I haven't insulted anyone, just commented on a behavior. there is a distinct difference between local temperature variation and global average. BTW thank you for proving my points with your replies. Part of the problem is that one party insisting on like mindedness of all its members, this is...

I suppose graduating Magna Cum Laude makes me dumb...

Do you all figure what you're saying passes for informed political discourse? No wonder the country is so screwed up, people who don't know shit are allowed to vote, and yes this means you! Get educated about the facts of which you portend to speak and maybe then you won't be pissin and moanin...

Any drain plug replacement has to be aluminum or plastic or else galvanic corrosion will take place. try heating the plug with a torch and spray some penetrant on there while its hot, repeat as necessary until the plug comes out, no vice grips...use the right tool.

I have the Garmin 478 and can't stand it. I bought it for my wife to use in the car and sometimes on the boat, but the interface is completely counterintuitive(for me) and the unit is really slow to boot up and acquire satellites. other than that its for sale...anyone want to buy it after that...

I have been thinking that despite what colors look good when the boat is in general use, if you capsize, a bright color will be easier for search and rescue to find. My current color is black from the previous owner.

I had switch issues on my 2000 232 and found that all the fuse holders behind the dash were in various stages off corrosion. removed them all and cleaned up the corrosion and then greased all the connections, now no problems. always start with the basics, there is nothing to keep the weather out...

I am just finishing up my first year with a my 2000 232 and I have to say I'm not all that happy with the ride quality, it is not as smooth as I was expecting and pretty much s&^ks in a beam sea. The rest of the boat does what we need it to do fairly well but there are alot of things I'd like...

great idea and nice execution, you could put those into production! :D

I have a 232 with twin 150 2 strokes and find it to be great although I'm not sure the extra weight back there does the handling any good. I am sure that the Grady has a much smoother ride than the Whaler. I burn alot of fuel too, I get about 1.5 mpg at cruise. I use the boat mostly for fishing...

Can anyone tell me where I can get a replacement rubrail for my 2000 Gulfstream? I haven't asked a dealer yet but assume it would cost alot more...

Can I add a holding tank to a 232? where do they put them in boats so equipped? Does anyone know how to add a head with an overboard discharge?
