Got milk?

Fish On Fridays.

Okay, I've got nothing. The juices just aren't flowing, so let's watch some animated fish bop up and down.

Downwind Sailing.

I'm confused, Joe. I thought that this blog was a half way house for wahines in bikinis? This isn't a photo of some buxom babe strolling half naked across the deck of a mega sailing yacht. Does that unusual craft have a cup holder?

Goat Surfing.

Two goats named Goatee and Pismo are wowing SoCal beachgoers with their surfing skills.

Boat Of The Day.

What is it, Joe? Hot Tub Time Machine?

Hot Tub Boats is a concept born out of necessity.  Ok, maybe it was a bit more of a “want” but sometimes the line between the two is a bit blurry.  That’s what living on a boat through many,  wet Seattle winters will drive one to create.

Hot Tub Boats is an independent business in the Seattle Metro area. Concept, design, build and execution have all been in-house by a small, devoted team of shipwrights.  We are committed to preserving our community, job growth and protecting our valuable and abundant waterways.

Our free thinking environment allowed us to break the mold and create a Revolutionary design.  By merging classic wooden boat design with radical concepts we created a truly one of a kind vessel.

What is the Hot Tub Boat experience?

Hot Tub Boats offers one of the most luxurious and magical experiences.  More specifically, we provide comfort and relaxation, with a revolving scenery of a beautiful and extraordinary city or any remote location.

Is It The Weekend Yet?

I need some cheap rum!

On second thought maybe I should stay away from the sauce. I'm starting to see hallucinations out on the water. Wait a second, that's not a hallucination. Maybe somebody else should stay off the sauce.

What Else Is A Laser Good For?

I wonder, do you think the Tillerman is a SUL (Stand Up Laser) paddler?

Talk About An Off Road Vehicle!

Oh yes boys and girls, it's Da-Woody piloted by Capt. Dennis St.Onge.
He can be spotted around the waters off of San Diego with his parrot.

And Now For Something Completely Different, Cats.

I was inspired to search out for an odd cat related video by a couple (CA and Pat) of folks living in New Mexico.
Ca me donne un mal de tête !

What Is It, Joe?

It looks like a trailer.

Yep, it's a trailer.

Joe, I didn't know you blogged about camping.

How exciting!

Wow, not much of a camper.

Oh look, a lake.

Hm, I didn't see this one coming.

La, la, la, la.

I am a sailor man, I go floating in a tin (more likely polycarbonate) can.

Ok, I've just got to ask, why?

Boat + Bike =

I don't know. But who cares, there's a wahine on board.

Quack!

I suddenly feel like I'm in a strange Italian movie from the sixties.

Whatever Dude.

Thanks, Vlad.

Why Don't You Just Sail A Keelboat? [Part Two]

Try doing this with your Beneteau.
On second thought, maybe using this photo is not such a great idea. It must be a son of gun to get that cat on and off the roof rack.

Via Conjuminando, who got it from Velablog, who read al post di Francesco Vado pazzo per Cindy, who found Cindy here.

Fish On Fridays.

Strange fish?
God bless the people who go to Burning Man!
