  1. All members of the soccer team are have now been rescued from the cave. https://ca.news.yahoo.com/rescuers-gear-final-push-save-remaining-five-thai-023625316--sow.html
  2. It does look at lot like dry ice.
  3. Apperently, duct tape is not a recognized safety device for boat trailers... at least not for holding pallets together. https://globalnews.ca/news/4319627/brakeless-boat-trailer-made-of-pallets-duct-tape-nets-abbotsford-driver-2k-in-fines/?utm_source=GlobalBC&utm_medium=Facebook
  4. If you replace the barbeque with a tackle box, it would make a compact fishing boat. And you wouldn't have to worry about a ending up with a lap full hot coals after running over someone's wake.
  5. You need to speak to my fishing partner...
  6. I am not sure what to say about this...
  7. This is an entirely new way (to me at least) for trailering a boat to go wrong
  8. Not if it was the renters who caught all of the fish...
  9. You don't seem to understand how contracts work; or trades for that matter. Taveris is signed for seven years. If he has a few good years, he doesn't get to ask for more money. Most of the other key players will be locked in to similar contracts by the end of this year. In the case that they are not able to sign a key player. They don't just lose him; they will trade him for other players that can help the team win. Just because Ottawa tends to get poor returns on their trades; it doesn't mean that the Leafs will experience similar poor results. In recent years the Leafs have got pretty good value on several of their trades... In some cases by trading with Ottawa... And the Marlies had a very good year last year. So we should have some more good your players coming up soon. I think the next few years are going to be difficult for you...
  10. I don't think it will make any difference to current E-Tec owners. People who want to pair an E-Tec with an Alumacraft will probably get a better deal in the future. You'll still be able to pair an Alumacraft to a Yamaha if you want. You just won't get the discount for taking an all BRP package.
  11. That's a completely different company, and has been for about 15 years now.
  12. Lake Ontario was over 24 celcius on Tuesday. Pretty much the same tempertature from Bluffers launch to 300' deep. The water actually felt pretty cold along the bluffs on Saturday.
  13. Maybe he meant decades
  14. I think the lack of their own boats has been hampering their sales. This should help them build up their sales.
  15. Karlsson may be on his way out of Ottawa. https://ca.sports.yahoo.com/news/report-senators-allowing-teams-negotiate-extension-erik-karlsson-003931524.html
  16. The price of 3-D scanners and printers are coming down. We may be able to print our own soon. Or, make a mold for one.
  17. Leafs also picked up Jordan Subban and a couple of forwards.
  18. No, there were pictures and biologist on the thread. They were tilapia. Probably a hybrid of a nile tilapia.
  19. Someone on Facebook claims to have caught three tilapia from Lake Ontario in the Burlington area. I doubt that they will make it through the winter. But if they do, we may have another species in the Lake
  20. This looks like it could be fun.
  21. That's interesting. You need to have an approved and proper fitting PFD for everyone on board. If the infant PFDs are not approved, then it wouldn't be legal to bring an infant on board. I think they said the girl in the video was 28 pounds.
  22. Perhaps things have changed, but I was never tested on boat launches when I got my license.
  23. Driver mistakes the Ashbridges Bay boat launch for a "driveway of some sort." I think everybody was okay. https://www.cp24.com/news/motorist-drives-volkswagen-straight-into-water-at-ashbridges-bay-police-1.3986299
  24. Is it insured? If so, hopefully it is not too late to contact them. It looks like it would be worth going through insurance if it is covered.
  25. Disturbing; but good to know... https://www.facebook.com/holly.mueller.5/videos/2004369796263183/
