  1. It just seems like a shame to build a well insulated, masterpiece like that, and then have to open a window.

     

    How do these ice bungalow outfitters do it? You don't hear about problems with CO for them and there's likely lots of guys loaded.

    Just leave a crack in it is all. Its plenty warm enough.

     

    Im sure the hut rentals are just well ventilated. Really thats all thats needed.

     

    No different then burning wood at the cabin really

  2. I don't know, there's thousands of man hours spent in heated huts every year and very few incidents.

     

    I would guess CO is only a concern if you plan on sleeping in your hut or if you plan on getting so loaded that you wouldn't notice the onset of poisoning.

     

    I know of 2 guys that died from CO in a hut, they were sleeping over night in the hut and likely were really loaded.

    I know my heater shuts itself off.

     

    That being said i only use it in pop ups.

     

    For the shack its a fixed propane heater and exhaust.

     

    Youde have to be insanely loaded not to know because it gets to +20 in about 20 minutes lol

     

    Its like burning ash in a 12x10 hahaha

  3. I missed that, broke it what the hell. How? I would be sick to my stomach. Once you calm down access the situation and write down everything you did while it's fresh in your head. Then call the dealer tomorrow once you have cooled your jets.

    ???

  4. Good idea to get one of those beauties where you are, after you buy a home.

     

    If I lived where you are Simon I'd have more than one or a side by side. The problem around here is too many citiots from Toronto coming out here calling 5/0 complaining about the noise and the OPP comply. Those fish in the back lakes and streams are now endangered. I bet the first aftermarket add on will be a top so you can have fun plowing in a blizzard. The young fellow that plows our 1KM common laneway here has a snowblower on one machine and a plow on his second. I love helping him do the laneway on the plow but it's not fun if the wind is blowing on shore at 50KPH or more. Have fun.

    Ive used gators for years now and for the extra 10 grand id probably go with a gator.

     

    Ive done so much with them and they go anywhere.

     

    But 25 grand for a side by side sounds silly lol

     

    Althought i know it would indeed be worth it in the long haul

  5. What was the cost simon? If you dont mind me asking? And the difference between ON and MB?

     

    I was eying this up 2 months ago but with all the trimmings shes 15,000. Not sure im ready to pull the trigger but im tempted

  6. And as I look out the window this afternoon there is someone on a sled pulling another sled (or a trailer couldn't tell which) right down the middle of the lake (about 3/4 of a mile from here) and another person walking along about 100 yards or so behind them. I just walked away from the window, if they get into trouble there would be nothing I could do about it.

    I know that feeling. Brutal

  7. That isn't a M2B2 response. You are a lot like me, if you see something you don't understand you will hold onto it like a dog with a bone until you do know how it works. Maybe a difficult question but impossible, no. We have to know why because we have a duty to the grandchildren of the baby you are about to have. We (maybe not your generation but I for sure) have made a cluster fudge of this planet and it's up to us to fix it.

     

    edit: when I think of some of the things we did to the environment up until the mid 80's I cringe, don't know if there is a statute of limitations for environmental charges.

    Read me like a book lol.

  8. When ever someone in a meeting suggested a new project that person was usually told they are the co-ordinator. Great idea Freshtrax you will be a great coordinator, how can M2B2 help? Seriously though it won't be that tough a task. There will be a few hurdles as in many folks here work weekends so having it on a specific weekend may mean a few can't participate. Also some may not want to put in 20 bucks which doesn't mean others can't, those that aren't in a side bet just win bragging rights. It won't be a difficult task. I am willing to help Rick and yourself.

    What im in?

     

    Game on??

     

    Lets make it happen

  9. I just came up for air after watching the first 3 episodes. I have to say it has to be the best fishing show I have seen in very long time that I can say I really like. No 100K boats, there isn't a bank of electronic screens, ipilots, Power Poles and gadjets they flog on other shows and tell us we need them on our boats to catch fish. It really is refreshing to see all that STUFF isn't needed to catch fish. All 3 teams are entertaining and can be irritating too. My crew on the golf course and in the boat are always telling me to take a shut up pill, imagine if Taro and I were in the same boat (insert Taro laugh here). Paul Castellano knows that Niagara and mouth of that river like no one else and he isn't moving from it. They could jump in the truck and hit the Grand River in an hour and bound to get Bullhead, farm animals and monster Cats make a 5 minute run to Erie and catch monster Piks and 14" Perch, that is if he wanted or needed to. That Niagara is some fishery holding everything right here in our backyard for many of us. The guys in Sask and Manitoba had to put a few hundred K's on their trucks going lake to lake. Team Manitoba has shown everyone that thinks they need to buy 20 buck Live Target baits a few things. Most of their fish were caught on 99 cent Pickerel rigs, 2 at a time. Real fishing for the real common fishing people like us, except Mike Borger of course.

     

    I am going to watch what I believe is the finally now. It is nice to see the producers of this series doesn't fear the corporations that may be possible sponsors in the future, like Swiss Chalet and Mc Donalds. "You didn't ask me to supersize that!!! And I hate Swiss Chalet, they aren't even Swiss." I love it.

    Fourth episode is not the finale. But its as good as the rest!
