Re: Break a boat, get a beer

I'll say this. Nearly every time we passed 1 and 2 fishing lines went out. Army boats is what spoiled me on seafood because half went from the hook to the grill and the other half went straight to...

Re: When we shouldn't encourage people to "just go"

This very much. Plus, they might not always complete the work quickly. Especially if you're also paying to dock while waiting on parts to arrive. Island time is a legit thing and in my experience at...

Re: Break a boat, get a beer

Right on man, glad you liked the story. Thank you as well. I almost switched over to them but put it off for too long and they wouldn't take me when I finally was ready to go.

Re: Break a boat, get a beer

There's a few clubs around here that I'm going to be getting in touch with. Lake Travis has a pretty healthy boating community. My current plan of action is secure a marina that allows liveaboard,...

Re: Break a boat, get a beer

I'm glad you liked the story, thanks!

My family has always been close with the ocean. My grandpa was a Captain in the Navy, uncle was a Chief. I was the one that had to be weird about it haha....

Break a boat, get a beer

Forewarning, I can get long winded when I've had a few drinks and I'm not particularly good at storytelling.

Things break, most often at inopportune and very unfortunate moments. This isn't one...

Re: Howdy! Another new, temporarily landlocked, member here

Thanks! I'm already enjoying the forums. Since there's so much to read I almost didn't realize I was sitting in the DMV for 3 and a half hours today

Oh that's great to hear, thank you! I like to think I've somewhat matured enough to stop making unrealistic plans haha

Re: Cruising West Coast Do I need a fishing license?

That is a good point I didn't mention, I have had zero interaction with cali fish and wildlife. The most I've seen them do here in Texas on rivers is confiscate any fish and make you leave. I know...

Re: Cruising West Coast Do I need a fishing license?

New here, late to the thread. This was something that I had honestly not considered. The way I see things, game wardens probably aren't going to care too much about a lone sailboat with one or two...

Howdy! Another new, temporarily landlocked, member here

Just wanted to introduce myself since I imagine I'll be around here for a while. I discovered this forum yesterday while doing research on the viability of what I want to do and y'all seem like a...

Re: How did you get bitten?

New to the forums, haven't made a greeting post yet. In fact, some of this will end up in that post.
