    I run the raider on my boat. I borrowed a boat last yr while mine was in shop that had the new X-4 on it, It seems the X-4 tracks to the current more than I am used to with the raider. I would run the raider after being able to compare them both. The coated cable is the way to go!

    Pulled this from the watertown times! Maybe some good news! Legislature opposed to wind farms in the lake By NANCY MADSEN TIMES STAFF WRITER WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 17, 2010 ARTICLE OPTIONS A A A A wind power project on an island is OK, but turbines in the lake are not. The Jefferson County Board of Legislators' Planning and Development Committee passed on Tuesday night a resolution opposing the New York Power Authority's plan to put a wind farm in Lake Ontario. NYPA has asked for developers to submit proposals on building towers for up to 500 megawatts of wind power in possible sites in Lake Ontario and Lake Erie. This action came two weeks after the legislators approved a payment-in-lieu-of-taxes agreement for the proposed 252-megawatt Galloo Island Wind Farm. ADVERTISEMENT "While I certainly intend to support it at the full board, my concern is our inconsistency in our message," Legislator Scott A. Gray, R-Watertown, said. Mr. Gray is not a member of the committee. "We're opposing a project with some of the very same things we approved a few weeks ago with the Galloo Island project." The resolution included language that the NYPA project would hurt landowners, "including potential effects on real estate values, scenic vistas, and quality of life." Chairman Barry M. Ormsby, R-Belleville, disagreed. "The two projects, when compared side-by-side, are apples and oranges," he said. "One project is on a 2,200-acre island six-and-a-half miles offshore where 84 turbines will be confined." He acknowledged that a certain section of the shoreline will see the turbines. "But compared to the possible NYPA sites on the maps, you see a total littering of the Eastern basin from Tibbets Point to Mexico Bay," he said. The six members of the committee at the meeting approved the resolution, which the full board will consider on March 2.

    We just had the BEST time at Okachobee Outfitters in Lorida FL. Dad shot 2 pigs, My girlfriend got her first ever Big game animal (Hog), and I got a Nice pig. Not the big one I was looking for as I held out but ran out of time. We are goin back the end of Sept after salmon season is over!!!!! I highly recommend this hunt it is a blast and Extremely affordable! For the cost of an 8hr charter you can pig hunt for 2 days including lodging and meals both of which are First class!!!! These pigs are harder to hunt than I thought they would be! Marlene's first Big game animal! She is totally hooked!!!! Dads first pig (85pd Sow) My 105 pd Sow Dads 99 pd Boar the teeth had fallin out You all have to try this!!!!!

    From what I have heard the DEC being a state agency is already supporting this project. I think there hands are tied. Should be interesting State of the Lake Meetings this spring as I know I will be bringing up the topic on our end. Brian

    Stick with one wheel. L&M's suggestion with the cable thru the transom(it goes thru a boot) is the standard hookup. I would steer the kicker as it will give you more control. Good Luck with her!! Brian

    This is a very sad Day for the Great Lakes as we all know it. It will NEVER be the same again. All of those legislators should be embarrased that they allowed this to happen on there watch just to fill the county bank accounts. Very sad day indeed.............. Brian

    What is SAD is that the town of Hounsfield is a summer house community, so of course they are doing this in January! How typical! My girlfriend luckly just sold her waterfront home there this summer. Back door, Dark of night politics as usual, just makes me sick!
