What???? You spun around so fast, did you fall down? Ric, are you in public office? If not, I think you missed your calling.

HA.

The thing is, I'm putting my name out there for a lot of individuals to learn. For what? This picture was taken two days ago. The lake board failed to do anything for the weeds last year (no carp, no chemical, nothing) so this year it's exploding. Can't even use the damn ramp I have to go clean it out so I can move my boat to the Marina. I'm not fighting to use a lake and it's surroundings when I won't be able to use them come June. I'll continue this battle in the winter if need be, until then I'm moving it to the St. John's where I can boat to my heart's desire.

I didn't take the video nor was I a part of it. You can see my boat like 3 times for a second.

I like that video and especially the music. Looks like a nice hangout but I have to ask is that a giant bong @ 3:13?

I seen that to Ben :lol: ,its a hookah. , basically yes except for flavored tobacco, or some sort of flavored smoking medium. I dont know if you have them around you, but around here, but we have a couple of hookah lounges around us. I myself dont get it, but different strokes...

Wow!! I can't believe you all swam in that shit. Haven't you all heard of Naegleria Fowleri, that brain-eating amoeba? Heck, we went to Walt Disney World and they won't even let you wade in the 7 Seas Lagoon and it is a lot bigger than your pond. The HOA Nazi is doing you a favor.

So I've been thinking all day. I'm bowing out. What am I even fighting for? My right to idle around a 500 acre lake that's getting full of weeds because the HOA slacked off and the neighboring communities that hate boats? Forget it.

The goal is by June to dry dock the boat at Boat Tree Marina in Sanford on the St. John's River for the summer. At least til November. All I have to do is make a phone call and it's sitting there waiting for me tied to the dock ready to go in the 25 minute drive it takes to get there. There's restaurants, bars, gas stations, party coves, places to anchor out for the night, you name it all up and down the 100 mile river. The marina itself has laundry, hair salon, bar, restaurant, swimming pool, tons of stuff just to hang out at. I have a fully stacked and optioned 22ft cuddy cabin, time to start using it.


Wow, Boat Tree Marina has indoor rack storage for $239/month. That would be $600/month down here ($25/foot)!
Or are you doing the dry uncovered storage for $149/month?
