Yes I did. I went over to City Marina and got fuel. The Harbor Master(Elmwood) gave me a ride to get some oil. Turns out his best friend is dating a good friend of ours. Had a good time, will try to get back down there next year again.

Did you see the 42 staggered white Fountain by the gas dock ?
ed

are you refering to the all white one that has the "42" on the side?
