Re: "Easy Does It" joins "Aquaholic" in the Lambert M fleet

"Take It Easy" Looks just like my 32 Express, same paint, same stripes, but my bow rail is a short rail with a aircraft wire-rope going aft..! They sure are great looking boats..!!

Re: Anyone familiar with the boat "Precious Metal"? Catawba Island, Ohio

Is that the one at Mid-Way Marina.? I looked it over before I bought "Hei-Jo", Now named "C-WAVES" and soon to be renamed this spring (2018).. That is a very good looking boat, but way more than I needed, or wanted.. Are you going to launch at Mid-Way.? I was there last year with...

Re: sign and glide

Actually.. Yes, I did last August.. It started out badly.. I had smoke coming out of the engine hatch, so I called Tow-Boat US first, to get help underway, then I called progressive claims, ( after making sure everyone had PFD's, and the dogs were on their leads, and we had NO fire on board ) and th...

Re: Trailer for sale

Is this trailer still for sale, and where is it.?
I bought a 44 foot double I-Beam ( 10" ) to put my 32 Express on.. " OVERKILL..! " It's going to cost me $500 to have it cut down and resized, so I might as well sell it as is, and buy one that fits...
Thanks

Re: Drive Savers

Drive savers are 1/4 inch plastic piece that goes between the transmission and the prop shaft hub in order to isolate the shaft preventing any stray DC current to travel down to the prop and cause corrosion - I think that is close to the right answer. My 1973 32' has 1" shafts with 1 1/2 shaft...
