Loye, you wonder why I stay away from that place these days...and I have 11,690 posts over there!

Interesting that Lee (twentyfourseven) commented.  He's been looking for an AS for a couple years now.  He's a lawyer in Tarpon, used to have a 36 YF...then it somehow was gone, he's never explained what happened...

I go over there just to read the repair post and LMAO at some of the comments.  It's amazing what some of the keyboard mechanics tell people to do. LOL

Many over there get there "mechanical" knowledge out of a bottle, if you know what I mean... :wink:

I had a single I/B I was re-wiring a few years ago, Volvo 8.2.  Hooking up the gauges (plugs had been cut off by some PO), I was uncertain which tan wire was engine temp.  Posted the question on THT, within 3-4 replies, had my answer.  Off I go.  Come back that evening, just out of curiosity...the thread is going on 3 pages, and 3 guys are calling each other a$$holes!!!  WTF??!!  My question was answered 2 pages ago!! :scratch:  :scratch:

That place is a breading ground for d-bags! The guy that started that thread sounds like the king of them all and the subject aside, really shows how little he knows about boats, hulls and performance.  And I am not saying that because I have a AS... promise  :salut:

Actually Loye, some of the best "comedic releases" no longer come on there, even THEY got tired of the new batch of tools.

Take my good friend Mike Carrigan for instance.  I convinced him a few years ago that his presence on THT would be good for Proline.  Well, if you ever read any threads that he posted in...which was a LOT!!...what a glutton for punishment!!  But a lot of funny chit came out of those threads.  Sometimes I'd just have to call him and tell him, "Mike, sometimes you just have to STFU!!"  But that's damn near impossible for Mike, Pete's met him, he can attest.

Even Mike doesn't go on there anymore...

Absolutely!!  Figure out how to wire in the pump on the Yam tank and you can have oil injection on steroids!!!

Loye, stay away from that place...
