As I walked the dog a few days ago I saw this in my neighbor's yard / on my neighbor's house. It made my current problems seem really small.

On the same dog walk I noticed that my neighbor's boat trailer (that holds a 20' Boston whaler) has a Fulton folding tongue connectors. I don't know how well they work but am sure they look a lot beefier than the setup on my 2010 mfi trailer.

And it looks like big brother is about to knock out your middle boy with his "strong arm".
Lol, gotta love kid pics! Great set of boys you've got there - congrats.

You better have a tower on your boat @LeeFlan7 . They are going to want to try wakeboarding soon.

The view from our camping spot on Lake of the Pines. No I didn't bring the boat because we brought our rolling condo instead. 1492189081073325724502.jpg
Happy Easter everyone!

Had the boat out yesterday....out in Halifax Harbour. We were literally the ONLY boat on the harbour. Good Friday....water temp was about 1.1 degrees C, or 42 or so for you US folks.

Here's where we pulled up downtown and went ashore for a coffee:



MacDonald Bridge:



And the dockyard. Incidentally, I realized that I've sailed on all 3 of these ships. Ex-HMCS Athabaskan (now decommissioned) HMCS Charlottetown (on the Synchro Lift) and HMCS Montreal.

It works really well and it's very solid. It's made of steel so it's heavy. It's designed for 4 bikes and we've only put a max of three on. It's the only rack that I could find that would hold more then two bikes and is designed for the square rv bumper. I found it at an rv supply store. I want to say it's Camco brand, but I could be wrong. I know it's a rv specific brand though.

@haknslash - What system do you use for your flags?

Looks like their attached to the rear supports of the bimini, but I don't see your cover up.
