Is it this cooler/dry box? LINK if so, yeah that one sucks for holding ice. I have a little lifetime 20 qt thats about the same price and holds ice for 4 to 5 days.

I have that one. And yea, it sucks. I'm tempted to drill some holes in it and fill it with foam. Like they should have done at the factory.

My son broke his hamate bone in High School. If I remember right he had his surgery on 4/19. At 7 weeks post-surgery he was at 80 - 85% and was back playing ball again in summer league. Its more of a pain tolerance thing for most players. I've read some players are back at 4-5 weeks. My son's recovery followed the exact same timeline as Warren Morris'. I know cause I had emailed Warren Morris asking about his recovery and he responded giving me the details. Which I was highly appreciative of.

About 3 weeks ago, as I was about to leave WallyWorld, I watched an older gentlemen (70ish) diving a fairly brand new Chevy Silverado slam into a parking lot stop sign. The ones that are reinforced with concrete at the bottom half. Ol' boy throws in reverse and goes park. Gets out and looks at the damage for about 1 second. Then walks into store. Like it was no big deal. He thoroughly screwed up his front bumper and grille. At the minimum. There were no other moving vehicles or pedestrians in that area at the time. I thought to myself, how the hell does this happen? Are you drunk at 9:00am?Texting? What the hell?

This is correct. An aluminum prop will "flex" under load. And give you more RPMs than a same size and pitch SS prop.

This morning, with the Aluminum prop, I reached 6400 RPMs. Yamaha recommendation for the F70 is 6300 RPMs. So, with a SS prop pitched at 14 I should be perfect.

Couple years ago I bought a brand new Yamaha F70. The dealer initially put a 13 pitch SS prop on it. The RPMs were too high for that outboard - per the manufacturer's recommendations. I went back to dealer to get a 14 pitch prop but the prop manufacturer that he carries does not make a 14 pitch prop. So the dealer gives me a SS 15 pitch prop instead. Acceptable, but could be better. The hole shot took a noticeable hit, as well as the acceleration.

Fast forward to last weekend. and I hit some concrete. Didn't hit hard but enough to bend the 15 pitch prop. So, I take the now bent 15 pitch prop to a reputable prop guy. He tells me he can absolutely fix the bent prop to look brand new again. (for $150 + tax). We were talking numbers that i get out of the prop. So, I tell him that I thought a 14 pitch would be the best pitch for that boat and motor combination. He tells me that he can "re-pitch" that prop also. I didn't know that was possible. but it is. Told him I'll get back with him on the re-pitching part.

Since I got a 2 week wait for the bent prop fix I ordered an el cheapo aluminum 14 pitch prop off of Amazon. I take the aluminum prop for a ride this morning. I was correct on the 14 pitch prop being the best pitch for that boat/motor combination. Noticeably better hole shot and acceleration. Just better all around. It would be perfect if it were stainless steel.

So now I figure since my SS prop is being worked on I may as well get it re-pitched also and get the best performance out of everything. For a price, of course.

Just wondering if anyone has had a prop re-pitched and if there were any regrets afterward.

I had that Heather Thomas poster hanging in my bedroom as a teenager. :pimp:

I guarantee that you can get more than that. A lot more!

My son just bought a 2026 RAM 1500 BigHorn with the 5.7L HEMI.
He absolutely loves his truck. Very good ride for a truck. Seems well built. The RAM Boxes in the bed are the shite. Very nice!

I personally would not have bought that truck only because of eTorque. But that was his decision.

If the Radiology report DOES NOT specifically say "cholelithiasis" (gallstones) and only mentions "large mass" then your sister would be in need of a CT Abdomen with IV contrast (at the minimum). Her GP should consult with the Radiologist and see if oral contrast is recommended as well. And you may as well do the pelvis while you're at it.

The wording on Radiology reports means A LOT !

Good luck.

Yamin only had 1 pass ball….and Guidry hopped it 5 feet in front of him. You could still put him at catcher, Serna at 1st, Bide DH

This ^^^^

This would be your best defensive and most productive offensive lineup.

You could also rotate Braun(L) and Bide(R) as DH depending on pitching matchups.
