LOL! For me it was the damn swans. Good times though.


First "real" boat was a Chapparal 198xl. I was 19 and thought I was the shiznit.

Long/short, my dad built a place on a lake in a fly in community in the UP. Pretty desolate. I hated the swans, chased the ducks and was afraid of everything else.
