Das Boot

Boyz and their toyz! The boat finally arrives in town, all nicely wrapped up. Looks sorta funny like this, makes it look huge. Once it got all unwrapped, they started putting in the electronics. GPS, radar and sonar are all installed, so we should never get lost, or caught in a storm or caught on the rocks!!! We'll just stick with that thought! After a short sea trial, actually done on a large lake, it was time to transport to the river inlet to head up the intercoastal waterway. John & Jovan were dropped off and headed up the river towards our new place in New Port Richey. Here are a few shots from the day.

John and Jovan ready for water!
In they go...
I barely make it back for their arrival.
A quick trip back out in the gulf. It's surprising how big those waves really are. After flipping my camera onto my foot, I end up on my ass on the floor of the boat!!
This was the last shot I took from the front of the boat, right before I hit the deck!
Thanks for the warning, Jovan!

The first docking.
The last hurdle, putting it on the boat lift. A little scary the first time.
A funny looking hull on this thing. Here's to a smooth ride!
Stay tuned for the adventure...
