BoatUS estimates that Hurricane Irene, which ended up being a "low grade" hurricane, caused approximately $500M in damages to boats alone. Tune in tomorrow evening to hear details and to better understand the storm's impact to east coast boat owners. This Saturday on "Dock Talk," we'll discuss the lawsuit involving the creator of Fountain boats. Reggie Fountain wants what is his... or is it? Tune in for more! We'll also take some time to remember those lost in 9/11 10 years ago.

Hooters sells food, Big John doesnt know that

I feel it's necessary to warn everyone about a boat buying scam that I recently read about in the August/September 2011 issue of BoatU.S. Magazine. The scam pertains to an individual who poses as the owner of a boat and is seeking a potential buyer. This "boat owner" sounds approximately 55 years of age with an eastern European accent. While none of the scams have happened to Texans, that could easily change given the large number of Texans who boat and look for boats to purchase online. One of the victims found the boat he was wanting to buy on a popular website. Tune in this Saturday evening to hear more details.

Dear Loyal Listeners, We analyzed the water levels of 13 local lakes over the past 8 weeks. During the first 4-week period, the lakes measured, on average, 1.5 feet below their normal elevation levels. Tune in this Saturday evening to hear about the signifanct changes in the second 4-week period of our study. How has 20+ days of 100+ degree temperatures affected the study's results, and what does this all mean for you and your boat?
