I chose Havasu Doug because it is a friendly boating atmosphere and I've found that everyone try's to help everyone without harrassment and everyone seems to treat everyone with respect. Furthermore, I have never seen anyone on this forum talking $hit about someones boat unless joking.

HD's place is great I like to call it home but I enjoy the pure volume of info available on HotBoat, I have never really participated in the drama. I also like OSO they have a east coat influence I enjoy and I'm a closet offshore wanabe.

Hmmmm....... :rolleyes

This is a no-brainer for me. This board is my favorite for 2 reasons.

Firstly, it is set up just the way I like it. (How did that happen? :stupid

)

Secondly and more importantly, I like the group of peeps and the style in which they post here. Peeps seem to post less dramatically here with little or no quarreling.

Agreed!

You know, I have been noticing that there are an awful lot of Pisces on this forum. Maybe that's why this forum is so great

Well, HavasuDoug's of course.

No drama, good peeps.

But I bounce all over all day long (or used to anyway

), KH's new place has a lot of potential, Hot Boat for a good argument, RRL for the T-Shirts, and then all the others.

I post on a lot of the boards and DougÃ¢â‚¬â„¢s was not the first board I joined but it is the one I always come back to. I like the little group of people here. We all make a conscious effort not to start any drama and get along (something not seen on any other board except maybe KHÃ¢â‚¬â„¢s) If I had to choose one this would be the one.

As a matter of fact this summer will be my 30th birthday and Lindsey and I were talking about having a get together for it at the lake and inviting members of the boards. I thought that it would be fun but one of my stipulations was that it was just the members of DougÃ¢â‚¬â„¢s. So I guess that shows how I feel about this place. :good

So your going to invite RD too? j/k

Better start working on those plans there Brad. I know I have all my river dates set up until October, even then I still pretty much know what dates I'll be going out. Thats if we are invited. lol

Dougs site my #1 choice if you cant tell from my post count.
KH's new site is good for some quality post whoring & all around fun.
RRL too me is a mix of all the boards.
Barneys is good to check out some good T&A
OP6 is cool to keep up with the op6 crew
Hot Boat is good for drama and more drama
Kwicherbichen I like the site set up, but I just dont post on it.

Those are the only sites I lurk & post on in order.

Everyone is welcome.... No one is safe.

River Who?

We are trying to figure out where we are going to have it. I prefer to go to San Antonio. But I know that all of this crew prefers the river. So I have to decide if I want to go where I want or if I want to hang out with you guys. :stupid

OhÃ¢â‚¬Â¦..Monique is invited but you canÃ¢â‚¬â„¢t come! :bebe

A San Antonio trip sounds good to me! :good

I had a great time last year.

Even though a small group posts here on a regular basis, the key peeps on most of the other boards are registered here too. That could end up being a pretty big trip! :good

Same here.

I think of all of us from here, RRL, OP6C, HB's, LVHB, KB's, etc as HOT BOATERS! :good

It's like always belonging to your high school. Peeps come and go, but you're always a part of it.
