Another New Guy
I stumbled across the site while researching a 1996 Z215 Talari I found while looking for a nice cuddy. Long story short: Saw the boat, loved it, water tested it today and should have it in my possesion by Wednesday. She is in very good shape with a rebuilt 5.7L (30 hours since rebuild) and very few cosmetic issues. This will be my first boat so I have a good bit to learn. Off to do some more reading...

Congratulations. I'm sure you will love it and cant wait till u pick it up. There are heaps of helpful hints here in the forums to help you out.

Welcome to the board Mickey! Congrats on your new boat, I'm sure it'll be a great first boat for you! If you've got any questions, by all means ask, we're all here to help!!! :wink_thumbup:
PS-on a side note, thanks for your service to our country! |
Good luck with your boat. I just purchased a 2006 SX 21 last week. I can not wait until the spring to try her out.

Thanks guys. I'm sure I will come up with some questions once I get her in my grubby little hands and start the tear down for inspection. I've already started a short list of things that need to be done (if for nothing more than my peace of mind) and a rapidly expanding list of things I want to do. I just have to show some restraint and not take her too far apart since I'm getting a 4 day weekend for Veteran's Day next weekend and the wife will be out of town. That means I need to spend most of it on the water "testing". :wink_thumbup:

Post away and add some photos when you get the chance. Dont forget to put your pin on the members map too mate. |
If I may offer a word of advice... Put your boat away immediately. Find another boat ASAP, borrow, cheat or steal. Take it out for a week or two. Bump it around, launch it, retrieve it, dock it. Finally, you take your Mariah out... and just then you may revel in the glory that is the awesomeness of your 12 year old boat. It so hard to appreciate the Mercedes you're born into if you haven't driving a Yugo first.

That's some good sound advice right there. :yes_grin:
|
can someone give me instructions on how to post a message. I am new to this site. thanks

How can we help? As it looks like you've already figured out how to "post" to post to an existing thread, I assume you mean how to start a new "thread" (question), is this correct? WetWilly |
yes, that is correct. I want to know how to post a new post (thread)
|
At the top left of each sub-forum there is a "New Thread" button. :wink_thumbup:

Hi flood,
Z202's correct, in each "Main" Forum (circled in red) you'll see "sub" Forums (circled in blue). http://i66.photobucket.com/albums/h2...umpage2a-1.jpg Go to the main Forum, then click on the appropriated sub Forum you want to post your new topic, announcement or question in. On the sub forum page you will find in the upper left of the page the "New Thread button" Z202 was referring to (circled in red). http://i66.photobucket.com/albums/h2...rumpage4-1.jpg Click on it and you will see this page. Here you will enter the title of your new topic, announcement or question. (circled in red), then type your new topic, announcement or question in the "Message" box (circled in blue) http://i66.photobucket.com/albums/h2...rumpage5-1.jpg To see how your post will look, click on the "Preview Post" button at any time (circled in green), make any changes if needed and when you're satisfied it looks the way you want, click on the "Submit New Thread" button and it will be posted for all to see. If you want to add pictures to your post, see this tutorial, click here. So give it a try and if you need anymore help, ask away! WetWilly |
