It's not the hull shape, it's the water that's changed. Scientists around the world have observed this phenomenon and are very alarmed. Since all living beings need water, it means the end of life on this planet is approaching. But the scientists don't want to get embroiled in a big political discussion, and besides what's the point in worrying about it? Your full of it - water that is. ;) Clearly the dilithium and tritium crystals are causing a subspace distortion which is affecting the Earth's water supplies and can only be corrected by the proper application of tachyon particles through the deflector dish. Don't you guys know anything? ~~ sheesh ~~ Why didn't the guys at the marina know about this? Got me. It only takes the crew on Star Trek:TNG 30 minutes to figure out the deflector dish solution and another 14 minutes to make it so. I think it's time to post my question in one of the political newsgroups. This NG is fried. Totally fried. :-) Yep... Later, Tom |

That gets mixed into the gasoline, right? Along with the marbles to keep the gas from turning to gel at temps below 65 F? Marbles? Damn - they told me ball bearings!!!! Damn marina mechanics....

Check it out. www.dhmo.org But, that's proven science, you republicans don't have any room in your brains for science, Rush and Hannity takes to much... Well, there's always room for valid environmental concerns, when backed by real science. The insidious thing about dhmo is the addictive nature of it. Once humans become accustomed to a certain maintained level of ingestion, withdrawal is almost always fatal. This is truly an issue worthy of address, and to date no one is seeking action, from either side of the aisle. |

I hear other's like the rattle, they cover up those annoying grinding engine noises when idling. Regards, Ron "Doug Kanter" ... Yeah. That gets mixed into the gasoline, right? Along with the marbles to keep the gas from turning to gel at temps below 65 F? "networkin" I've heard of this odd behavior at the transom. I read in a manual something about changing your prop wash. Which rating synthetic marbles. The MP3 rating, so they sound good, with little space taken up? |

The bunks are where everybody sleeps while star trekkin' across the universe. I think this sounds like he could have a damaged warp core ... A new warp core should fix this, they can be ordered from www.warpcores-r-us.com. Also these cores should be replaced before antimatter can leak out.... These cores are touchy and most people arent careful enough which can lead to core failure... ![]() Matt |

Just keep running it as is and don't worry. After a time, you will become
accustomed to the spray, spray will become normal and problem of "weird transom spray" is solved. Evolution at it's finest ![]() "Doug Kanter" wrote in message ... We interrupt the political programming to bring you a boat question. My 14' Lund aluminum yacht has been exhibiting some odd behavior at the transom, and the last foot of the sides. Lots of spray. I've seen transom spray when the motor's been dragging a large clump of weeds, and spray from the sides when the boat's obviously (but rarely) overloaded. Now, I'm seeing a combination of both. Absolutely NOTHING about the boat has been changed, at least not by me. No accessories added or moved, and the motor hasn't banged against any obstructions, and its angle has not been adjusted in years. There is no bilge, so I'm positive it's not a matter of collected water. The boat's bottom has two strakes, about 8" out from the keel. The keel & strakes are in perfect condition - no dents, all rivets are tight and there's no debris snagged between the hull and the metal strips. There's an aluminum spray strip along each side, also in perfect condition. The problem seems the same whether the gas tank is full or near empty, which I mention in case anyone's still wondering about weight issues. If the hull had somehow become misshapen, perhaps by the trailer bunks, it seems it would be obvious, but perhaps not. How small a change to hull shape cause this type of thing? |

Wait...let me print this. I'll have it laminated and glue it to the seat.
