Akin to you might be a redneck if.......

I thought of this while doing a home repair project this weekend.

You might be a boater if.......you attempt to repair a cracked fiberglass bathtub with 5200.

GhostShip

This is the best thread I have seen in awhile! I spit my beer out when I read the one about the NOAA report and making appointments.

Menzies

$200! How about $1100.

GhostShip

...........you don't own a "raincoat" and show-up at the office in yellow foul weather gear.

...........you can accurately estimate the wind speed by looking at a tree.

...You have a boat in the yard that hasn't run in 15 yrs. But you still tell the wife your going to fix it and go fishing.

--- You use 150lb rated snap swivels to replace the button that fell off of your pants and/or shorts...

--- You are driving down the road and will speed up just to take a look at the boat thats a few car lengths ahead.. Not because you necessarily like the boat, but because it is a boat, and you wanna look at it.

--- You are driving down the road with you girlfriend and you see a boat in the distance and accurately name the make, model, and engine manufacturer before you even get a good look at it and it is too far away to read a name or engine make on it.. Your g/f then proceeds to call you a dork..

Lazy_Iguana

You have red and green side lights that work installed on your desk at work.
