Great web site.

Post by Jmckamey »

Just wanted to comment on the greatness of this web site and the members within.
I did a bit of travel for work and ended up in the Dallas area for a couple of weeks. I have done this a couple of times in the past and know all to well what a weekend in a strange town can be like. This is where the Chrysler sailors forum comes to the rescue. I put out the word I'd be around and got a couple reply's right away. Ended up spending a great day out on the lake with retclt touring the local marinas oogling and googling over the local boats in their slips, then finished up with fine burgers and beer. Thanks Bob!! The same thing happened last spring when my Dad and I took the 22 to Fla., we met up with thepartydog and he cued us in on where to go and a few things to do. He also loaned us an awesome cruise guide for the area.
Although I no longer sail a Chrysler I do still check in on the web site on nearly a daily basis and add a little when I feel I have a little to add.
I just wanted to say l'm glad this site is for more than just fixing boats
Thanks to all, and if you ever end up in the east TN area be sure to check in with us, you'll always have a friend in the area :D

If we assume that our capt is on stbd. tack and, to me, the cattle appear to be on a port tack, then they must heed. Silly cows! :)

You are correct sir. The Longhorns are on a port tack. The trouble is that Tiny (second from left) is a demon cow and most likely to become first at the dinner table. Tiny waits until I'm down inside the boat and then knocks the ladder down stranding me high. That is one mischievous cow! She is a bad influence on the others.

Btw . . . our boats were built about 20 miles from where this picture was taken. This is Nevada, Texas . . . near Plano.
