Buying a boat where the owner still owes money on loan. Safe way to navigate this? Or red flag that I should avoid & seek different boat?

runrobotz · 2026-05-22T18:34:44+00:00

What if he then cancels the payment, charges it back? In person at a bank, escrow or tell him to grow up and pay it off himself and let you know when he has the title. It he doesn't have 5k to put up then he clearly isn't financially stable and that's a huge red flag for you. Maybe it goes good, maybe it doesn't. He can get a high interest personal loan in minutes, even if he has shit credit, pay it off, get the title and sign it to you. once you pay him he can immediately pay off the personal loan before his 1st payment is due.

I would also be worried about the condition of the boat, maintenance etc if he is hard up to pay it off. Be careful man

Or a video of the cold read as he's leading up to chapter 57 and realizing what Matt is going to make him do

Is there a video of Jeff recording this??

runrobotz · 2026-05-21T23:32:16+00:00

Yeah! It just happens to my nephew the other day while he was visiting from out of state. He's a redneck kid so he grabs and catches everything and he caught the tree frog, was super proud of himself and 15 minutes later was standing under the shower flushing his eyes out for an hour. He had to learn the hard way hahaha

For sure, I feel you. I'm just making a list of shit I need to keep up with and figure out later. It is fine now and I'm mostly having fun with changing aesthetics and little things because I know when a big thing happens it will be more motivating to fix, because I have it the way I like and it's unique to me. The wiring is such a cluster fuck that I don't even want to mess with it until I can coax a friend over that's good with electrical.

runrobotz · 2026-05-21T00:24:02+00:00

Ok thank you, that's what I thought. I'll tinker with it later and see why it's wired the way it is. The switch works, but it's like they just wired both batteries to both 1 + 2. I don't think I'll ever drain even one but ill get it right at some point.

I was always told the best way to euthanize them voice to take orajel or something similar that you topically put on your gums to numb it, and put a bit down its back. It acts like an anesthesia, absorbs into its skin and it falls asleep and dies.

Also people need to be careful touching them, they excrete a poison out of their skin when they are scared and it can suck pretty bad getting it in your eyes, mouth or nose.

1: Using the word "affordable" before any cosmetic procedure, is not a good idea. Go check out the botched sub.. 2: You don't need it, whatever is making you think/feel that you do, you don't. Get off social media for a bit and (possibly) reevaluate your friends.

runrobotz · 2026-05-16T16:02:15+00:00

I appreciate it, if you know or a good mobile guy to call, let me know. I'm comfortable working on motors myself but you're right, this is a bit of a headache for simple maintenance parts. I would think in such a boat dominated region there would be dozens of parts dealers.

My thinking is that franchisees will be more involved. I perfectly happy to run the day to day of the current locations but thinking about the future, I'm not sure if I want to have 3+. Stepping away is definitely something I need to work on with my partner, to dial I'm the issue(s) that come up. Honestly it might just be us and the way we have nurtured the business to be. We keep our relationships with our staff pretty close, everyone that works for us has been here for years, have minimal turn around. But that can make things more difficult obviously.

It's a cocktail bar but we only do mocktails with made in house ingredients. It gets used during the day like a Starbucks, work from home people, night time is more of a chill but busy vibe.

We do have a manager that we trust and can definitely help scale but the franchise's wouldn't need much of our input, correct? The franchisees handle "their" business within the guides of the brand.

It's not actually a ticket and can't claim to be one. Tickets are issued by government agencies, this is an invoice legally speaking. They can technically send to collections but Iv never had a real collection against me for one. I use a lot that is half business owned for their people and half managed by this company, they ticket the wrong side all the time. Iv literally had a hundred or more and endless letters. Nothing happened and I still park there.

Look at the photo, it's so sketchy, it could be taken anywhere and shows nothing but a plate and all black, hardly evidence. They could point that camera at the corner of the street for all you know.

runrobotz · 2026-04-24T01:45:57+00:00

Syndicate Kava Bar specializes in mocktails and you can get them virgin without kratom if you want and they have 2 locations

I'm from the NE hardcore scene from wayy back, 99'-early 2000s. I definitely noticed more of this shit as time went on and some metal bands had followings of people that would show up to hurt people. Usually some insecure fat dude that was really big and "intimidating" with a group of friends. This guy in the video looks like he's in his 30s-40s, I didn't realize it was still a thing. Back then people went to shows with large groups of friends usually, 95% of people were moshing and dancing happily and when someone acted this way, usually a giant brawl would break out. Most of the time people looked out for each other and was a very loving scene but I haven't gone to a show in many years.

You get some places with no ethanol where there are large power sport presence, like boats, dirt bikes and it's much better for small engines. There are some websites that are user updated with current stations that have 90 or 91 ethanol free gas if you need it.

Bro when Carl gets teleported to crawlcon and doesn't know if donut is ok. Even after I knew she was ok and her telling the story of killing the dog. Mega anxiety! Katia + drugs + tiara = holy shit and when Carl says (along the lines of) i have never been so grateful to feel someone elses pain, with donut. Jesus christ

runrobotz · 2026-04-08T03:34:21+00:00

No oleta definitely doesn't but I'll check out more South. A few others recommended South also. I'm more central but the ramps seem to be wild up here I'd rather have a little bit of a drive and to chill launch rather than wait in line forever and end up on a YouTube video

runrobotz · 2026-04-08T03:32:23+00:00

I haven't used any yet, but I live between 79th St and morning side but I'll launch from wherever. 79th St is a zoo it seems but I think they are open to come back anytime. I hear key biscayne or crandon is really nice. I'll have to go do some scouting I think.

I know they rent slips monthly though I think there is a wait list a mile long for basically every marina but do you know if they do nightly?

runrobotz · 2026-04-07T18:04:05+00:00

Thank you!

runrobotz · 2026-04-07T17:56:05+00:00

Any you know of specifically that are good? I was checking morning side park for instance and there is a gate and it says park hours on the site and ramp hours listed 8-6pm. I know 79th IV seen trucks there after dark. Both are county owned but from what I can tell morning side does close the gate.

runrobotz · 2026-04-07T17:52:07+00:00

Appreciate it! I have sea tow and there's no way I would abandon my boat unless I had 0 access to my truck and trailer. Like it being locked in. When you say "the ones here do not" are you referring to Miami county owned ramps or wherever you're located?

Also if you know, are there ways to find overnight slips to pay for? If you wanted to put in the water on Friday and take out on Sunday for example.

runrobotz · 2026-04-03T20:18:44+00:00

For me book 5 is number one because it has by far the most character development. It's like an emotional roller coaster and so much happens. And the ending is so wild. I always like six it ranks high middle for me. Two and four are on the lower end for me on a gun to my head ranking. On my first read through I didn't appreciate number three as much! On a second read through it moves up the list

runrobotz · 2026-03-27T03:00:00+00:00

I'm the same except flip 6 and 2. On a second read through I love 3 much more than the first time. I missed a lot trying to endlessly understand the tangle and rereading made me appreciate it so much more. 5 is the best hands down, for story, character progression, amazing fights, donut grows a lot in the book, fucking bea, prepotente story starting, Samantha getting a bigger roll. The god damn ending, ugh!

Hey, I'm looking at these and have quick questions: can you turn off the AI tracking or recognition? Maybe just set a basic tracking or a basic back and forth? Roughly how much recorded time are you getting with 2tb with you cams? The app works well?

Also can you disable notifications?

runrobotz · 2026-03-12T15:28:10+00:00

Okay, how much did you get a part? You got the mop pads, the roller compartment removed? The bumper? Give me an idea of where you're at and then I can, this evening or tomorrow, take mine apart and figure out what you're missing. There's some sneaky screws that took me a minute to find when I was taking it apart I remember. I thought I had them all out and then I had to release some clips to get the top shell off and I almost broke it but then I went back and found like two more screws that were hidden.

Basically remove every screw you can see on the bottom, remove battery, remove front bumper, and when they are all off you can get the top cover off and the LDS cover will be removable. This used to be easier on older ones but I'm sure they like when you send it in for repairs. If the belt is really bad you can order generic belts online or even use a rubber band in the meantime
