Default Brutal Day

Just sold the cafe. Very sad to see it go, has been such a wonderful boat with so many great times on it. One of my boys was 10 days old and one of them was 9 days old when they first went out on it so it's been a huge part of our life.

My wife is scrolling through pictures and we are realizing how many great times with so many great friends we had on that boat.

Amazing how fast 13 Summers and 10,000 gallons can go by.....

Sooner or later many will be in this same position......tough when it occurs, a boat is not just a floating thing with engines for many it is a destination for fond memories and enjoyment.

Where'd it end up going? Hopefully to a good new home. Congrats on the sale! And like Brian said, not too sad for you since you're making new family memories on 8 more feet of boat. LOL

Guy out of Louisiana bought it. I'm hoping it's a good home....


Yes, the tiger will help me get over it but all the memories are on that boat!!!

I was realizing as he was pulling away what a great size the Cafe is.

it is. I don’t notice much difference between the gun we had compared to the cafe we have now but I do notice a significant different between the tiger and the gun/ cafe. Tigers a big boat! Especially when pulling it!!

Once you get a gret season in the 42', you will find that the memories morf into Cig specific rather than boat specific - your family family album just graduated. Enjoy.
