You must have turned around at the hook cause of the south swell.. I headed down south this afternoon, 3-4 ft southeast swell. We missed ya.
Got back early and went swimming for a while, all in all it was a great weekend.

Had my first real experience with current that actually affected the boat. On the way home we ran down the Harlem river. There were 2 tugs pushing a huge barge with a crane on it into the side of a bulkhead so their prop was was perpendicular to our travel. It was a strange feeling to have the boat move so far sideways, expecially in the narrow river up there.
I think at 11 I was still home or just pulling out, who knows.....
When I got on the train this morning Jack says "is your boat really that loud? I was sitting in my back yard and say you heading home around 4."
I didn't think my little mills are that loud

Re: Northern NJ spots
Looks like some cool air from the great white north after the rain tonihgt/tomorow. I'm calling fla tomorrow to line up winter storage! Actually Motor has a 10000 lb lift in his backyard in cape coral he's not using! Was hoping to work on nicks boat tomorrow night and get the radios straightened out , they will be in tomorrow , but wee'll have to see if it rains. Any plans for a run this weekend? Paddy's? Is MTM back together? Mr V on vacation? waaaaaaazzzup?
