Well said.
I like their shows a lot.
I feel like that since he has crossed over into reality, gear head TV they have given him more freedom to do what he wants.
And, it’s working and he appears to be enjoying it!

on roadkill Freiburger ends a lot of the shows by telling people to drag their junk out, grab a companion and get out and see the world. I always liked that he stresses that it does not matter if what you have is perfect or nicer than everyone else has but take what you have, really nice or barely running, and get out and see the world. we only have a limited amount of time on this earth and it is better to go out and enjoy it than worry about whether the guy next to you has nicer, bigger or fancier stuff than you. I had a 1974 jetboat that I built out of junk parts and we had more fun with it than the guys with $500k boats sitting at the dock. glad she ran good and looks like you had a great time which is what makes it all worth while.

You would have had a blast following us over in your boat!
Hell, leading us!
The Mrs is fine going fast in the smooth but not the rough.
Still haven’t had a chance to light it up across Lake Erie chop.
About as much fun as you can have in a boat!

The adult wading pool at JF Walleyes. There is actually a cave w/a water fall flowing over it. Way cool place.
W/enough alcohol in you, you’d be surprised how long you’ll play this stupid game!
The bar lets you sign the jenga pcs. Cheryl found the one from 4 yrs ago when we were there on our IO 25’ Convincor that I bought to pacify her until finishing my science project. Named it “Her Boat”!

Brings back memories. I moved from MA to PA about 35 yrs ago. Boat a new 22 1/2 foot Bayliner, yep, that’s right, a Bayliner. Docked it in the water at one of the most expensive marinas in South Jersey, located in Margate. It had cement floating docks, power, private bathroom / showers, captains only restaurant and bar. Drove from PA to Margate NJ almost every Fri night after work, stayed till Mon morning on the boat and drove back to work. Loved staying on the boat every weekend. Best 4 years of my life. Met my wife at the casinos in Atlantic City, had my daughter and am now on my 3’rd Baja Outlaw. By the way, still have the same wife, she loves the boating life !

Thx guys!
It is much appreciated!
I am like the black sheep of the family of go fast boaters.
I do a lot on Screamandfly.com due to being OB powered and it is a 99.99% OB site but they’re also 99.99% <20’ day boats.
No one has a cuddy.
So I also post here too where everyone hates OB’s but, I’m OK w/that.
Andd…, the times, they are a changin!
Clearly, I am my fathers son.
He came home from WWII and searched for a hobby, that included all of us, that he could afford and boating surfaced to the top!
Cheryl and I discussed that last weekend.
I remember sleeping in a sleeping bag on the floor of pops 18’ plywood, trailerable cruiser w/twin ‘1953 25 HP E-Rudes, beside my sister!!
And wouldn’t trade those memories for the world!
As Olive Oil told Popeye, “I is what I is”.
We thought that while watching the 40’ Tiara owners across from us that never came out of their boat.
Clearly last weekend was a, you decide weekend w/the rains.
If you wanted to ***** about the rain…, easy to do.
We chose to adapt.
