Is this what everyone calls "trailer boating"?

Fantastic trip! I'm really enjoying the read.

We're in Birmingham, if you need anything coming back through PM me and we will be there.

Have fun,

Dan

P.S. What are you towing with?

Landed in Spokane on Saturday June 29th. Flathead Lake was beautiful. Great people, nice accommodations at the Port of Polson Inn, Wes, the owner set us up with parking behind his place about two blocks from the boat ramp.

Stopped at a rest area outside of Billings Montana, the Montana Fish and Wildlife evasive crew was on hand for a interview and gave us a tag and cleared us to splash in Montana.

Flathead was very nice, majestic, and some huge homes that rival homes i have seen on in Thousand Islands and Long Island.

3000 miles and no majors. Truck AC Compressor and one 10 year old trailer tire.

No way we could have rolled so easy and had the boat ready without BRAND X High Performance Marine. Jason and his brother took the time to slow me down and double check everything before we left. Absolutely the very best in HP Marine.

Found my way back to where I came from.
