$3.89/gallon at our marina (Vermilion, OH). It has been that price
since May 9th.
I do not know what diesel or high octane is going for. |

They only sell one grade so I don't know. Still a helluva price for a
marina.
Topped off the tank (19 gallons) after a bit of Vermilion River
cruising with my wife (Lake was still too rough).
Lake Erie was too rough? Were you in a canoe?
Nope....a 20 foot boat. We do not like to cruise the Lake in the
boat while getting knocked around so we cruised the river.
Where is it that you boat that you know the conditions on the Lake off
the Vermilion River?
That was years ago. If you read my post "over there" closely you would
already know that.
I've been on Lake Erie maybe 20 times in boats ranging from 18' to 25'.
Most were out of Port Clinton.
I guess your idea of "knocked around" is different than mine. I've been
in 2-4's with my 19.6' (with no low transom to constrain me) well over
10 miles offshore in the Atlantic Ocean. It's not comfortable but it's
also not scary. 4-6'er are enough to call it a day.
Carry on.
So you live in Florida and boated on Lake Erie in the past. Were on
the Lake today at around noon at the mouth of Lake Erie at the
Vermilion River breakwall or are you just trying to stir the pot hare
as you normally do?
Me thinks so. ;-)
No wonder why folks continue to leave this place. |

Jim,
I have no personal beef with you, but, referencing your statement above,
there is no "continue" anymore. Everyone that wanted to leave, has
already done so... except for a very few such as yourself who left, but
"continue" to come back. If you hate it here so much, why do you keep
coming back? It's a rhetorical question, no reply necessary.
--Mike
I come here because of my morbid curiosity about people who post in a
boating newsgroup and hardly ever post anything that indicates they know
anything about boats, and about people who think they can play the guitar,
and about people who are fans of NASCAR, and about people who brew beer,
and about people who live for their grandchildren, and about 50 posts a
day about kids' accidents, and, well, on and on and on and on, ad nauseum.
I rarely run into such vacuous souls in my daily life, so I'm curious.
Damn. You forgot to mention the political trolls, again.- Hide quoted text -

No one is going to post "political" messages for the likes of Loogy &

Have you ever been out in Erie? A typical day out of Owen Sound in
Lake Ontario Proper with a 20 mile an hour wind is nice. A typical day
out on Erie with a 20 mph wind is rough. The lake is much shallower. I
dont know about the Amereeecan side......
Based on his reply, the answer is obviously no. If he did he would
know that wave periods are short and the Lake can build and
significant waves in a short time because of it's shallowness,
especially at the western basis. 4 footers on Lake Erie are totally
different than 4 footers on the Ocean and definitely uncomfortable in
a small boat. The Lake was capping when we tried to go out so we
turned back. |

Try typing in English and you'll get a better response.
What part of my post didn't you understand, warp17?
As for "stirring the pot", you and the other two stooges seem to be
doing a fine job of it "over there" as well as here. The OT content has
also dwindled and I suspect that when Chuck returns he will be shaking
his head (at least) when he reads your collective bullshit.
So who has left here? You and Harry seem to be the top posters (of
crap) and your boy Don is still nipping at your heels from time to time.
This mass exodus has yet to materialize.
You will never get it. |

Many times and the most I've seen were 4' waves spaced quite far apart.
The OP said it was too rough for his 20' boat but he'll bitch about

If you haven't been out on Lake Erie, you have no dog in the hunt.
Lake Erie rarely has waves "spaced far apart".
Good catch....proof positive that Freddy (Dan) Kruger only comes here to
haunt and possess the souls of real boaters. |
