Chef Jim Posted July 29, 2009 Share Posted July 29, 2009 GET OFF MY LAWN YOU DAMNED KIDS! Well maybe the wave runners but the majority of the motor boaters are old farts that make me look like a young man. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Dean Posted July 29, 2009 Share Posted July 29, 2009 NOTE: NOT OFFERED FOR CHARTER TO U.S. RESIDENTS WHILE IN U.S. WATERS. Alright. I'm a sailboat guy, myself. But I wouldn't turn a trip on Linda Lou down, that's for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ExiledInIllinois Posted July 29, 2009 Share Posted July 29, 2009 a john boat, slim jims and milwaukees best lite I wish I had a video camera... On Saturday a big cigarette boat came through with a smoking hot blonde in a bikini... Me and a co-worker were laughing because moving right next it as the cig boat was tied along the lock chamber wall was exactly what you described above... Too funny becasue the two Billy Boobs were staring right at the blonde and almost smashed into another vessel. Ah... The dichotomy betwen rich and poor in America come crashing together at times... God I love my job! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chef Jim Posted July 30, 2009 Share Posted July 30, 2009 Alright. I'm a sailboat guy, myself. But I wouldn't turn a trip on Linda Lou down, that's for sure. I agree but only to see what kind of wine they were pouring not for the cruising. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ExiledInIllinois Posted July 30, 2009 Share Posted July 30, 2009 You gotta get a webcam there so we can watch. They do at Locks and Dam 15 on the Upper MS (Quad Cities): River Cams Here it (web cam) would be deadly... We roughly do about 4 times as many pleasure craft as Locks 15 do (approx. 25k a year... Yet, I have noticed it really down in this economy... Not lockages, but number of boats at one time)... And it is freakin Chicago! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chef Jim Posted July 30, 2009 Share Posted July 30, 2009 is that possible? I KEED! You should see the crowd at the Baroque Festival my wife and I used to go to in Corona del Mar. I felt like I should be getting up for school the next day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ExiledInIllinois Posted July 30, 2009 Share Posted July 30, 2009 And I can have a boat with just as much luxury that can go all the same places and the wind is free so I've got more money to "waste" on better things and I don't pollute.

ExiledInIllinois Posted July 30, 2009 Share Posted July 30, 2009 I'm far from a tree hugger, but I love being on the water. There is nothing worse that being out on a sailboat only to be buzzed by a bunch of idiots on wave runners or having a big ass motor boat cut across my bow spewing diesel exhaust. Nothing like the peace and quite of a sail boat. It is all relative. Sailors are the worst offenders also when they step-down their masts and head down river or up river... They still think they have the right of way. In confined waters and not under sail (even if they were) they still have to give way and be the "burden vessel" when they encounter larger less manueverable vessels. You should see the douches... Constantly doing circles acting all whiny. Hope you are not one of those sailors! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You may have to pick it up in Canada. NOTE: NOT OFFERED FOR CHARTER TO U.S. RESIDENTS WHILE IN U.S. WATERS. What the phuck is up with that? USCG reg of some sort that it doesn't pass? I notice it is registered in the Cayman Islands or is that the civil ensign flag for the British Virgin Islands? I can't make out the crest on the field of red. Cayman Islands Flags BV Islands Flags Look for the merchant flags. I wonder why they don't have it listed under "flag" at the Linda Lou website? ??

Phlegm Alley Posted July 30, 2009 Share Posted July 30, 2009 This yacht makes the Linda Lou look like a an ordinary boat. It's $95 million and it's shaped like a killer whale. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
