    marine batteries

    I look around and see who offers the best or longest pro rated warranty and buy using that rather than brand. Another thing to remember when buying marine batteries or deep cycle is a misnomer that they have more reserve or can crank longer than a normal battery which is false. Deep cycle...

    Missouri river snow pack feed?

    I should have expanded on their conversations, the ones who have been boat fishing claim there are a lot more sand bars exposed and most who are boating it in the area are finding it hard to navigate as well not being able to yet find good channels between washburn and Wilton. Sounds like more...

    Wind

    Just did a week long Caribbean cruise and had 20-25 Knot winds everyday and then add the 18-25knots the ship was cruising into or slightly across it made for some very choppy seas while cruising and on the top deck of the ship where I spent most of my time was extremely windy. I'll take SW...

    Missouri river snow pack feed?

    Thanks for the response Obi, yes this is what I was going for in the question. I have several co-workers from the Washburn area and all have been talking of the low river levels in the area and some have lived there in the area their whole lives and can not remember a time when the water level...

    Missouri river snow pack feed?

    Anyone heard what the western snow pack has been this winter and what the lake levels are going todo? Was having a discussion about it at work the other day and nobody has heard what the snow pack was or what to expect for the Missouri river system water levels coming up this year. Was brought...

    Windows 10

    I just upgraded to 10 from 8 and it was huge improvement, 8.2 was the worst of the worst ever. From all IT gurus windows 7 is dangerous as it is not going to be supported if at all in the near future for security purposes so other than browsing the net one best not be using 7 on a computer you...

    New to Sakakawea

    I have 2 pair of the glass Costa 580G glasses, one green for water one blue for every day and driving. Wife has 580P plastic and they are surprisingly durable too, she can destroy and scratch anything including her regular glass lens glasses pronto and the Costas have held up excellent for about...

    New to Sakakawea

    Ha Ha, I was on that lake one time and was not impressed but I had Green tinted Costa sun glasses an several people who boat there regularly were riding with me and thought I was going looney with all the zig zagging I was doing, and finally asked what the heck I was doing. I told them I was...

    Remove Plug From Boat Law

    We have it really easy, I have been to numerous other states where you have to go through a check point and wash down station no matter what in order to leave a boat ramp. They inspect you both ways, before you put the boat in and then coming off, not all have wash down stations though.

    Price of having a well drilled

    Not to mention if watering for cattle off rural water gets expensive fast, I know of several people who can rack up close to a grand a month rural water bills watering cattle in pastures with no other water sources or rancid water issues.

    Price of having a well drilled

    Just give Backman well drilling in Wilton a call, Rex can give you all the answers you need. From what I hear they are more reasonable than most others as well. Might check with the county ASCS office as well, there are a lot of programs that will pay part of the costs associated with drilling...

    Boat Ramp Etiquette

    500 bucks for a slip is a steel in comparison to Bis/man. A slip for a toon here is North of a grand per season at all the marinas. Wife and I jump around too much to justify a slip, maybe on Sakakawea one day and the river the next day some weekends. Plus I am too picky about my boat, can't...

    Boat Ramp Etiquette

    I only tried that a few times before just going up and buying seasonal ramp passes at Misty Waters marina, much better for loading a pontoon. I have done that ever since, 200 bucks a year is cheap for not having to fuss around in the current and possibly damage something.

    How do you deal with "anti's"

    I deal with this a lot with my line of work in the coal industry. We travel a lot and the issue comes up a lot when people find out what I do and then it is fun dispelling the myths, most walk away with a different way of thinking about things versus what they hear on the news or papers.

    Boat Ramp Etiquette

    If one can afford a boat with $150K++ worth of engines alone I don't think one would have any worries about the fuel bill.
