We're almost ready... are you?




Are YOU ready? No really, after this winter it's a good question to ask. Acres of snow. Long, windy nights. Soaring fuel prices--$4+ a gallon for diesel these days...... But she slid into the slings this afternoon, and that's where she'll spend the night, her bow facing the Merrimack. She's ready. Lots of fresh paint. New head deck. New electronic toys. I have a shake down cruise next Sunday. Me and some friends go ground fishing for fun. Just once. Then I have charters almost every weekend till June, then the season really gets rocking. Right now, sounds like the fleet has their up and down days, so we're not missing too much.

I don't know when high water is, but it's gotta be mid-afternoon or so. That means I'll have a week to get my fishing gear together. Gotta get to Surfland and bug Kay about a few things. Boat's ready. I'm almost ready. Are you? See you out there.
