  1. Don't get a hydrofoil. If you need to help get the back end up get Smart Tabs. https://www.nauticusinc.com/smart-tabs-sx/
  2. https://cfjctoday.com/2020/06/01/air-forces-investigation-focusing-on-birdstrike-as-probable-cause-of-kamloops-snowbird-crash/?fbclid=IwAR0eFFEDMpkConVjY9XkMdPz84HNkttoK5Z_KmRDNjNue50de_8x5x3ERLU
  3. Here's a couple of my favorites. https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCUUU29AwqBBdItwah3CfbDQ https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCay9_VGBzEtcSy-QuN8yyrQ
  4. My dad moved into an LTC in London just before all hell broke loose. When we were looking at facilities I noticed that some looked better than others. We picked 2 and put them on our list. He got into the one I wanted and it has been pretty good so far. There are a lot of LTCs in London (the lady we were working with gave us the list) and the price is the same across all facilities on their list. Dad's in a private room that costs $2,500/mo which is $4,000/mo cheaper than the expensive private retirement home he was in previously. Dad's LTC did have some COVID in it but they were able to isolate it to one floor and eradicate it. Nice to know his home is COVID free now. This has been tough on him as he's lonely without any visitors and being locked down. I do call him weekly to try and raise his spirits though that only goes so far.
  5. Those Thai's really do make bad a$$ surface drive rigs.
  6. You could just straddle the lip. A little extra sealant because of the space but it should work fine.
  7. Yes, no problem on Lake O on good days. I used to fish within' a couple of miles of shore in a 12 foot tinny with a 5 HP back in the day.
  8. Water's still 32 here. Shorelines will start going this week though and the small pot hole lakes should open up.
  9. They usually only put tubes in trailer tires if the beads are too corroded to seal. Might be time for new rims if this is true.
  10. Still 8 days left for my prediction to come true. 😷
  11. Can't say I have. My current ones are 13 or 14 years old and haven't had issues. I do keep my boat parked inside a portable garage most of the time so the weather doesn't get to them. It also gets way freaking colder her than there in the winter so if you thought things were going to break the brutal cold would mess something up. Maybe there are sharp edges on the rims where the valves are that are breaking them or the holes are too big and during winter lose air due to shrinkage.
  12. My buddy lived in his 36' Hatteras on J dock in Pt. Credit for years. Had a lot of good times on that boat.
  13. I thought the same. Too bad it happened so fast and they weren't able to eject at the top of the turn/stall. Wondering if the engine sucked in a bird?
  14. Got a similar type deal on my Renzetti Traveller. Made a custom ice rod for a buddy and we traded.
  15. I give it 2 weeks before the Rona runs rampant and everything is shut down again. 😷
  16. Some sad news. https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/london/registered-nurse-dies-london-covid-19-1.5567862?ref=mobilerss&cmp=newsletter_CBC+News+Top+Headlines++–+Morning_1174_27567&fbclid=IwAR2RGT9oBDXHB-Hh9Nwq6rBrcJ0kLs8eYnel-QFDBdG0RRiOu6YAQUcQ9Ww This home was one that I was looking to get dad into but crossed it off the list as it was mostly dementia patients. The one he is in (moved on March 12th) just before all hell broke loose is a couple of miles away. They have the Rona in his home as well but it has been held to one floor that is not his. At least last I heard. We haven't even been able to move his stuff from his old retirement home since everything has been locked down.
  17. CNE and the Airshow cancelled. 😪 https://z1035.com/2020/05/12/1the-cne-has-been-official-cancelled-for-2020/?fbclid=IwAR29-BIMCM_qLUOQURzvbPsDXGcGm3u27UXcyopIQE-EXz3F_IW8mVDdris
