Grrr... My cat was vandalized on the beach. The only good thing is that my neighbors took pictures of the people and one followed them home. I filed a police report this morning and they are looking at a felony charge. What's really odd is that it was a Dad, teenager, and two small kids.... I just wonder what they were thinking.

Anyways, I need parts. In particular, I need to find a new tramp, down haul, and a sheet block and tackle. Any ideas for one of these cats? I'm sure I can substitute for other things, but the tramp has me stumped.

And, here it is a perfect day to sail. I'm off work, breeze, etc.

i keep some old sausage like fenders next to my beachcat to help roll it a couple of yards to the lake waters

1 day as i lifted 1 side of the boat to kick a fender under the hull i noticed it was all torn up and full of holes

asking around it turned out that a very nice lady thought it was washed up junk and so would make a goof tug-of-war toy for her german shepard

other times i find people sitting on my boats like they are beach furniture

once i watched 1 guy as he got off my boat and went back to his car for something

so i went and sat on the bonnet

"hey, get off my car!"

"as long as you stay off my boat!"

people just seem to park their brains once they get to a beach

seems they think everything on a beach is everyones
