first day out!

Here are some pictures of my first day out on my new (to me) boat. It was a little chilly out and not many other boats out there, but we made the best of it. The boat ran great and loved the rough water when we headed out into the bay. This hull seems to ride better the faster you go. Its just too bad I run out of juice at 68mph. Gonna have to fix that this winter ;)

All in all, I couldn't be happier with my new toy.

Thanks. I wish I could say that they were all mine, but the new 48 sea-ray is my fathers.

Thanks. Its actually in hollywood off of Cuckhold Creek. Its my folks house, I live in Lexington Park (10 min. away). I built those huts and help my dad out a lot around the yard in exchange for my "marina fees" as he calls them. He bought the huts from this place down if florida last year. They shipped them up here with all the pieces and I just had to put them all together. Once I learned the trick, I built some awnings around the deck and thatched them as well. It really turned out well and makes the house stick out when you come down the creek. You can't miss it!
