Found the Briggs & Stratton 4 stroke 5 hp outboard in Craigslist a few weeks back in Oldsmar for $225. Yesterday I drove down to Lakeland after finding this WaterTender 11.3 with trailer for $250 also from Craigslist. This little gem will get me to some remote beaches accessible only by boat. I figure by finding a few gold wedding bands, it'll more than pay for itself in the course of a year.
It will also serve as a base when I use my hookha rig and need something to hold onto when resting between dives. Treasure of a deal, isn't it? :icon_thumleft: :coffee2:

Having done the hookah thing setting in the boat I would suggest someone stay in the boat while your under and still fly a divers flag. Other boaters are stupid and will think it is a free floating boat ready for a raid. They don't know what a divers flag means either. Nice setup, now get a waterproof camera for the nice pics.

It might be November before I can get out again. Last week I stumbled in the living room and tried to recover but my right foot rolled under me and it felt like I tore tendons and ligaments off the bone as I came down onto it. The photo shows that the swelling has gone down a lot and my toes aren't as black as they were a few days ago. This is what a broke foot looks like.
There is never a right way to land in a fall. I have to wear this Goofy boot whenever I do any walking and with a crutch. I get the results of the CT Scan on Tuesday. It could be 3 weeks or 3 months, depending on the injury. :icon_thumleft: :coffee2:

Ouch Flauthor, twisted feet are never fun. Well at least you have time to kick back and maybe get some research in :).
