Boats Up and Running

This update is about the boats.

Paget passed her final Sea Trip last Friday as the new propellor we installed moved the boat at 25 mph at top end with a 20 mph cruising speed.  Just 2 mph slower than the target goal, we’re happy campers and ready to start using the boat around this area.  We are also considering selling her but will take some time to see how much we use her.

And we finally took Apolonia (the 37′ Maxum one) out for a few days.  We motored down to Boynton Beach, 60 miles south of Ft Pierce to visit Diane Burton and Petty Saylor.  They were visiting Diane’s mother in that area.  Enjoyed dinner Saturday evening at Two George’s restaurant, a great spot.  Great cruise but had to pass the Mar-a-Lago compound area and its security.  Not much of a problem and then we had the pleasure of viewing the Palm Beach boat show from the water … amazing … $1.5B worth of boats covering 12 acres on land and water.
