If you guys do go out this weekend, I hear the trash is terrible on the river because of the recent rains and high water. Be careful.

We got to Gilligans about 3:30. It was kind of dead for a while. It picked up as the afternoon went by. We left about 7:00 to go back to Cobb Island. Put the boat back on the trailer thinking it was supposed to rain Sat. evening Sun. morning. Boy were they wrong again. Boat ran great gauges all work just need to do some minor adjustments on the shifters and throttles.
