Welcome aboard CF, Jason. Maybe add whereabouts you are and what kind and size of boat you have bought to you avatar. It will help people tune their answers to your questions.

Hi Jason, Welcome to the forum. Your 1st mid life crisis? I'm into my 3rd or 4th. Can't remember, but already looking forward to the next. Enjoy them.

G'day Jason, and welcome to CF.

So, you think you had a crisis before you bought a boat? Ain't seen nothin'yet, my friend, for boats spawn crises no matter what stage of life you are enjoying.

But dealing with them is kinda fun, and when successfully done, very rewarding.

So enjoy, and let us know how it goes, even if you don't have questions (unlikely!).

Jim

Okay, if English is not your first language, I understand that. If that's the case, let us know. If English is, however, your first language, then you really, REALLY need to slow down and write postings that make some sense!

You implied in your first post that you were going to be asking questions. Nobody is going to answer your questions if they can't figure out what the heck you are trying to say!
