Motor Boat in rear view

jbsjhn · 08-08-2008, 01:31 AM

Most people may have usually come across a boat motor while out boating or fishing. The motor is designed to pivot over the mounting, enabling it to steer the boat. The motor has its transmission leg in the water, which acts as a rudder when the propeller is not in power. When the boat is cutting its way through shallow waters, the unit can be retracted to prevent it from getting entangled with seaweeds or other obstructions.

Anyway, like I was sayin', shrimp is the fruit of the sea. You can barbecue it, boil it, broil it, bake it, saute it. Dey's uh, shrimp-kabobs, shrimp creole, shrimp gumbo. Pan fried, deep fried, stir-fried. There's pineapple shrimp, lemon shrimp, coconut shrimp, pepper shrimp, shrimp soup, shrimp stew, shrimp salad, shrimp and potatoes, shrimp burger, shrimp sandwich. That- that's about it

Captain Bligh, you've told your story of mutiny on the Bounty, how men plotted against you, seized your ship, cast you adrift in an open boat, a great venture in science brought to nothing, two British ships lost. But there's another story, Captain Bligh, of ten cocoanuts and two cheeses. A story of a man who robbed his seamen, cursed them, flogged them, not to punish but to break their spirit. A story of greed and tyranny, and of anger against it, of what it cost.

Hey!! Thanks for the info! I hope you have a fabulous day!

That day, for no particular reason, I decided to go for a little run. So I ran to the end of the road. And when I got there, I thought maybe I'd run to the end of town. And when I got there, I thought maybe I'd just run across Greenbow County. And I figured, since I run this far, maybe I'd just run across the great state of Alabama. And that's what I did. I ran clear across Alabama. For no particular reason I just kept on going. I ran clear to the ocean. And when I got there, I figured, since I'd gone this far, I might as well turn around, just keep on going. When I got to another ocean, I figured, since I'd gone this far, I might as well just turn back, keep right on going.

If you are caught in a survival storm, take charge
of the situation and rule your ship with an iron will. Deploy your sea anchor,
Employ heavy chafe gear.
Batten down the hatches (use hammer and nail if you have to). Jettison all potentially lethal
flying objects from the cabin - Set your house in order and
dig in for the battle to survive Establish a strict schedule for keeping
watch and getting rest. Appoint a similar discipline for eating. Avoid binging on food and avoid beverages containing alcohol
(the poison that weakens the will). KEEP BUSY.
Man the pumps. Repair damage as best as you can, stay sober, post watch, pray, and
never give up. Enforce a positive attitude, avoid despair like the plague, and
don't allow doubt and resignation to set into your crew. Not even for one second.
