old tunnelvision
had to change the name to smilemaker 2, because the ride in this thing kept the smile on your face after i stopped, while my friends were puking, un capable of speaking, and blistering the inside of their knees while shaking. theres nothing like a good drink, and riding at 80+mph side-too a 2' chop, in the trough with this baby bouncing on its pontoons like training wheels. my pontoon boat has surpassed any ride and gone beyond my expectations, so now its time for me to get mine. this pic was fake cause i dont drink beer, but i had to that day, and nothing works after a ride in this baby. should have named it adrenalin overdose, but thats next summer...

ok, sorry, nobody likes the captain anymore. ill shut up and just leave for the weekend and go to the cambrige maryland offshore boat races on the choptank river. might even stop by the dover nascar race if i get bored with boats. i followed them on the poker run one year and a guy blew a motor in his million dollar cigg boat, so i gave him a ride back to the venue, and his knees were shaking and he couldnt talk, but he was smiling like the capt. i think ill loosen my motor so i can chine with the rest of them. i feel left out, and embarassed when i beat them with a peice of junk.

dover race this weekend
i dont like kenseth, so ive got a pic of me pissing on him on the trailer. we stayed at the same place he did, except we went to cambrige. check out my mate w/o windsheild. we like to get the full effect sometimes, and snort a big blast of that salt air. new secret weapon this time, switched from 4 blade cleaver to 3 chopper, and its faster, but i cant fly it alone. too dangerous. got to have 4 head in the back seat. anybody got a 4 blade chopper to sell?

Captain, I like that you have a grab rail all the way around the cockpit of the Smilemaker, I'm thinking it comes in handy.

yea, its nice having friends and a wife working a a custom boat top company, standard welding and marine. i didnt have a windsheild at first, so the rail worked nice. ive got alum tubing and plating throughout my mate or it would be a crackmate. all this stuff is what makes all the difference because of the set up and rigging. thats why my check beats the big money, and big horsepower. when i put this 3 litre on it, its going to be captainmorgan looking like new york ronnie. people slap a big motor on and wonder why their boat wiggles its ass. im more concerned with safety, even though i look and act like a fool. thats why im president of the damned fools club. thats how i beat big money with junk. ill drink to that, again and again. heres to checkmate boats. gurgle, gurgle.

Thats what I've been posting but no one reads it.
Start a new thread guys.
But let's keep things in perspective please.
We've already created four forums which aren't getting tons of action as it is.
And, I've had PM's from members saying add my state to that particular chapter, and then another members pm's me asking why I added that state.
One person asks me to create a chapter for a particular area and then someone pm's me asking why I did it that way and not some other way.
So here's the deal before this gets out of control.
What I am going to do is create area chapter forums where there is support for them.
So, if you would like a forum for a particular area, start a thread and the interested members can post their support in the particular thread.
What we aren't going to do is, start creating forum after forum where we end up splitting hairs with respect to areas. I can see it now. North Michigan, South Michigan. Toronto, Muskoka.
And all's that will result in is fragmentation and dead forums.
Sometimes less is more...
So to recap.
If you want a particular chapter forum for an area.
Start a thread and make the suggestion. Give me a suggested title and the areas that the chapter will cover. If other members from that area post their support in the thread and it therefore makes sense, then we'll do it. If there appears to be little or no support, then we'll wait until there is the support.

im outta here
sorry for the redneck intrusion into yankee land. ill take my boat and pull it to my creek, and give some of the same hospitality i get on here, being they catch my fish, clutter my parking lot, and pull wake without any respect for a local who created this place. my boat etticate has come to pass, and one of you yanks better have me a fish sandwich, before u get the bun full.

Hey Red and everyone,
I added a new profile option which allows you to display your country and state/provincial or territory flag in your "postbit" profile area.
To configure it, you go into User CP>Edit Profile>Additional Options
In that area there will be fields where you can choose your applicable flags.

hey red, when you leave the bar in va beach, go north on rt 13, pay the person in the toll booth 12$ + 5$ per axle for your boat. drive across the bridge and make sure you look all around before you go in the 2 tunnels. once you hit land, head north for an hour up 13. theres a store called stuckys on the right. stop and gas the boat up. then go 1/4 mile and stop at mathews market and get beer. dont go north any more, cross the hwy and head west on turkey run road, and look out for drunks on your side of the road, with tennessee tags & playing carnival music. when you get to the railroad tracks, park there and get a mixer out of that drink machine, but dont pull no whiskey out right there, cause the bunch in that building might smell it, and want to make you a jack plate or something. tell them your going muddy creek. head west till you get to the muddy crk ramp. once your there, thank your blessings you didnt just get ran off the road by a beatup old pickup truck or a tennessee carnival van. ill be sitting at one of those cabins, getting ready to fly into redneck paradise. man, you got to experience this place. i need a flag. whats up with that?

you like the " oh sh** bars" huh? tell ya a little redneck secret. those bars have come in handy in more ways than you could ever imagine in your wildest hallucinations. not only do they keep my friends from flying out in the big chop, they have been what has held my checkmate together. that aint all they do either, but youve got to experience that. my foolish friends like doing handstands in the back and hold that hook i bolted in it. had to put them in my tunnel just so somebody would ride with me, including me, haha. that aint all either. haha
