Hey Mark, if he gets in with the group your gonna have to sell that white boat and get a RED one. Maybe we can find someone with a blue boat then you can keep yours, LOL. Get his number GOV. PS, $2000. more for the dry tails! Man I'm pissed! But whatcha gonna do right? At this point I'm all in.Bordentown, he's up by you isn't he? Or is that farther up? Hey demag,hook up with Mook, we usually run together on the river and tow down to the bay. Hopefully I'll be testing props by the end of next week. Gotta work the 4th, fireworks on the fireboat on the 3rd.

i sent mook my # last night, thinking about going down to the cove right below philly on jersey side next to the golf course on the third then heading up to watch the fire works at pennslanding, not sure if anyone closer is having fireworks on the 3rd, if so maybe go somewhere else.

I'll be working on the Fireboat on the 3rd during the fireworks. Mooky(Mark) will be onboard. It's a blast being up so close! The clam cops keep other boaters at a distance for safty reasons but after their over feel free to come along side and introduce yourself. If not I look forward to always meeting other power boaters.

Hey Howard, glad to hear your up and running. 80's? That's great for such a yacht! See you out there soon. Exhaust mods are the last big hurdle, then props and I should be ready to go! Fingers crossed to have it going by the 4th even though I have to work, looking for 120's this time around.

OK, for everyone that boats on the Delaware River and is planning on catching the Fireworks for the 4th. I just got the service requests for the fireboat. There will be fireworks on the Delaware River on the evening of the June 26th and July 3rd. 2 nights this year. Lucky me, I get to work on both nights! YIPEE!!!!

On the 26th the tide will be coming in and on the 3rd it will be going out. I think the Coasties will let you anchor up off the bow of the Battleship NJ outside of Wiggins Park?
