So a drunk boater going too fast crashes and kills two people and this somehow makes the argument that boats should be able to go as fast as they want? Should CT's BUI law be repealed too, since he didn't obey that? At least now they can throw the book at him. Had there been no BUI or SL laws, maybe he would have walked. But maybe that is what some of you guys are really concerned about....getting off after you've killed someone.

Having second thoughts of putting in the flat compass in the dash. They don't make a size that will match and will have to put a fitting or housing in the open hole for it to fit.

I already have a depth gauge. so if you guys have a second any thoughts as to what other gauge would work here? I think I have everything covered but am definately up for suggestions.

Threw the last picture in as a fond memory.

Sorry, you cannot have it both ways.
