Not sure WTH that means, please elaborate....

He's busting yur nutz, that's what we do on this thread. There is typically no serious technical discussion on this thread. I just asked the question here about the transom hooks because it didn't get answered on the original thread. Follow-up question (if this makes sense) : Are the hooks primarily just for lugging stuff a long distance or will they withstand the impact of the 10' wake jumps in your video without losing your load? I personally don't need them because where I ride, I am never more than 10 minutes from my dock but there may be members who would be interested if they understood the practical limitations. Please take this as constructive criticism - I think alot of the original "discussion" of the hooks resulted from the lack of information in the product video. The video was focused on glitz rather than content. Close up pictures of how the hooks mount and seeing them in action will produce alot more interest and potential customers than fancy spinning letters. It's 41 seconds into the video before the hooks are seen mounted on a ski. With product sales you probably have like 10 seconds to capture the buyers interest. Just my 2 cents. Again meant as constructive/helpful critique, not to be combative.
 
boy jake, u sure can sipher some stuff real nice, but what kinda bait can you use on em -- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QczyNaIu9Mo

Hey tater, I's pritty sure them there hooks come in all different sizes so you can use any of yur favorite baits. Down at the crick we like ta use nite crawlers, day crawlers, maggots and chicken gizards. Sometimes we is just lazy and pour some a Pa's shine in the water and the fish git so drunk they just flop up on the rocks and then ya hit em with a stick. But one of them big ole transom hooks on the end of a rope might work better than a stick.

I think the eye in the sky is secretly watching.
Your thread in now ON the radar.
 
Pulling a noodle, girls with soft noodles, what's going on here???? Whatever it is ....don't stop :)

A little off topic now. I placed it here since this is one of the MOST READ thread....
My buddy, an engineer at Meritor Automotive sent this to me.... Be on the look out for gifts in the mail. :)

There was a company-wide email today warning us that some employees had received a USB stick in the mail that supposedly had promotional items on it, such as a discount coupon, free offers, gift cards, etc. It actually had malicious code on it that jeopardized the security of any computer that it was plugged into. In most cases, the affected computers had to be re-imaged.
Just thought I would pass it on.
Thanks

One other thing....is everybody getting the seadoo warehouse image while reading a post.....it is quite annoying, if you ask me.
I know, I know, they are the sponsor thingy :)

With my vast mechanical experience, what do you guys think about these.

Honestly if I were you I would pass, the trailer is worth $300 maybe $400 tops. You're gonna get in the hole with the ski's real fast. Even if you can do the work yourself you're gonna have, including new short blocks, you'll need an engine alignment tool, overhaul carbs. overhaul pumps, you could have $1200.00 and up in each ski, it's not worth it.

SDB, where can I get these USB drives? I'm the IT manager at a car dealership, could keep me busy for days.

Lou
 
Well If I can get one, I'll send it down.

You guys hear about some lady dentist pulling her ex's teeth out after he had a 2 year erection from riding a BMW motorcicle....
details on World news by SDB network....the last 2 posts.
 
Hey boyz......

The guy got the paperwork all fixed. I'll be head'in out at 5am tomorrow to get the Islandia, if it all works out... say'n "Hi" personally to Seadoobuddy.

I'll start a thread, and post pics.
 
Great news, I just got a call from the guy with the 96 Speedster, it's got one new motor, 4 hours. Sounds like the other motor has low compression, he said it runs O.K. on the hose, but it won't stay running in the water. Probably needs a minimum of a top end rebuild. For $1800 still sounds like a deal. I'm going down tomorrow to take a look and probably buy. The downside is the wife said I'll have to get rid of the 96GTI (the Buick).

Lou

Here's a couple of pictures.

Can't pass a good deal
 
He won't be in this thread.
You could start in another thread in meet and greet.
You don't have permission to pm yet

I have no idea what that stuff means but I scrolled to bottom & saw a JoeZ in red & think I sent a message, not sure :)

Wanna tell me what it is and I'll get a hold of him.
But if you were able to pm(private message) then he should respond.

Thank you, it's because Kev has a Ban on his profile & he doesn't know why because all has been fine since last night.
