That Contender is the 36' Open. According to a dealer on the Gulf of Mexico, with 2 guys and a light load of fuel it'll run in the mid 60's, which is humping right along for a 36'er. As for the rods and reels, those boys in the picture are running outriggers (essentially long-ass downrigger arms). They drag a daisy chain at a minimum depth to stir up the water and provoke a strike from a Marlin, Sail, Tuna or whatever. At that point, the line releases from the outrigger and goes to the rod. Penn reels are world class...right up there with Finn Nor. you crack me up dude. you musta fished eastcoast. left coast guys use a lot of shimano these days. and its 'fin nor'. your 'running outriggers (essentially long-ass downrigger arms)' description is weird. stop it. and i was wrong about the spincasting rods: theyre BOTH set backwards. a heavy strike could pull the ring guides off the rod. but why would anyone troll with spincasting outfits anyway? thats fucked up dude. maybe as a drop back rod. but east coast guys dont do that much. fukit. its their line twist not mine. what you dont see in the picture is the kidney belts those guys need when theyre running topspeed. 60+ is fukin fast.

a couple of notes about boltin/ trad issues
lummox replied to glassgowkiss's topic in Climber's Board
off-white has messed with this thread to the point that it makes no sense to me anymore. glasskowpiss takes single subjective observations and makes generalized conclusions. there are many examples of where bolting affected access. yosemite. city of rocks. cave rock. and on and on. btw 3 'points' are not a 'couple'. ah screw it. im too 'poped' out to underscore further inaccuracies. later fools. -
note in the top picture that they be trolling the corners with spincasting reels and the port side corner rod is backwards. plus only one a da trolling rods got roller guides. course all their shit is penn so wtf do they know? but i bet that boat will go 50 knot per hour no problem.

is for theres enough of that shit in europe. no need for it here even if euro tourons dont like to see gumbyfailure pieces stuck in cracks. bolt a tard

whatever. contender boats are popular in florida where people like to haul ass over the flats and wind chop and swell are not big issues. the pacific is a different beast and larger deep-v hulls are typical. unless you a redneck launching your dory from pacific city.

quite gay! as if north americans ever competed at the level of the eurofags or even cared to. i am convinced that this need to measure yourself against other nationalities stems from a deep seated sense that your native country fuckin sucks.

vegas is superfun if you got a lot of money. but even just layin out by the pool at one a the big casinos is interesting. i spent an afternoon at the rio playing the realorplastictits guessing game. and if you want to know a secret: climbs in the shade are very nice.

i think some docs can just shoot it with something so it drops off. then it will grow back without the fungi. maybe. toes are aid anyhow. just ask reinhold messner.

Probably because it was based on a good novel of the same name by David Brin, I recommend it. Boundary Dam up in the NE corner of the state made a guest appearance in the movie, I thought that was the high point... omfg i can't believe you called a crappy david brin novel "good" have you no taste? dude. i thought that novel was great. up until when the goverment experiment steroid freaks showed up. but the toothbrush obsessive main character i could really relate to.

A man goes to confession and says, "Bless me Father, for I have sinned. Last night I was with seven different women." The priest thinks this over to determine what penance he should give this sinner. Finally, he says, "Take seven lemons, squeeze them into a glass and drink the juice without pausing." "Will that cleanse me of my sins, Father?" , asks the parishioner. "No" replies the priest, "But it'll wipe that grin off your face.
