Had a blast , only thing i hit was an 18 pack of miller light , after i was safely tied into my slip for the day
i picked the early morning (10am early for me on a weekend) for both the ride down and the ride back on sunday and the water wasnt too ruff
nice 2 foot chop and the boat did awesome , i'm soo happy boating season is back !!

I'm in hollywood on the Patuxent side. I don't make it to the potomac side very often, but i was out on the water saturday and there was no sign of debris from those high tides we had last week. I can't speak for the potomac side though.

Yeah, i do miss the velocity. I haven't bought another boat yet though. I'm caught up in red tape over my pier permit because my 85 year old neighbor is a C*nt. At this point, it doesn't look like my pier is gonna be finished until late july or early august, so i'm not gonna buy a boat until next year. Luckily my parents live right across the creek from me and they have a 30' center console that they never use. So i've commandeered that for the summer.

No doubt. I took it over to boatel california last week and had the waterpumps changed on the outboards. Told my dad it was an early father's day present, but really it was to make me feel less guilty about constantly borrowing it. I killed two birds with one stone.
