Re: Alachua county Airboat ordinance
I'm in court daily. Judges often don't have the cojones to make a ruling from the bench and look everyone in the eye when they do.... so they retreat to chambers to sign the decision in private.

Re: Hunting with Lights
The way to point out gators or frogs that the driver sees, but the harpoon person cannot, is to use a green laser. Get one at a gun show for less than $50.00. With only one headlamp, the driver is not going to be blinded.

Re: Mack’s Fish camp
Mack's Has a launch ramp all the way at the end of the road. It can be a little tricky. But it's a decent ramp. Plus it's right across from the levee crossing to Get in to the marsh. Plus, going down there you get to meet Marshall, who Is a great guy and can fill you in on the history of the area.

I tried to run between Garcia's and blue cypress about 2 months ago. It was dry then. I can't imagine trying it now. While I didn't get stuck, it was a pretty rough ride bouncing around between the high sides of the trail and running dry. I had three people with me and they didn't find it quite as e...

Was the motor removed when the boat was turned upside down to redo the poly? Thrust angle changed?
