New members: Don & Cheryl

[DonS]

New members a few months ago. Still getting our feet wet, but having a great time. Have enjoyed all the banter and info on the site. We're boaters by background and starting to understand the different systems. Headed to Riverbend for the weekend, if anyone is around, please stop and say hello. Supposed to be in site 147. Don

Welcome to POG, Don & Cheryl! It's about time you stopped lurking and posted something! Be sure to add a signature for your posts listing the model, year, and converter of your coach, where "home" is and any other info you wish to share. By now, you've realized that the only "stupid" questions here are the ones not asked. Bring your warped sense of humor, your thick skin, your love of fun and jump in with both feet! Oh - and be sure to hide your sheep if you got 'em!

Welcome Don & Cheryl !!!

Don & Cheryl,

Welcome to POG! Give us a little update- what converter built your bus. What year is it? etc.

I have never stayed at Riverbend, but I've heard it is really nice.

Enjoy that "new to you" Prevost!

Years ago I had 2 Bertrams: the first was a 1981 38' Mark III sportfish. I loved it. We did mostly bluewater fishing (marlin, wahoo, tuna, & dolphin). We did some cruising to the Bahamas - Walker's Cay to Green Turtle and HopeTown. Those were some fun days - marine diesel in the USA was .50/gallon. My second boat was a 1986 Bertram 38' - it had 3208 CATs! I thought we were flying at 22 knots. Today, I'll bet the same size boat cruises around 30 knots!

What kind of boat did you guys have?

Tuga,My new boat does at least 40.

Beautiful boat Jack, but I was referring to a sport-fish model. I should have made that clearer.

I love the lines on yours though!

Don & Cheryl,

Welcome to POG!!

You can't beat South Florida in the winter for enjoying your bus. There's a wealth of knowledge and experience represented among the POG membership, so don't be bashful if you have a question or concern. On occasion, we even have correct answers!

Congratulations on your bus!

Well heck, Going to miss Don & Cheryl at Riverbend will be in Stuart for Super Bowl Rally and will not be able to see Ronald and Gabi and Olivia. Leaving Bluewater Sunday. Woul till Aprild have love to see that coach in the "flesh". I guess I move around to much, but will be back in Riverbend 8=10 Feb.

Jack, thinking that 40 mph would be about half throttle.
