I love Chris Craft boats. I'm a land lubber and don't know shit about what it takes to own or maintain such a craft, but rumor has it "if you own a wooden boat, you have a job for life." That said, I love this boat despite not having any place to use it (no heat exchangers means no ocean from what I'm told):

If you cannot Debauch because you get an IP blacklist error, try Debauching again time. It may work immediately, it may take a few attempts. It will work eventually, I don't think I had to click debauch more than three times. Someone is overzealous at our hosting company, but only on the first couple of attempts.
If you have problems logging in, posting, or doing anything else, please get in touch.
You know the email (if you don't, see in the registration info below), you know where to find the Administerrerrerr on the Midget Circus.
Some unpleasant miscreant was firing incessant database queries at our server, which forced the Legal Department of our hosting company, via their Abuse subdivision, to shut us down. No I have none.
All I can do it button the hatches, and tighten up a few things. Such as time limits on how long you may take to compose a post and hit Debauch! As of 24/01/10, I've set that at 30 minutes for now.
To restrict further overloads, any unregistered users had to be locked out.
How do we know who is or isn't an unregistered user?
By forcing anyone who wants in to Log In.
Is that annoying?
Yes. But there's only so much the Administerrerrerr can do to keep this place running.

First fix:
Because the board got shutdown again because of a load of database, I had to fettle with the settings again.
As part of that, the server no longer stores what topics you have or haven't read.
IT IS STILL RECORDED!
But now, that information lives in a delicious cookie, rather than the forum database.
Upside: this should reduce the load of database.
Downside: if you use multiple devices to access the board, or you reject delicious cookies, you won't always have that information cookie. But the New Posts feature should take care of that.
PLEASE NOTIFY THE ADMINISTERRERRERR ABOUT ANY PROBLEMS!
- open the menu at the top
- hit New Posts to see what's actually new and browse the new stuff from there
- go back to the Forum Index
- open the menu at the top again
- click Mark forums read
this will zero the unread anything for you, so you can strive forth into the exciting world of the new cookie thing.

Re: A truly magnificent boat and story
No heat exchanger? Isn't that what the water that comes out the two little tailpipes is for?
I dunno, I have no clue.
But it's a looker, true enough! The sort of thing Burton would have picked up Liz from the pier with as the papparazzo try and snap a pic...

Phew... that right there is one pretty boat. It's floating art.
I'm glad someone owns and maintains that, and I'm glad it isn't me.

Re: A truly magnificent boat and story
Sweet jumpin' jebus! That Chrissy is so beautiful I can barely contain myself. I too love the Chris Crafts. A while ago I owned a 1950 42ft Bullnose Catalina. It was a wonderful vessel and as a result, I can strip and varnish brightwork to a high gloss with nary a bubble or fisheye to be found. As satisfying as it is, the work never stops, ever, because by the time you get done, it's time to start all over again.
I've got a boat-fund going again now, 'cause it's too beautiful here to not be out on the water, but this time it's all Tupperware all the time. No time to take care of a proper wood boat, but recently I've run across a couple of smaller Chrissys, Thompsons and Trojans (28'-32') that have made me raise an eyebrow for a moment, but then I remember.........
