LOL Oh yeah!  Still, I have fond memories of staying on my boat the first night I "owned" her. I've not had a reason to look at another boat since. Don, I hope you have the same feeling with your boat over the years. Enjoy!

Congrats Don!! Looks like nice weather starting Thursday, and decent winds for the most part, too! Bring along a thermos of hot cider and you will have a great first trip. If you stop by Herring Bay and need anything just say the word.

Re: I Have Pulled the Trigger !
Great to hear.
You and she should get along fine. You will make dicisions together - she will decide what is to be done and you will decide to do them.
