    Swiss Nightclub Fire

    I remember the Christmas tree accident in Quebec years ago when a real tree went up at a town hall when a drunk lite it thinking it would be funny and several perished . My dad taught me to check for escape routes , he was a super paranoid guy . I look for normal doors and where the option may...

    Boat Rentals

    As per @GreyGhost , it’s deal time on any boat needing love or attention. My boat mechanic friend has a boat the owner has put over one hundred k into ( it was a fourty k boat ) and now needs out , it can be bought for thirty . Since we are sort of done doing anything long distance in Lake...

    Boat Rentals

    Mostly the stupid one’s go bankrupt . Buying a boat is cheap and easy , keeping it afloat and winter storage will cost seven K in the GTA for a thirty ft , if you can do your own winterizing and spring commissioning . The “free boat” the old guy at the marina is gifting ? Yeah twenty one grand...

    Winter stretch

    Shoot clay pidgeons Wednesday mornings ( regardless of temps) , I’m doing zoom cycling training Tuesday/ Thursday nights and Sat mornings . I try to ski at least two afternoons mid week . It’s hard with a full time job but WFH is the best ! Winters aren’t much of a problem to be busy . I also...

    Pickup Trucks

    I shopped a bit for winter rims/ tires and at the end of the day the Toyota dealer had the best pricing . I was sort of shocked . Factory wheels and decent tires . I stopped doing steelies about two decades ago , they rust like heck in the first winter and just do not improve the look of any...

    Vendee Globe and other sailing around the world

    Sailing has a lot of obscure rules , that is not one of them . DSQd boat was running an asymmetric spinnaker which tacks to the centerline of the boat and used a pole , new winner was using a conventional spinakker so pole is allowed. Bit unusual for the race committee to file protest but in...

    🇪🇨 To the Jungle and Back Again

    We were deep into the jungle in Venezuela years ago ( when it was just a little crazy ) . The rainforest is quite incredible. Sent from my iPhone using GTAMotorcycle.com

    Pickup Trucks

    By the time Aspen / Volare came around trying to modernize the slant six was a failing ordeal . I’d forgotten the ballast resistor thing , we had a white ceramic brick in every car . Pops had a fondness for Mopar for a while . Sent from my iPhone using GTAMotorcycle.com

    Pickup Trucks

    Dodge made one of the best inline six in history, two twenty five sideways slant hemi . In our half ton farm truck with the three speed manual it was newish when I could reach the pedals and still running when I left home . Then they stopped making that engine . Sent from my iPhone using...

    Off the road

    Might also depend on your broker and the relationship you may have . We have had the same Gal at three different companies ( we follow her) . I can get “off the record “ conversations with her that leaves no paper trail . Many of the new style mega brokers where your call may be recorded for...

    Vendee Globe and other sailing around the world

    Both really , the hundred ft maxi yachts are built to a “guideline “ rule and in a short distance race when geographic features are in play you can go inshore or further out but you have to make sure you can get back on the course line without sailing too many miles extra . They all have pretty...
