I thought that i would be too pretty, but apparently not. You certainly are pretty enough, and a love of buckets so obviously shines though those gorgeous eyes of yours, so go to DOJ's link on the IBS thread and join up NOW.

Re: SSSSM - Part Deux

Why Nia you're perfectly welcome to join the bucketeers. Bring your own bucket (i think you're pretty, if my opinion counts)

Re: SSSSM - Part Deux

Deck candy is great to have, but not worth it when candy melts in the hot sun, or dissolves in the storm spray, or breaks in half when the next big port is too far away.

Re: SSSSM - Part Deux

Anyone else on SSSSM going to be at the boat show">Annapolis Boat Show this upcoming weekend?

Some of us are getting together for dinner Sat night 7pm but I'll need a show of hands by Wednesday 10/3 to make sure we have enough seats.

Let me know and I'll PM you the details.

Re: SSSSM - Part Deux

I am about as much deck candy as this ol' boat can handle...
I just got back from a 5 day blue water shake down on a friend's boat.
Soon will be taking mine up and out the Straits to check her out.
Yep, deck candy seems to go when the equinox hits.... Besides, they are usually on Bayliner or Delta Power Yachts anyway…
No more perfect conditions, so they have little to no savvy or sand…
Life is to short to be interested in the wrapper.
Remember, there is a lot of shiet surrounded by pretty lily white porcelain.

Re: SSSSM - Part Deux

Some here can be pretty and have the grit to see it through. Not all deck candy is useless.

Re: SSSSM - Part Deux

When I was younger I had "six-pack" stomach muscles. These days, after enjoying six-packs, I'm afraid the only six-pack I have would the one sitting in the fridge. no make that a 5 pack, or, wait a moment 4 pack. damn these things have holes in the bottom, how about 3 pack?

Time to pack it in
