I am thinking about shrink wrapping this winter. any of you do it to your boat?

My cover is getting a little worn and the mildew was really bad this Spring. So I am trying to decide to buy a new cover or just get it shrink wrapped.

that's more of a northern thing isn't it?


Sep 15, 2020, 8:09 AM

I keep my boat in a warehouse (deal of the century at $65/month) so weather isn't a big issue. You keep it outside? If you could find climate controlled storage it would be better----the freezing temps really shorten the life of the vinyl seats by quite a lot.

They're all 1's in my book. Can't be picky.


Sep 15, 2020, 11:04 AM [ in reply to Don't know if he did. But what you're saying is ]

That's what they mean in my book.

Mebbe we should simplify this for the complicated people. Let position be denoted by a letter, starting with "A" going from left to right as English (not Arabic) is written/read. THEN let the number be the fukability score (1-10 per long-standing universal rules).

Therefore, you can not confuse the positional number and the fukability score, as one would be alphabetical and one numerical. The problem we have encountered is SOME PEOPLE see a position as a number, while not seeing only the fukability number. My assumption is the position is acknowledged with no assignment of a number, simply from left to right in order. This new system would be limited to 26 letters, but who the heck assigns a fukability number to 26 or more people? It should werk.

My answer would then be A1, B1, C1, denoting I have addressed a specific score to each positional LETTER.

You're adding additional information and complexity.


Sep 15, 2020, 11:14 AM

The current Tigernet system is purely a ranking from left to right of what's provided. It is not individually rating each person, but purely an order of ranking.

Cole @ Beach Cole w/ Clemson Hat


See that's not how I do it.


Sep 15, 2020, 11:23 AM

I number the chicks left to right (1, 2, 3, 4...etc) and Then provide my fellow readers the order in which I would like to make love on/in them.


To me, that just makes sense.


Think about it this way: which seems more of a natural way to talk:


See those three girls over there? I'd like to bang first one 2nd, the 2nd one 3rd, and the 3rd one first.



or



See those girls over there? I'd bang the 3rd one first, then the 1st one, then the 2nd one.

Cole @ Beach Cole w/ Clemson Hat


I just see them as they appear from left to right.


Sep 15, 2020, 12:33 PM

The numbers are purely the eye test number, not any other order. We Americans read and write from left to right. It's just a natural flow. But unless you're specifying an individual person (3rd from the right, 2nd from left, whatever), you assume a left to right progression. Or I do. Must be awfully confusing assigning a hotness number and a positional number at the same time. Three people, left to right, three numbers, each number progresses from left to right. Eye test only.

Sep 15, 2020, 9:49 AM

storage. Basically a heated warehouse with about 30 boats in there with mine. That dude went to 275 a month this year and everywhere else is straight booked. There are so many lakes around here that storage is an issue and what is left is too far North for me to justify driving.

So this year, I think I am going to wrap it and then keep on my buds lift. Its about the only choice I have this year. I just absolutely refuse to pay 3300 bucks a year for storage. I can replace the seats every year for that cost. :)

I do have a back up plan if the guy cant get to it on the water. A dude has a giant piece of land about 20 minutes away and I could park out there, but again, I really dont want that to happen.

Sep 15, 2020, 9:55 AM

like 5 years, and since January 2019 we're now up to $130 a month, with it scheduled to increase to $150 next year. At this rate, and with the amount of housing being built I imagine it'll be over $200 by 2022.

Your friend doesn't have to pull his dock for winter?

If you had to park it out on the land you could try something like this, although I dunno how it'd hold up to the snow:

he has a private ramp. I would just bring it back, get it off the trailer with some line and pull over to the lift. He also has some SUP's and we thought we could sit on those and with a line, get it over to the dock.

Sep 15, 2020, 9:47 AM

Snow and extreme cold would destroy just about any cover in a season.

Mine will sit out side under a cover, and on the couple nice days we get in Dec and Jan, I'll drive it up and down the intercoastal and shem creek and drink beer.

Because the sun isn't as bright down there in the winter, they even quit messing with their cover when they take their boat out almost EVERY DAY. Because its a high in the 70's. And Sunny. And flat.

Sep 15, 2020, 10:59 AM

So somewhat true.

I don't get it....the only time I see them running 70 is before everyone else is on the water / blastoff.

Most I see, and I spend A LOT of time on the water, avg speed is probably 40 mph. Occasionally a boat will go by at 60+, but that is pretty rare 30 minutes post sunrise.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up


maybe it's just my lake. They're either


Sep 15, 2020, 11:06 AM

stationary and fishing off the bow in trolling motor mode, or taking off like their house is on fire and they have to get home. I usually run about 40, and the only time they're not passing me is when it's super choppy.

2024 orange level memberbadge-donor-20yr.jpgringofhonor-obed.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up


To be fair, many bass boats (especially those with


Sep 15, 2020, 11:22 AM

lower HP motors) perform far better at top end speeds than at cruising speeds.

Take one for example that tops out at 40-50, that thing will run like tdrake at 30mph.
