Thanks Jessie, It is a 23' Seaway built in Maine in 1981. I've owned it since 1987. Seaway is long gone The molds are presently being used by Eastern Boats but they made a few changes, and the 23' is no longer available.You are absolutely right the design is definitely taken from the Novi/Maine Lobster boat genre. There are still some Nova Scotian built boats used in the Commercial Fishing fleet around here, not as many as there used to be however. It would be a great boat for Lake Union and Peugot Sound!

    I haven't ridden the Bullet in really heavy rain yet, so would be a little worried about possible electrical problems in a downpour.

birdmove I had the same concern.

Every mile I ride instead of drive saves precious gas money for other purposes.

 To prevent moister intrusion and shorting I separated all the wiring connectors and filled them with dialectic grease until it was oozing out the back and plugged them back together. We have done this on all of our vehicles since we were teenagers.

  Even in down pours where the lack of visibility forced me to pull over I have not had one electron stray from its path.
No matter where you go, there, you are.

Thanks. I posted a bunch of other 'today's ride' pictures similar to those in the Interesting Trips section of the gallery, just stuff around the local area.

What I want to see is a picture of Clamp's New Year's Day 'getting-dragged-back-into-the-house-by-the-missus' ride.  ;D

I must retreat to my place of Zen and meditate on this.

I find it hard to believe anyone fell for that. Same manner of spelling and grammatical errors, use of hyphens, paragraph spacing and indentation, writing style. I thought it was pretty obvious.

Miss Vera, keeping our Br. Clampo -- that is, Clampy to you -- away from his beloved Bullet is causing him extensive psychological trauma.  As you read the quotation above, you can see that he's taking on your personality.  Miss Vera, I beg you for the love you feel for your Clampy -- that is, Br. Clampo to us -- to please take the paint brush off his hand and replace it with the keys to his RE motorbike!

Cordially yours,

Cabo Cruz (a.k.a. Papa Juan)
