guys, glad the weekend turned out great. Auroras, Brookies and Rainbows ? Ya can't beat that !!!! I guess no splake ?
  7. I got the 9.9 because of being budget conscious but I should have just gone for a 20 hp from the beginning ... I can't load the boat or put in a floor because the 9.9 just bogs down ... Like I mentioned before , for bigger water it makes all the difference Go for the bigger motor...
  8. I also have the 14' Yukon , great boat for my needs on smaller lakes. I have a Honda 9.9 on it and it is definitely underpowered for bigger water. I am looking to upgrade the motor to at least a 20hp.
  9. Cool picture on the tailgate Simon . That surf and turf meal looks delicious. Glad to hear Jack is ok .
  10. Thanks for that Dave... I can never get enough of laker fishing ...
  11. Rick , Bunk, Dave, Brian, Chris B and others Thanks for all the reports !!! ... , my fishing stories have sucked for the last 2 years , other than some great crappie fishing last spring.
  12. Just got a couple of lakers in a stocked lake up in Haliburton today , trolling spoons with a Dipsey diver.
  13. I agree Chris .. lol I know Ottawa's crappy defensive coverage and rusty goaltending are helping . But as a disgruntled Leaf fan he is a huge bright light for the organization , just hope he can stay healthy all season and some other Leafs can score eventually .
  14. Wow !!!!! .... Way to go Austin !!! Goal #4
  15. Austin ..... take us to the promised land !!!!!!
