  1. There were enough idiots to go around. Port A was packed.
  2. It was a good time at Shorty’s. Surprisingly not that crowded considering it was the eclipse and the Pig Party but we left fairly early so maybe it got busier. Round 2 starts this afternoon at the house. Fajitas and margaritas with some good friends.
  3. It took almost 2 weeks, but we’ve finally got the great October weather. @MissingInAction is coming down for the weekend, I’m thinking Shortys for the eclipse if anyone wants to go have a few beers.
  4. Just got back from a short trip to Costa Rica to check out the boat and do a sea trial. 32 knot cruise and top end at 41. Surveys are complete and it passed with flying colors. Discovered a hidden bar and ice maker in the saloon that wasn’t in the listing or pictures, it’s like they built the boat just for me. Closing is set for the end of the month.
  5. Love this country. In town for a few days in Los Suenos. Flew in last night and got my fill of Imperial Light and Chileguaro, marina day today, tomorrow taking a boat ride to Quepos and back.
  6. I’m always in for a happy hour if I’m in town.
  7. Yeah, same time frame in CR with some friends we rented a 6 bedroom Villa that was about 1000 a night. Three bedroom in SJDS for 350 was a good deal, especially if it had a view. On the other hand anything in Los Suenos is ridiculously expensive it’s the most expensive place in CR. Headed there tomorrow and managed to find a condo for 150 a night which is a steal even in the off-season.
  8. Damn, sorry I’m going to miss this one. Y’all have a great time.
  9. Yeah, don’t really know any boats that don’t have a name anywhere I’ve been. Sure, a 17 foot skiff may not have a name but a lot of my friends with boats like that have a name they call it and most have that name somewhere on the boat side. As far as tbone’s size boat they all have a name around here.
  10. Yes there is definitely a superstition that renaming a boat is bad luck. I’ve heard various fixes for that, including breaking a bottle over the bow like fatty mentioned. But my favorite is having a virgin urinate over the bow of the boat.
  11. Thanks everyone. We did a shaggy trip back when I had the old boat in Port A so hopefully some of y’all can make it down to do one in Costa Rica soon.
  12. Tree fiddy. Boat prices have gone bonkers the last few years as you know, but I feel like I got a really good deal on this one.
  13. Y’all still have the invite.
  14. Viking. As much as I wanted to pull the trigger on a custom I just couldn’t justify it so went with another Viking. My experience with their boats has been excellent.
  15. Good meeting your wife and you again too. And meeting for the 3rd time in the club. See y’all at one of the next ones. Thanks @immamac as always and @MissingInAction and @Nicole44 pleasure as always.
  16. Offer accepted yesterday, surveys scheduled over the next few weeks. If all checks out this is the new PortAfino in about a month.
  17. That’s the best time of year for redfish. October is the best month of the year here. Weekends will be a little crowded but you should find plenty of room the further south you go on the beach.
  18. I can’t always remember people I met last week, plus I was likely drunk.
  19. You and Sydney going to the Wyoming game? Need to put a face to you 2 asshats. I’ll hit the tailgate and then I’m pretty sure my seats are right near y’alls. 39B
  20. Well, that’s something. That was a Stripes - and a small one - so it will be interesting to see what they do with the space. They are keeping the existing building and remodeling the interior. It’s 3 blocks from my house so I’ll definitely be aware of its progresss and will check it out when it opens.
  21. I’m not a fan but yeah it’s a sports bar with food. Personally I’d eat before and then watch the game wherever, Bernie’s actually has pretty decent food and good TV’s. I’d invite you over but I’m watching the game at a friends house.
  22. Any idea where it’s going to be? Good Food would be a major plus otherwise it’s going to be really tough to make it here. 4 or 5 bars have opened on the last year or 2 and 2 have already gone out of business.
  23. Yeah this storm is way stronger than what I was expecting. Very strong wind gusts here in Port A and currently 5 tornado warnings inland north and northwest of us.
  24. Great. That’s exactly what we fucking need here.
