Reb-  there was an as seen on tv item once that you inserted in the egg and it scrambled it.  You then boiled it and when you cracked it open you had scrambled eggs AND third degree burns on your fingers.  I think that's what Del is referring to.  Lord knows it's hard to crack the eggs in a bowl and whisk with a fork for 5 seconds...

Well hell, ya still have to crack the shell to get 'em out......:lol:  Sorry, I don't mind some real food prep time without all the gadgets. I've got 2 nice Cuisinarts, but do I use them to shred, chop, julienne? Naa, I use my nice knives....I find it kind of relaxing, cutting, chopping, cooking...they're gathering dust.

no kidding.  Haul the cuisinart out.  Re-remember how to use it.  Chop the stuff and then spend ten minutes cleaning it.   OR  cut the stuff with a knife in five minutes and clean the knife on your pant leg and put back in knife block.  

Simple choice.

HA! Glad to hear I'm not the only one that wipes a knife off on my pant leg and puts it away again.

The proper way to clean a knife blade is swipe with wet sponge; wipe on pants leg, then back in block holder. :grin:

I stand corrected...that's how I do it too.  Sponge on both sides and then pants on both sides and then safely back in the knife block.

I have been doing it all wrong! I wipe my blade my lifting my foot off the ground then wiping the blade behind my knee getting both sides of the blade at the same time then put it in block. Keeps the front of my pants clean and I don't see what is behind me...

In the case of peanut butter on a butter knife, pull through squeezed fingers, lick blob of peanut butter off fingers, follow directions above.

    • Truly sorry to hear that duffman! I know that feeling.  Keep the good memories  
    • Chamois passed away this weekend a couple days short of her 13th bday. What a great dog to hang out with here at home and on distant adventures. Gonna miss ya big time my little big girl.
    • Sounds pretty sweet, alright. I will check them out, thanks.
    • If you really want to treat your wife (and yourself) with a remote operated trolling motor, the Minn Kota Ulterra is about easy as it gets.  Auto stow and deploy is pretty awesome.  You just have to turn the motor on when you go out and that the last time you have to touch it.   24V 80lb.  60 inch shaft is probably the right length for your boat.  They ain’t cheap - about $3k - but neither one of you would have to leave your seat to use it all day.
    • Wanderer, thanks for your reply. I do intend for it to be 24 volt, with a thrust of 70-80. Spot lock is a must (my wife is looking forward to not being the anchor person any more).  With my old boat we did quite a lot of pulling shad raps and hot n tots, using the trolling motor. Unlikely that we will fish in whitecaps, did plenty of that when I was younger. I also need a wireless remote, not going back to a foot pedal. We do a fair amount of bobber fishing. I don't think I will bother with a depth finder on the trolling motor. I am leaning toward moving my Garmin depth finder from my old boat to the new one, just because I am so used to it and it works well for me. I am 70 years old and kinda set in my ways...
    • Dang, new content and now answers.   First, congrats on the new boat!   My recommendation is to get the most thrust you can in 24V, assuming a boat that size isn’t running 36V.  80 might be tops?  I’m partial to MinnKota.     How do you plan to use the trolling motor is an important question too.     All weather or just nice weather?   Casting a lot or bait dragging?   Bobber or panfish fishing?   Spot lock?  Networked with depth finders?  What brand of depth finders?
    • We have bought a new boat, which we will be picking up this spring. It is an Alumacraft Competitor 165 sport with a 90 horse Yamaha motor. I will be buying and installing a trolling motor,  wondering if I can get some recommendations on what pound thrust I will want for this boat?  Also, I will be selling my old boat, is there a good way to determine the value on an older boat ( mid-80's with a 75 horse 2-stroke  Mariner motor)  I will appreciate any help with these questions.
