Plus you don’t want stone chips in your boat windshield. I put a big beach ball in the bow to keep the cover from stretching down into the bow too far.
I user 2 4' times in my bow.

It pays to take care of Gaylord. He may be a short timer on the island (new management) but he has a huge heart and bigger connections.
Good to know, I work for a company that makes dog treats. I'll bring him some. ;)

Is there any place in ft Lauderdale or Miami that can make stickers tomorrow ? I need boat lettering for mine and my friends boat. Simple lettering will do. This is for identifying for customs and coast guard. Thanks.

Walmart and hardware stores have precut vinyl letters on the shelf. Not pretty but they meet the legal requirements.

If you can’t get custom sizes get regular size to meet legal requirements. We can always redo it later.

Less than an hour from Savannah here, likely ending tonight's journey there.

In other news, looks like it'll be raining in Bimini when we arrive...

It was raining in Virginia all night yesterday night and will continue the next couple of days. As soon as possible cross Virginia.

You must have been haulin' @$$! It's exhausting, isn't it?
Between having to stop for gas every 200 miles, stopping at weigh stations, and driving 65mph, I usually average only 50mph. It seems you did a lot better than that.
