    Trailers: Tips for Backing Up, Driving, Maintaining?

    I think you'd prefer the camera mounted up high on your van so you can see the trailer. Batteries can fail at the worst time.

    Trailers: Tips for Backing Up, Driving, Maintaining?

    Hello all, it's been a long time since my last visit. The smaller the trailer, the harder to reverse. There are rules in the RV world that apply here - repack bearings every 3,000 miles, trailer tires have a lifespan of 5-6 years and may never show any signs of deterioration. Replace with...

    Canoe Tripping Nightmare

    And what did you eat beforehand to fuel your nightmare? Time to revise the diet?

    Thanks Glenn!

    I'll add my appreciation to the others, Glenn, and thank you for the email getting me to return here. I admit to not reading about the nuances of this software, I was wondering if there is a way to tag another member. In other forums @Glenn MacGrady would notify that member of being mentioned...

    Got a case of gunnel rot.

    Hello all, Been a little too busy to stop by. It's wonderful to see this site blossom the way it did. I believe Willis would be very happy with the results. Robin, et al, you did good! Would anyone know of a canoe repair shop within a reasonable drive from North New Jersey? Most of the...

    We are back

    Well! It is good to see all of the smiling faces again, at least I imagine they're smiling while I lurk about. Accessing this site while working doesn't leave time to participate though the desire is there. I hope to develop an alternate retirement program to allow more time to participate and...

    Tie Down “Helpers” - Just Say NO!

    Stop at your local sign shop and make some placards, "Back soon, went to town to restock ammo." Be sure to let the rangers in on your 'joke'.

    Rethinking my ditch kit....

    oldie-moldy, I find it helps to store my strikeanywheres & stormproofs in a closed container with ordinary uncooked rice added to absorb moisture in the off season.

    For the love of strippers

    I was reading this post over lunch when a colleague pops in, reading over my shoulder. He seemed to read the last sentence first and started with, "Let me tell you about the stripper I loved." The conversation was populated with 'a thing of beauty', 'fantastic lines', 'moved with grace', and how...

    A Fresh Start

    The king is dead, long live the king! Kudos to you, Robin, and thanks for all that you did. If you need help with things, I'd be happy to be a supporter. Tom (now back to lurking)

    Best Wishes

    Hello all, Most of my neighborhood had power restored Monday (11/5) evening, though it may be temporary with the nor'easter due in later today. I'm thankful for the opportunity to make a few repairs, stock up on water, and warm the house. I'm not sure how much longer we could've held out with...
