No, it has a starboard mounted controller and steering wheel.

I have an old 2001 16ft Xpress with a 2-stroke Yamaha 40hp. She's been a good boat, but for the last couple of years, I have constantly been fighting one issue after the other on the engine. The parts aren't expensive, but I am getting tired of the constant "what now?" and just want to be able to hop in the boat and go. I keep the boat up at my place at Lake Rosemound, and it mostly runs there - both due to convenience, but also because I now don't feel comfortable taking it elsewhere... especially down for inshore. At what point do you punt? I doubt I will drop the money for a new boat, but I am considering getting a 4-stroke replacement motor. Does it make sense to put a new motor on a 25 year old hull? I'm assuming that would cost somewhere between 8-10k? (wild guess) Not going to lie, the thought of not doing pre-mix does seem attractive. Thoughts?

Read up on Sleep Restriction Therapy. Basically, you go into slight sleep deprivation where your sleep efficiency becomes greater than 85%, then add time in bed by 15 min increments. It sucks when you first start, but it works.

Saw it in BR. So bizarre looking trucking across the sky.

Any ideas on what's going on with Verizon in the St. Gabriel area? The service was weak at the plant already, but data has been pretty much non-existent for the past couple months. T-Mobile hotspot seems to work well, so I may be making the switch soon.

This sounds like a job for Microsoft One Drive TBH and not worry about dealing with hardware configuration and access.


This! You get 5TB for each userid.

Are y'all suggesting the Microsoft 365 Family plan for $100/yr? I see 1TB per user, not 5TB. While I am not against it, I'm a cheapskate and that seems a little overkill for what I'm looking for. Am I missing something?

Everyone on Inniswold between Floynell and all the way to Jefferson have no power yet

We just got power!!! Inniswold & Oliphant

Nope, not a damn clue. I was so hopeful as well.

Latest word on the street is that they had to purchase equipment for either the substation on Jefferson or the transmission lines that come in and delivery is "a few days."

Hopefully we get power back by the last day of pool

Tim closed the pool for the year. He sent an email this morning.

Hearing conflicting reports for Jefferson Terrace area…both from neighbors who talked to lineman

1. Said late last night or today
2. Another said 2 more days at least.

Anyone hear anything solid? Both of these reports were from yesterday.

I am hearing similar...all hearsay of course. Someone talked to a lineman this morning, and they keep getting close to energizing, but keep finding small things to fix first. "Likely coming on today."
