Boat share!

Hi! Looking to buy a new boat that I was going to go in half with a friend, but he had to pull out last minute for personal reasons. Still want to buy the boat but don’t really want to take on the full price solo. Was thinking about renting out the boat here and there to offset some of my cost! I would captain it, but could take up to 15 people (legally) probably 10 comfortably. It’s a surf boat, so you can wakeboard, surf, or tube on it as well. Just wanted to see if there is any demand or interest for something like this in big bear?

2012 mastercraft x25 for $45k

Buying a 2012 mastercraft x25 with 400 hours. Comes with original tandem trailer. Everything seems to be in good-great condition. Was maintained through mastercraft and stored inside. Also it’s my #1 preferred color combo! Trying to determine if this is as good of a deal as I initially thought. I have tried to look at comps but exact comparison is tough to find.

I’m aware of the medallion issue for this year, seems as though it has had the update by mastercraft and it has not been an issue.

Looking for feedback/opinions! Also how much do you think I could resell for in the next 5 years.

ELI5 why it takes more water to steam one egg than it does to steam 5?

So I have this egg steamer and it comes with this handy little measuring device to tell you how much water it needed to cook X amount of eggs. It has three sides, one for soft, medium, hard. Soft requiring the least amount of water and hard, the most. That part is logical to me. The part I can’t understand, is why, on all three sides, does it require more water to steam less eggs?

Is this paint consistency normal?

First time painting a boat. Super bummed because I was all ready to prime! When I went to mix my primer (EZ Prime topside primer) it was totally separated. Water on top and almost like drywall putty on the bottom. This is brand new from west marine. Surely this is not normal right? Or do I just need a drill mixer?

Update #1 I mixed it with my 3D printed drill mixer and the consistency seemed perfect! Did a test patch. Will update again later to see if it dried correctly! Thank you for all the feed back!

Chevy 350 surprise

Tore down my Chevy 350 (marine) and found this nice surprise. Thought I’d share the glory with a group that could appreciate it! Guessing my intake manifold is the culprit. We shall see.
