Both Betty and I got off work earlly.The sun was shining,but could see some dark clouds heading.Figured we go for a quick tour of the bay.
Launch went well, so so. Turn blower on,and start.Aw wait a minute,dosent sound right.Crapola,didnt lower the out drive.No prob.Turn off lower,lower the drive,turn on blower again,start.Alls good.
Now were off.Head right to my fav smallie area to wet a line for awhile.No fish.Must be the big boat.LOL
It was not a fishing day for me,it was a tour for Betty and her boat.
The wind was blowing 20k from the south,so I figured why not head and see how she does,as I knew there would be a good chop in the main lake.And there was.2.5 to 3 foot waves. I was impressed how she handled.Betty on the other hand,her eyes were on the hell hold on handle.LOL
We could see the storm was moving into the Barrie area fast so we head for port.Man did it come down.We were told that some of the stitching leaked and it did,but no worries,have a new top being made in the next couple of weeks.
Heres the next bone head move. Put the boat on the trailer first time perfect.Lock her in and pull away.OH OH,seems hard to pull half way up the ramp.Yep,this time I forgot to raise the out drive. Stop the truck,say a few words that cant be said here.Get out,raise with no prob.
Oh, Im going to love this new boating.
Back out in the AM.
