Well if you are sharp and in a nimble craft you can easily dodge all the chit.
Honestly it was fine from Morristown up to about Iornside, then the chit started showing up. Not really all that bad now, Rich has been out a lot and he was saying thursday it was real bad a week or so ago. We basically cruised and puttered, didn't see anything real big. When you see pine branches that are still green you have to wonder who the butthole was that tossed that in the creek.
Water is about the highest I've seen it this time of year in quite a few years, and folks are biotchin' about this, some of the same ones that were biotchin' last fall about the low water, makes you wonder.

well regulation would be nice, considering we have the control devices to regulate it (the water levels)
though more regular water levels (not screaming damaging high the 1st of May and then so low so many have to give up the boating season just 120 days later)
will never happen so long as there's big $$$ interest in Montreal...
it's all about keeping that flooded field navigable without flooding the streets.

I think he's using a pair of Corona bottles duck taped together to spy on that one from the beach. The brown paper bag money from Guido wouldn't even begin to scratch the down money on that one.
Busy figuring all those F&I perks you fleeced out of John Q. Public?

Thanks! Oh, and did I tell you the GPS recall number was upped by 2 MPH on Saturday as well. That's up 2 running up river from the salt water number from last fall. And by some coincidence it just happened to be right in front of Singer, about where 5PM is to set up shop.

Listen to Bird...He knows something....I don't think it'll cover me yet.
Better get in touch with BBlades....You might need it!
Is your boat in the slip, or did you pull it?

PS: Sunny and 88* in Cancun...Off tomorrow morning for the US. Got to rig the bird!

Well now you don't know where we started, so plus two might not mean anything, the old high was in salt, this was fresh water. And that's without changing props or anything, just triming the thing right. I want a few more here, and I'm sure I can find them.
And if not, so be it. The thing is rock solid at speed, more so than the last one even, I'm already a very happy camper. Stock, turn key, reliable ?X? MPH is hard to beat with a stick. Always something faster, but can they do it every day, all day, all season long??? We shall see!
