One picture of your last outing.

First time have ever taken a boat out. Beautiful day no one else on the lake. Was great to get some practice in maneuvering, launching and loading.

Even though it was just to get the feel I had a grin on my face the entire time. Anchored for a little while and enjoyed lunch on the swim deck. Water was 74 degrees here in CT.

The admiral had a good time. Looking forward to a few more practice sessions before taking friends out on the boat.

Love those interior colors…
 
A bit choppy on Winnebago today but we made a run over to Calumet Harbor - trim tabs performed well and are worth every penny. Only in the low 60’s but once we were tied up the sun was warm.

On our way back to the marina I got a “Check starboard engine” error on the dash. Got back to the dock, pulled the clean out plug, and found this:

Day trip to nearby SoCal lake. Put 7 more hours on the boat. Passed the mussel inspection finally and surprisingly there was hardly no one on the lake.

looks like we have very similar boats. I am new to owning/piloting. what a great feeling and that grin you speak of is so awesome. Just blasting down the water with the wind blowing in your face. Damn.

sweet. I too am new. Looks like we have identicle boats. Docking was a challenge I took on with confidence. The boats are easy to control from the dock if you are not moving much. That was key to me.
 
Went out yesterday for a sunset cruise with the pups (after the crowds had left).

Coming back in. Sunset was peaceful...

Love it so much that boating season is fully on.

We took our boat and Waverunners out together for the first time and had a blast with my son and his friends.

it was 100 degrees, one thing is certain, I’m not taking the boat out again until I get the new Bimini top installed.
