OS,
Same here on the SUNBURN! And I put sunblock 30 on too! Burned about ~ 90 gallons of gas, no damage, and had a GREAT time, except my wife couldn't go!

I burned 189 gallons high test Sunday and 259 gallons Monday. Not to mention about $2000.00 for a barbeque that I threw Sat. When can I do it again.

Yea, my ego took a hit on saturday as well, the wind caught me while docking and I came about 4 inches from putting some nice prop marks in a sailbote that was docked in a slip. I recovered and got tied up...but when I shut the engines down, everyone that was sitting outside at the restaurant started clapping! It's all good... and it could have been worse!!

I also ran out of gas about 1/2 mile before the marina yesterday. Thank goodness for having two tanks!!!

My genset had roughly 42hrs on it by the time I got home. Engines had about 1 1/2 hrs. Used more Diesel in the genset than running both engines.

Sunburn and liver (slight on both), caught a cold that is still bothering me today.

No other damages to speak of

No damage on Saturday in the Donzi, minor damage to the fishboat on Sunday. Hit bottom on that damn steep ass ramp at Halifax in Daytona while loading.
