Jeeez, not another one. After a very rough and dark ride home from the Colonial Beach fireworks on Sat. I have come to the conclusion that I DO NOT like to boat at night that much. I hope whoever it was they are OK.

I have a spare hitch/receiver, just not as much drop. I used it to get the boat back to Pier 7, and thats where it stays. I'm going to order a new one today and will get it to a welder to add more gussets and be ready for richmond on fri eve.

I'm like you dave when its dark, I want to be on land.

Dave,

It was good seeing you out on the river Sunday. I know exactly what you mean about riding in the dark. I went up to DC after Fairview on Sunday. I came home around midnight and forgot how dark the river gets without moonlight. No damage but it was a difficult ride back. I should have tossed the anchor in DC.
