Re: Military no longer require a license

So I have a friend who is active military born in Ontario currently stationed out of province where he has a house. Does he have to buy a license when he comes back home on vacation (leave ) or comes to Kingston or Ottawa on course?

Logs float how would you ensure they sink all the way to the bottom and not lurk just under the surface. I`m dealing with the purchase of a $4500 lower unit ( thankfully...

Re: Hydrowave

I'm going to wait till they combine the unit with the Color-C-lector and the PH monitor.

Re: Bay of Quinte carp??

Re: Anyone do aluminum welding ?

That's a lt of welding looks like patching was already tried by someone without skill.

You may find what you would spend on welding plus the scrap value would put you not too far from a better boat.
